You definitely were not. If you were buying "Sounds", then I don't understand how you missed out on "New Musical Express", "Disc", "Melody Maker and "Record Mirror".

I could only afford to buy one.

I will take your word for it Andy, though I don`t remember it being that way, maybe things weren`t as bad as I make out.

>You remind me of the way fans of Take That reacted when that particular band broke – up.

OK , I may have exagerrated a bit, but I remember being gutted all the same.

AS Robbie said , it is sometimes hard to realise just how little info was out there back in the 70s. I used to wait for Sounds to come out , which was like a bible back then as it seemed to be the only media that would carry any Alice news. They used to have a " News From USA " column , or something...

thats true

I`m waiting for the excuses to start rolling in.

My cats ill.
My dogs ill,
It looks like rain.

I know its not in yer lounge but its as close as yer gunna get.

Nightmare Returns

I`m surprised at the lack of new stuff, but i think the setlist is absolutely brilliant.

Thats no problem, as with DA , it was merely a bit of fun for us who have too much time on our hands.
Unlike the USA, I don`t suppose the promoters have to worry too much about where the albums sold the most as all the UK is readily accesible to all.

Thanks Glam, is there such a person as a ` lowly ` canadian ? oh yeah, Shoey.

Just looked again at the location of the list of states on DA`s list. With the exception of California and Florida , it seems that the rest are northern states, and the mostly populated. Out of the list, only Indiana and Wisconsin are not in the top 10 mostly populated states in the US. One can unde...

The UK has indeed witnessed 54 gigs and not 50 as DA said, sorry mate just added up this list below. From the same period as DA`s list. Brighton 3 Brum 4 Bournemouth 4 Cardiff 4 Douglas 1 Edinburgh 1 Glasgow 4 Guildford 1 Liverpool 1 London 7 Manchester 5 Milton Keynes 1 Newport 1 Newcastle 4 Nottin...

As suspected , the UK favours well in DA`s stats.

All these years Ravenred thought he had a lock of Alice`s hair, when all the time it was yours Andy.

Not unless yer thinking of moving to Skegness*
