the stand has three different shelves on it. you see a row of cassette tapes lining the top shelf, while the middle and bottom shelves are mostly CDs. the middle shelf also contains a few extra tapes at the end, presumably because there wasn't enough room for them on the top shelf. there is an assortment of artists here, some of which you've heard of, some of which sound completely alien to you. you almost wonder whether some of these are even real bands.
