Where can I find.....

[Car Guy]

an old 'boom box' similar to the one pictured..??? I only need one for a few hours one night and will pay for one if I have to (wouldn’t want to spend a lot) but would really prefer to 'rent' one if at all possible.....

I just figured you were looking for a costume accessory. Sorry G!:headbang

[Lash]

Have you gotten in touch with Run DMC to see if they have one?

I just called a few minutes ago and theirs is in the shop getting fixed......:goof

I like those old style boom boxes. The ones they make today look like some alien pod, or the head of some Star Wars droid. Not a straight surface any where.

I remember them being called that back in the day. Might just be a regional thing like bubbler.

I think this one is the most bitchin!

[-stew-]

I don't think ghetto blaster is a regional thing. You're gonna need a lot of batteries if you get a good one.

Get the Lasonic you can put your iPod in. No need to screw with tapes.

[Rocket Power]

Try goodwill stores. I've seen boomboxes there in the past

I'm refuse to spend $175 on a Halloween costume prop that will used for a maximum of 6 hours......:)

That's what I was thinking too, hopefully I can get lucky and find one for not a lot of $$$......

You going as a breakdancer or something?

[94greenbandit]

I hear the Beastie Boys might still have theirs

Break-dancer/80s hip-hopper/etc; I already have the Adidas track suit but still need the boom box, fat gold rope chain, hat, period correct Adidas shoes and maybe some sunglasses. I found this picture and it sums up what I'm shooting for......:devil

Lol. Swing buy and I can teach you some basic moves so you can make it more authentic. hahaha.

I looked like that, minus the chains, for years. hahahah. No serious.

Old habits die hard. This was just a couple years ago and I'm still wearing Shell Toes.
Doing a flare...

I've always wanted to learn break-dancing (I'm now 29 years old) but the chances of hurting myself now are far too great.....:durr

I'm gonna be 30 on Sun. That photo was just taken about 2 years ago. I can still do about a half of a flare (one of the hardest aerial moves to do) right now. I used to be able to do full ones NON STOP. I am out of shape (I'm about 15 heavier now then i was at my prime) now though and that's the reason I'm doing the P90X program. It's not that I no longer have the skill 9 I am def. rusty though) but my body is physically not able to do these things in the shape it's in.

FYI, you get hurt breakdancing even when you're young and it perfect shape. I almost broke my arm once, and you always have countless bruises and aches and pains.

Ok, sorry for the thread jack. Awesome idea for a costume. I might have to bite the idea and pull my old Adidas Suit out for Halloween. ;)
