Shug the tape's in the post, I don't know how long it'll take it to reach you. Just whatever you do don't claim it's worth over 60 kuna (although it's priceless)or it'll have to go through the customs and that would take even longer ! Cheers & kisses
Shug, you are a fooking God mate. Mum woke me up at 6:50 saying "Ben, you've got a package in the mail..." and I knew what it was ;) It's on the TV behind me right now, upto Vanishing Point from 1988. Honestly Shug, this is just too nice. If you EVER need something been "offed" then you know my address.

Nae bother me ole fruit n china, I'll do you the Reading 93 vid whenever I get round to finishing all these videos.
The next batch will be sent out at the weekend, apparently there's a few parcels down me nans for me to collect
The next draw will be Saturday afternoon for the next 10.
Another grateful recipient, here too Shug :)
I got your note about sitting down with a beer (heck 6 beers even !) to watch it from start to finish, which is exactly what I'll do tomorrow night after work.
Thanks ever so much, mate : astounding turnaround time (sent it Friday, back on Tuesday 
)
Full review to come :)
A thousand million thank yous, Shug. I got my video in the post yesterday. He's only even gone and put proper annotated labels on the box and spine too. What a professional! I'm filling up now.
Frustratingly, I've got to get all my end of tax year accounts paperwork out the way today so hopefully I can relax tonight and watch 3 hours of genius with a beer and a fish supper.
I promise to write a review when I've seen it, probably starting in the style of a bad NME writer (there are good ones?) and ending like the Mirror's 3AM girls.
Well, what can I add, but thanks so much for the video, Shug. My parcel arrived this morning, and I hope to be able to watch the entire tape by the week's end.
First class, man! I owe you several ones

Shug lad, you're a legend. Got the vid on Saturday (sorry about the late reply!), and I did exactly as told: cracked open a few cold ones and chilled with the Order. Will send some kind of goodies to you in due course (i.e. when I get off my lazy ass...don't go holding that breath now...!)
Cheers again matey

July the 10th Myself and Donovan land in New York, staying there till the 18th I think, then off to Seattle for the Celtic v Man Utd game at the Seahawks Stadium on the 22nd, we'll be departing on the 24th. We put a roll call up a while back, we'd like to meet as many Onliners as we can, I think Jim Giliberto and a couple of others from the New York area are gonna try and join us for a cold beverage or two, and we're definitely meeting up with Jeff, Bri Go, April, AgentWood & Green in Seattle.
Again, all those who enjoyed the video, nice one, and it is best if you follow the instructions in my wee notes:D

did i put that? what am i like, my sincere apoligies. :ah; to be honest shugs i was the little worst for wear at the post office with it being a saturday morning (i'd bin drinking the old 'k' cider the nite before and feeling a bit shaky, disorientated and all that). if you notice i even put the post code on the back of the jiffy bag because i could'nt remember putting it on the address paper. and i was gonna send a self addressed jiffy bag for you, so you see, i got it all wrong. smack legs for me then. i'll make it up to you shugs, when i get you a little treat;)
good luck for tonite shugs, give em 3 of the best celtic...

Aye, definitely, the more the merrier
Brian G is hopefully arranging a Madchester / New Order night at one of the clubs in Seattle, I'll have to e-mail him and see how he's getting on.

why? you want tapes of him having a go with his bird??? 
you sick, depraved individual
Thanks Shugz!
Got the video on Saturday and we watched it in one go - brilliant - lots of stuff I didn't already have. Highlights - Confusion, Face Up & Bernard's dramatic Swedish fall!
Many more hours of pleasurable watching to come!
Ness
Thanks for the video Shugz, watched it this weekend, 3 hours of bliss. It's brilliant to see those 80s TOTP TV clips again after so many years a distant memory. In the dark ages before I had a video recorder I can remember having my tape recorder up close to the tv speaker to audio record them - we were poor then, but 'appy.
It's funny seeing the steady lowering of Hooky's bass as the years progress, he soon won't be able to get back up again. "Thieves Like Us" done on TOTP is pure class, I haven't seen that for 19 years! How did Bernard get into those jeans ? Not only has he solved the debate as to which side he dresses, he's also answered the cavalier or roundhead argument. Watching Bernard acid dance to "Fine Time" made me think how far they'd come in just under 10 years since "Transmission".
My favourite stuff has to be the 5 songs from "Music Box"? I thought I saw everything they did in the mid 80s, how did I miss that programme - was it satellite only ? Was it part of a longer programme? Barney on his cowbell, Hooky on his mini-drums just like old times.
PS, love the hidden track right at the end of my tape. Did everyone get that ? One minutesworth of Countdown. I got the conundrum - it was Confusion.

Loved the bit about the countdown conundrum
The Music Box stuff was from Belgium (Cheers Marian) and yes it was satellite only as far as I know called ROX BOX, I have the full concert in the flat somewhere! If you want it, send me yer details again, and I'll send it whenever this project is finished;)
As fer Hooky's bass lowering, I hadn't noticed, but I will check later
Glad you and Ness also liked the vid

Originally posted by Spotnick So, who's paying to get Shug a NTSC vcr? ;)
Remember, I'll be Stateside in less than 3 months, any wee gifts greatfully received
I'm sure there are a few dodgy Onliners that can get me one straight from the back of a lorry:D
Myself and Donovan will be doing a roll call (again) very soon, one for New York and one for Seattle, to see who's all gonna be up fer a beer, where and on what date. We are also planning to bring some New Order gifts with us for you poor bastards over there:D
Originally posted by Spotnick I'm sure Jeff has good deals on VCR at his job
I was gonna say when we were over there that Donnie could rob him (cos Donovans a Cockney lad, a bit werrrr a bit weyyyy know wot I mean) but I was forgetting we're not going Texas, Jeff's coming to meet us in Seattle
