I can't believe it's been 22 years! I bought the vinyl of Vs. from Paradise Records. It was the first pressing and didn't have "Vs." printed on it. I think they wanted it to originally be a self titled album at first and were either pressured or changed their mind. Anyway, I lost that sucker and could kick myself for it

Rearview Mirror

I've still never seen concerts sell out as fast as the three shows they played in N.O. on that tour.

That was back in the good old days when the average fan had a chance to get a good seat without having to mortgage the house for a 'package' or some shite like that.

Rearviewmirror is probably one of my favorite PJ songs, period, so it's easily my favorite on Vs. Dissident would be 2nd, then Go.

First song is the best, "Go".

Interesting story about the album cover and the name of the album: Vs

I bought it the day it came out, great, great record. Best track, RVM, but no bad songs on it.

I bought this along with Guns N Roses "The Spaghetti Incident" and the Beavis and Butthead the Movie Soundtrack all together at some shop in Las Vegas. I remember I had 10 dollars and 90 cents left so I bought Vs.on tape to go with the other two on CD...

Thankfully, I stopped making dumb purchases afterward.

I skipped school that day. My friend Jason and I went to the music store in the Hammond Square Mall and waited for the doors to open.

That was a great day. We bought a bucket of KFC and listened to the tape in its entirety while hanging out at the park in downtown Hammond.

Yeah, Vs. did not have the power and the grip on me that TEN had. Vitology was not a bad effort, but I have yet to really get into much of their stuff post 1995.
