Elevator music springs to mind.
No we think he's gone a bit past his sell by date with Focus 11. Time he retired me thinks!!
Never the same without Akkerman
Seen them both lots of times at The Stables MK. Lovely small venue where you are up close and personal with the acts - not now of course!

Both very very good live.

I recognise the BMW but what are the other 3? One will be your GSX-R presumably - the blue one next to the Beemer?

At work today. Hours are 11-3! Mainly meetings with conservators to discuss material handling as some of the stuff I digitise is hundreds of years old and you can’t wipe that type of material down with anti bacterial!

Trying to find a way of adding all 14 Arisen books into my library without chucking hundreds of quid at it, and failing badly.
I need to find a bookshop that's shutting down. :silent:
