I have three.
One from 2nd grade, going on a field trip to the big post office in Shreveport and seeing everything from where stamps are sold to the big machines that sort the mail. I’m a big gerk for how things work.
My second is from 3rd grade, going to the Revel Arts Festival, again, a field trip, and seeing and making what I thought was “real” art for the first time.
Thirdly was when I was 11 or 12 and discovering the Centenary College radio station. That’s where my real love of music started. My exposure to New Wave and the artists that really spoke to me. The Smiths, R.E.M., The Smiths, New Order, etc.
