    Wow, this day has gotten huge, I remember when albums used to get this fanfare, remember patiently waiting for a new album, but beforehand the new single/video was released. Bands like Def Leppard and Van Halen used to get weeks of coverage leading up to the album release.

    Check out this 3" turntable by Crosley, they even have major band record's to go with it, a record day exclusive.

    I'm thinking about getting the DIO Picture Disc, I saw him several times over the years, he was a great performer. The Last In Line Tour was amazing with 15' tall robots and laser beams shooting everywhere.

    And if I'm lucky I might find Prince's The VERSACE Experience: PRELUDE 2 GOLD Tape. Limited to only 4000 cassettes.

    Nice, I won't be able to participate. Bloody exams man. However I'm ordering a couple vinyls through bandcamp.

    Good hunting!

    Where from and how much is postage? I saw something I fancied on Bandcamp but it was from the USA.

    I was looking at Paradise by Matson 2 from California. Unfortunately I blew all my cash yesterday on a PX505 :biggrin:

    They're in town in a couple weeks, maybe I should go covert and bring down a recording Walkman and get you the show. As a sidenote, they will be at world famous First Avenue, some will know it by Prince's Movie Purple Rain....

    Nah, save the equipement for a grateful dead reunion tour.
    I'll support the artist since they're independent. Hopefully I can scrounge the cash in time for the vinyl release.

    I feel like these guys would put me in the front if I showed up with my little recording AIWA and a couple of mics in my hat. I don't record shows, sometimes I take photos but there were a couple bands, TOOL and Kraftwerk that had 1 strike and your out, they did not want any photos or recordings. Back in the 70's and 80's they used to frisk you at the door for cameras and recorders, somehow the weed always got through though.....
