Various Purchases

[thehornets]

I still have not updated my website fully, but have finally caught up with all the images of some recent purchases over the last couple of weeks. Picked up a few cheapy weepies, plus a couple of pre-orders.

Ben Foster signed 8x12 from AFTAL RD for 99p

Aaron Lennonsigned 8x12 from AFTAL RD for £3.30

I recently got the signed Killer Sounds cd by Hard-Fi. I also ordered a signed copy of their Good For Nothing 7" single. Great single from a truly brilliant album.

Watford shirt from 1999 to 2001 signed by AnthonyMcNamee for £4.99.

Pre-ordered the Wretch 32 signed limited double cd set. Really impressed with this album. My strays into the world of rap/r&b are limited. My first was Bullet From A Gun by the late Derek B in 1988, and there have been few in between then and now. Wretch 32 has good lyrics and ideas - it's a strong debut album.

Took advantage of some sale prices on some autographed music releases -

The Bees - I Really Need Love 7" Single - 49p



Burn The Negative - How To Weigh The Human Soul cd album. £1.99



Good Shoes - No Hope, No Future cd album. £1.99



We Have Band - WHB cd album. £1.99

The Vaselines - Sex With An X cd album. £1.99



Nice Nice - Extra Wow cd album. £1.99



Funeral For A Friend - Your History Is Mine: 2002-2009 cd album. £2.99



InMe - Phoenix: The Very Best Of InMe double cd album. £2.99

Can't say I've heard of all the bands but it's an impressive set of signed CD's. The footie graphs are a great addition to.

Nice one Nigel you have been busy with the Wallet :^O, im not to old but can only say ive heard of Hard-Fi who i think are great, but then again im not a massive music fan but they all look great signed, bargain with the Lennon and Foster photos too, Hoping to get Foster this sunday when we play westbrom (ive been told he is a great signer and lovely bloke) so fingers crossed

[thehornets]

#9 - Haha! That wil teach me not to look closely. I thought the sig looked a bit wrong, but the pic did look like Ben, and I trusted the AFTAL seller and assumed it was rushed. I can see where both he and I got it wrong. Funny. The Wretch 32 pre-order sold out quickly.

some nice buys Nigel and at some bargain prices too, have to admit to not having heard of most of the bands though

[thehornets]

When I was single and going to gigs each week I always checked out the support bands, and listened to radio shows like John Peel to check out new acts. These days I am lucky if I get to one gig a year. 🙂 The internet has been a brilliant way to check out new bands, and in the last few years I have crossed it with autograph collecting. If I see a band promoting a release with a signed version, I will check them out on youtube, their own site, or other places, and if I like them pick up the signed release. It's been a fun way to find out about new bands as well as pickup signed offerings from bands I already enjoy like Hard-Fi. I love the diversity of music and it's power for storytelling or getting a message across, and the creative way people approach it in so many different ways. I often find that many bands who are under the radar of chart listeners produce some of my favourite music.
