I would love to see his Replicas tour but unless he comes to Tenerife I think I´ll miss that one.

What we do have to look froward here is the car crash that is Whitney Houston mmm interesting!

I missed that one Mike, but I was pleased to see that he has announced that he is doing another Replicas tour in March. Although he says he hates doing retro gigs he does a bloody good job of it!
Look out for the Replicas tour hitting the Indigo2 mid March, maybe even see you there.

Great choice Norman,I remember buying one of my first picture disc singles “Are Friends Electric” which had his eye on one side, and a close up of the “Replicas” sleeve on the other. brilliant images.
How was the “Pleasure Principle” tour ? would have loved to of seen this , did you go to the “Replicas “tour last year as well?

I saw Gary Numan at the Indigo2 last thursday on his Pleasure Principle mini tour, but a week before I went I raided my old vinyl boxes and pulled my old albums out. I’d forgotten how the Replicas album cover had drawn me into the Tubeway Army / Gary Numan bandwaggon as a 15 year old.
The cover has Gary Numan standing in a room with no expression looking out into the darkness of the park below with his eerie reflection in the window looking directly at you. Fantastic!!!!

Thanks for the picture of Debbie Harry… brought back schoolboy memories… sigh.

Here’s my twopence worth. Supertramp’s Breakfast in America, Meatloaf and Bat Out of Hell and Elvis Costello with Oliver’s Army.

Phil, the King Crimson album was called “In The Court of the Crimson King”

Do you remember the pair of girls briefs inside the sleeve of Alice Cooper¬¥s ” Schools Out” album?

He always had good album sleeves I remember “Muscle of Love” in a cardboard box and “Billion Dollar Babies” with it¬¥s giant dollar bill.

What was the King Crimson LP with the big gaping mouth?

And loved Alice Cooper’s Schools Out with the desk that opened covered in school-boy graffiti.
