Was in Manchester today and popped into Fopp. They had stacks of the Copendium paperback for £3 or in the 2 for £5 offer. Glad I waited to pick it up.

On the upside, with us being such music snobs, we can comfort ourselves with the fact that his appeal is becoming more selective. (a winking smiley might be appropriate at this point but why pander?)

Tightwad. Expensive hardback for me. Yeeaars ago.
Seriously, though, I've a Fopp! handy, but can't be arsed checking it out that often. Maybe we should start a thread for Fopp! bargains to spread the word on decent current deals(?).

I'm leafing through my hardback, at a very leisurely pace. This one, at at my current reading rate, will take years.
I've chosen to dip and cherry pick features. I don't know why - probably to get to some of the more familiar reviews more quickly, but the total unknowns are just as fascinating, anyway.
The writing is absolutely brilliant. Well informed, researched and of a tone of voice that connects, perfectly. Love that piece on the Badgeman. Wiggy must've been blown away on first seeing that, back in 2003 (or whenever it was uploaded).

I was looking for these in the shop a couple of weeks ago and found nothing so they MAY have sold out now

Hi KC,
I truly was blown away by that! I never really knew a) If we were really any good, and b) if I was happy with or even liked my own music, so having one of my heroes validate it was pretty cool (it was also great that The Terrascope/Terrastock folks stuck with us).
I would have bought the book even we weren't in it coz it's full of great stuff.
