Does that mean that you don't actually have it either?Loopz wrote:The discography was compiled not just by me but a few people. One of them was the original Orbital PR man, Jones. If an item is on the discography then it exists. Just because you havent got it, seen it for sale or cant see it doesnt mean it doesnt exist.![]()

Ah, okay!Loopz wrote:Yeah thats right and there are LOADS of items i dont own. I gave up on the collecting a while ago - i think i told you or maybe i told Dog.
I do have a couple of Grails though

Yeah, the collecting thing is very expensive - the Midnight (Sasha Mix) CD single is the only real thing I'm constantly on the lookout for (apart from, possibly, the Lush cassette single)... I do pick up the odd items now and again, but the new New Order releases/gigs tend to eat up my money nowadays (CDR-only releases, unless you want vinyl and/or digital downloads)...

To be honest, the only thing I'm genuinely after now is the 'Chime' cassingle. If I stumble across anything else that I've got on another format and it's not too expensive then I'll grab it, but in terms of looking for specific items, thats really only it.

No idea?
Unfortunately one of my uni roomies stepped on mine only a few days after I had bought it.
Then he managed to get the bloody disc stuck in his cd player all summer. So when I went home for the summer I was left without it.
we ended up jacking it out with a bloody great claw hammer in the autumn months and finally my broken case was reunited with the scratched disc.
But I dont know how many people have this.

i've got it.. it's not that rare.memly wrote:How many people have Insides in the blue and back stripey box?
it pops up every now and then on ebay for about 5 - 10 pounds.
the magenta box with the video is much rarer
and cooler.


It's 106 miles to Chicago.
