[/quote] How much time did you spend researching metal? :sop1antenna: [/quote] Just been a fan 25 years or so, started on the usual, Pantera, Sepultura, Slayer, have about 1500 cd and vinyl albums, sold a hell of a lot more on ebay a few years ago, mainly my rarer stuff that I'd collected over the years, and got great prices for them, that Absurd album, their very first, and was utterly terrible I managed to sell on bids for over £80. In my teens and twenties I was a huge collector, and would pick up anything interesting I saw at gigs or at Kensington Market or Camden, used to go to a lot of signings as well, or take albums along to gigs to get them signed. I was well connected amongst the London metal scene, so always knew a promotor or venue owner and ended up meeting the bands 8/10. I really enjoyed those years, met loads of people I still meet up with, less frequently, but still the friendship is there. [/quote] :bsflag: [/quote] Deary me... Most of the gigs in London, at the LA2, The Underworld, The Highbury Garage, The Borderine, The Marquee, you could more often than not catch up with the bands at the bar, walk right up to them and they'd be happy to have a little chat with the fans. I've still got the pick Kerry King gave me, when I got my face split open during Angel of Death at the Astoria in 1998, and lots of other little bits of memorabilia. I have lots of set lists and tickets in a ring binder, along with corresponding articles from Kerrang, Metal Hammer and Terrorizer, and even have a piece of paper with LG Petrov's home address on, as my band had just done a demo tape, I saw them at The Camden Barfly, and managed to mention it to him, to which he asked me to send him a copy after I drunkenly pestered him for a support slot. Never heard back, but still a cool little interaction. Got tons of little moments like that, that no metal fan now would ever have, the scene was so much better in the 90/2000's.
