Zounds!

Stuart Little (23 Jan, 2002 04:31 p.m.):
Europe: Final Countdown is a must.

Iron Maiden: Murderers in the Rue Morgue too.

It's just a question of finding them on vinyl now...

Peepee, are decks & stuff under control? Do we need to book the speakers etc. in advance or do we just walk in, point, take, and leave?
Who's gonna do that?
Who?

Final Countdown is a must - although it didn't have the effect i thought it would in the modern green bar!

 

[chriths]

i know...it'll be me...sigh...

Looks like I should bring my Shot In The Dark 7".
It'll be like Ralph's mobile disco in Dear John.
"Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen, that was Green Door by Shakin' Stevens. Up next is" *pause as he re-places the needle* "Green Door by Shakin' Stevens."

I don't mind. I've listened to that Ozzy single 10 times in a row and liked it.

 

[Anne OMalley]

I've got a couple of rare James Last releases from the swampy end of the 80s. Anyone for James Last rarities?

I can dig up the following:

- "Last from the Past" (covers of 50s rock'n'roll hits)

- "Paddy Last" (traditional Irish airs given the JL treatment)

- "Leave the Best til Last" (Eurobeat collaboration with the well-known Nordy footballer and embearded philanderer)

Not to mention fab liner notes by John Leave.

Worry not! All my Wham! stuff is on vinyl. If you're very lucky I might bring down my Wham! The Final box set, with gold coloured discs

*such* score.

so stu, you were down in bowes last night - any updates for us?

 

[Stuart Little]

The Piper has been Paid

*Yawn*

Paid for Bowes last night. So it looks like this is actually happening. I still had my doubts.

If we need to drop the decks or the amp/speakers into the pub during the day that's fine.
Do we know any more about renting that stuff?
When does the place close?
Will gear need to be collected pre-5pm?

There won't be any staff upstairs till 7pm, but we'll have access to the room to setup or whatever from 6.

There's a kitchen area where we can leave bags/instruments/whatever if we're coming straight from work/studio/wherever.

Yer man said "You only get that deposit back if nothing happens to the place", I don't think he believes he will be returning it.

So steal as many ashtrays, swizzle-sticks and mustard jars you can when Pete gives the secret nod.
