Just to s...

Re: Fanzine "Beyond Belief" on Ebay

One of the many highlights of Beyond Belief, besides all the insider info Mike provided, was the sheer profoundness of Dave's reading of the songs. I can't recall the number of times I read the magazine at breaks at work and then rushed home to wallow in the music, (usually with headphones on so I c...

Think I have some of VG's photos from these shows, I'll see if I can scan them in . All 6 RAH shows were recorded of course, cos back in those days there were more people recording than me and Funky Gibbon :wink:

I'm in row J so I don't want any noisy chatter (or singing) behind me whilst I'm manipulating Mr Marantz !! I think the making of setlist notes is acceptable though MOOT !

Re: November Song Tally - What's Yours? (POLL)

I assume second hand (or war) from recordings doesn't count but it's great that so many have been recorded by several enthusiastic and enterprising souls - thanks very much to all concerned and my answer is 0 just to rub it in , eh BA !!! :evil:

I made a compilation for VG and a few select UK folk of the 2012 SSS UK tour and I'm supposed to be doing one for the 2013 one as well when I get around to it, and no doubt will do the same for this one. Incidentally, how many shows are known to be "unrecorded". I think I may have access t...

Like John, I've hassled Milo for setlists on a regular basis but did meet him in a pub in Sheffield before the gig in 2002 and offered him a drink and he stared at me for just long enough to unnerve me before politely refusing. And I didn't get a setlist that night either. He looked like someone who...
