    Think I was banned roughly 8 of those 20 years...

    I will say I miss when it was a crew of 500. More tight knit, more polite, etc. Plus all of the actual info we'd get here at least a day before it was made public. Felt like you were an insider.

    Still a place I frequent, obviously.

    This actually came out in 1995 after doing some math in my head. I was older in 1999, then I was, when I started listening to this album. East 1999 was a street in Cleveland, I think.

    Summer '95 -- which parallels Shaq getting swept.

    The street is 99th. Nineteen was added.

    Funny that Prince's song wasn't 1999 either.
