So anyways, more about my band director. This happened today.
“Speaking of ‘In Sync’... As in the 90’s band...” he says. “When I was a kid we had these thing’s called chip players, before I-Pods, we used them to play music.” (Keep in mind he’s a Millennial.)
He makes a gesture to show the size of the object, about 3 inches long. “They were this big, and cost about 12 dollars. In order to play music we had to get microchips, 5 bucks each.” He moves his fingers together to show the size of a microchip. “They played about 30 seconds of a pop song, with terrible audio. And they were a big deal in the 2000s. Like this:” he cups a hand over his mouth and hums into his hand, doing an imitation of thirty seconds of a song with bad audio. “For 5 whole dollars!”
Then he deepens his voice and his blue eyes are full of mirth and he says: “In my day we had chip players and we were happy!”

“Ok Boomer,” a band member says. We all break out laughing.

Hehehe, I remember the existence of them, but, I never got a walkmen, or discman, so having one of those that wouldn't even play a whole song seemed stupid to me. I only ever once bought an mp3 player.... like a portable one, and it was like 3 years ago for one of my kids. It broke rather quickly.

I just carry my laptop around like:

As someone who is not allowed to have a phone, I literally used to carry my tablet with me when I did stuff so I could listen to music. After I got an MP3 player it changed everything, especially as someone who really enjoys music.
Anyway, a chip player does sound stupid. Who wants to listen to half a song?

When I used to not be able to have a phone, I used my tablet for music just like you. And now that I have one... I still use it for music.
I purchased a lot of songs on there so I can’t do much about it.

It would be nice to have both hands free, but I kill myself with headphones on and wandering, they constantly get caught on stuff, IF I even have pockets.
