Talk:Drive-In Studio

Address

An advert exists which lists Shady Boulevard as the studio's location, but it is believed this was a short-term home and never used as the recording studio, and that Easter moved to 4527 Old Belews Farm Road (his parents' home, outside of downtown Winston-Salem) shortly thereafter. Members of the band did stay on Shady Boulevard, as Easter told the Wall Street Journal, to "spin LPs that first night". Seasider53 (talk) 22:57, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

The house at 124 Shady Boulevard belonged to Faye Hunter's parents, and Faye grew up there. Mitch lived two doors down at 112 Shady Boulevard (during his REM days). The 124 Shady Boulevard address was used as the mailing address for Drive-In Studios, but the actual studio was in the converted garage of the home owned by Mitch's parents at 4527 Old Belews Creek (not 'Farm') road. There's a great picture of Faye and Mitch sitting on the front steps of 124 when they were kids. I have pictures I have personally taken of the Belews Creek residence which make more sense to post on this page than the 124 Shady Boulevard house. Threecardhighlow (talk) 20:08, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
