Erm....embarrassingly yes! :$

Walking through blackburn town centre in 1997 i saw a bloke playing music through a hi-fi and next taped to the speakers via string were micky n minnie mouse dancing away......the bloke said that they were moving through the vibrations of the music...£1 please, so i thought why not (cant believe i even considered it like!) and bought it, went back home, taped the two pieces of string to either side of my speakers, switched me music on..........FECK ALL!! ....a couple of days later it then occured to me that the guy had actually had the string attached to a wheel that was going round making the bleddin mice move! Bastard!! lolol and why the f*ck i even bought it in the first place i do not know. :axe:

Not really conned, more a victim of my own stupidity :$

I was in New York at the DMC contest there and we had a rare treat at the end, a live PA by Coldcrush Bros. :cool:

At the end of the night, some guy was selling their merchandise and I had a quick glance and asked how much for a record, he said "8 bucks" I said "i'll take one". He said "just 1?" I said "Yeah mate". Before i'd picked up the record he shouted "2 records for 10 bucks" I said "i'll take another then" he said "8 bucks" I said "I've just bought 1, but it's 2 for 10 bucks, so i'll take another for 10 altogether". He said "it's still 8 bucks you want another 1". I said (quite loudly) "Well f**k you, you hustler" and made my way out of there before one of the goons could get me.

I was on my guard, walking back to my hotel in the early hours :ba:

I think the record is a very limited pressing too, because i've never been able to find another online and it's got some excellent tracks on it :cool: :)
