Just had the best night of my life. Anybody that has been friends with Joey (ramone) or have held a conversation with Jerry Nolan just blows me away, and I am not easily starstrucked, when it comes to conventional top 20 US/UK artists (my line of work). Whit a little bit of luck I will have something to show/share from it.

That's really cool... Would you share these songs with us after you get them?

I have met the Ramones a few times.

I think you got it for a very reasonable price, I paid £110 for my copy earlier in the year (record fair) and and I has pleased with that, so £68.49 seems a bargain.

Personally, I love my copy.

Talking of Billy Bragg and Placebo - I got sent one of the very few PROMO copies of Les Inrockuptibles "The Smiths Is Dead" to review for a radio show in the UK. Afterwards, I sent it to a fan in California. God knows who has it, I have no idea, probably worth a few quid now.

I received my cd and 7" set of "AYNIM" but have had great difficulty yanking the cd and inner from its outer sleeve, as it's such a tight fit. Each time I try I am unsuccessful and give up in fear of causing damage to the packaging and / or disc. Anybody else had this problem? Also, any tips for a smooth pull out method would be gratefully appreciated, so that I can actually play "CIP". Incidentally, we never had this problem with Decca's previous offering which had a similar design style, so please don't suggest that I eat more spinach etc!

This was reported when the single was released , everyone has had the same issues , it seems to be tight taking it out for the first time after that its ok ,the problem is quite a few people have ripped their copies when they get taken out ... the plus side is that they are will be worth more perfect and there will be less copies
