"That said, when considering ‘what else’ W2 gets a bit stuck. Personally he would probably have liked a high quality coffee table memento but maybe there is more in the pipe ?"
Your wish is my command! The deluxe and delightful edition of Roxy Live: Under Exposed is now both signed off by my publishers and personally signed by Andy, Phil, Paul and myself. I declined to ask Bryan to sign as I didn't want to miss the deadline! Coming in it's own hand-made slipcase and additionally bearing two fabulous high quality art works designed specifically for the project. There will only be 100 copies, so you best be quick, hurry up...
I will post content images and a link to buy as soon as I get it.
Oh, the thrill of it all! xx Cher Bobby, W2 is indecently excited. Where does he send his hard earned wonga and when ? Salutations et bon chance avec le lancement. W2 xx

True2Life wrote: I think we have got somewhat spoilt in recent years by year-in year-out Ferry touring, and so the radio silence has come as a bit of a shock to us all. Strange to think now but for much of the 80s and early 90s Bryan was a studio creature, locked away for an eternity in his studios creating his masterpieces with live appearances few and far between and scarcely a public utterance.
Times have changed however. It will be a year this Saturday (March 19th) since Team Ferry called off all prospect of any live shows in 2021 but with the promise to announce new dates when it was felt safe to do so. Other acts of his vintage, notably the Stones, are dipping a tentative toe in the water of live performances again, no doubt conscious of the ticking of the clock. Perhaps the Ferry/Roxy camp are keeping their powder dry in advance of some form of celebration of Roxy's 50th. I would like to hope so. For if there is no next time, where to go? Hipsters, Salient and the most intelligent of points from True2Life. The remark about the ‘80s & ‘90s was so correct albeit socially he was so active there was never any doubting his existence! “For if there is no next time, where to go ?” is the massive question. Windswept lui-meme finds himself listening to more and more jazz and last night found himself in Ronnie Scott’s listening to the amazing Kyle Eastwood quintet. Whilst there W2 daydreamed that our hero would take up residency - now that would be something. Salutations , Windswept.

Oh, the thrill of it all! There might be an unseemly scrap over this - skin and hair (for those of us who still have any, that is) might be flying! Looking forward to it.

MeOhMy wrote: Sentimental Fool wrote: For god's sake: leave the man alone... Although this is my first post, I have followed the forum for a couple years. Mostly because I enjoyed the exchanges between W2, Oberon and the other leading lights. I am one of the many younger fans who came to the music through his dad and have been lucky enough to attend a few great concerts with him and can fully understand fans’ concerns for the well-being of an icon who is more or less their own age. They know that as you get older stuff happens and are merely enquiring if he is OK. There is nothing remotely bad about that. It’s not intrusive. It’s merely a sign of love. So why this outburst? Cher MeOhMy (brilliant handle), Bienvenue ! Great to hear from a ‘younger fan’ and thanks for your kind comments. Windswept would love to know how you came to enjoy our hero ? W2 has noticed a great cross section of generations at concerts and has oft wondered how they made the connection ? Salutations, Windswept.

Keep your powder dry for just now Windswept. As soon as I have a link to buy, I will post it. I don't know what it is yet, or who the distributor will be. So many mysteries. But as UKRichard points out, with only 100 copies, I figure it'll be a scratchfest!! I'm not even guaranteed one. Swines. xx

Hope it's news that a Viva deluxe with all the trimmings is on its way, it's what I'm waiting for. Make the dream real

£35 for a single record in FOPP record store £31.99 in Sister Ray, Soho. Rather steep, x 8 , for those that seek the whole set.
