    austrian zep enjoyed looking at your lps . I have most of them . malacum salam / casino records arrived 3 days ago . it is pretty good . i am on the mailing list of a chap here in the UK who lets me know about zep lps coming to market . he can source them . if you are resident in europe not sure if he can help you . happy to give you his email address and you can ask . my favourite boot lp is the dragonfly la forum '77 . sound quality is just wonderful . not millard . think wizardo . fortunate to have a copy of the final option . my kids late 20s / early 30s fight over who gets it when I pop my clogs ...

    Hi John, that would be amazing. i have focused on other records the last few years and my go to contacts for boots have stopped trading. Got an Italian connect but that's about it, would be great to have a new UK one. much appeciated.

    It was a Joke. (Apparently) millions applied and the place was half full of corporate or celebs. You could have turned up on the night and got in. Few people did. I remember " fans" like Naomi Campbell wandering through. A fan?? OK name all of the albums or the band members themselves you twat. If it was such a lottery how come these people got in?? Oh of course it was "The Gig" of the year. The place to be seen. Pathetic really

    20k capacity, 9000 pairs in the lottery for 2 tickets each, 2k kept back for the band / sponsors and their guests. that 20m applicants fighting for 9000 pairs was the shitshow it was, wasn't exactly a surprise. You can certainly argue that a show like that should only have the band guests and not corporates but you'll be surprised to see how few tickets of the 20k capacity are available to normal punters for your average O2 show. Not that it helps those who weren't there, but for any other show in the O2 you are probably looking at 10-15k tickets max available to the general public (excluding band allocation, sponsors, and numerous others kept back for channels like phone company customers, fan sales, venue associates etc). 

     

  3. i don't collect anything specific, but got a sizeable collection of books, magazines and bootleg vinyl. topped up with a rare jorgen angel print, a nice big canvas from the 80 tour poster, a 2nd edition of the famous Randy tutten poster with the green avocado, and various other bits and pieces....i go mostly for stuff that i find visually stunning, so that when the day comes and i have a nice big house with a spare room i can create my own little shrine...

  4. i am off to glastonbury in a few days....can't wait especially looking forward to the old guard....lee scratch perry, bb king, paul simon, but QOTSA was definitely the surprise addition. very not glastonbury to have such a heavy band on, but i am definitely not complaining....now all we need is for the rainclouds to eff off.

  5. my last gig was THAT roger waters gig.....i had a good feeling beforehand that my night would be the one were gilmour would turn up, but to get mason as well was truly awesome. visually definitely the best gig i have ever been to and the sound showed that the O2 itself doesn't contradict great sound. when the helicopter came in the quadrophonic sound was just mindblowing...
