Images of items I have purchased (except trainers [no feet pics])

[Malevolence]

Waited so long for this. It will have been 15 years since John last played with them.

A mate mentioned this, just checked and, unless I'm doing something wrong, it's over £200 a ticket. **** that!

 

[Dark Side]

Thanks mate. Ordered from Asia I assume?

No problem. I bought it from local store in Serbia but I believe you can order it online.

Exactly. One of the richest bands in the world and they're charging that much. I know some of that will be down to the venue, but jesus christ. £90 to stand, £200 to sit. I didn't get one out of principal (and because I can't afford it). I did buy tickets for Pearl Jam in Hyde Park at £85 each, but that's more of a festival and it's being supported by the Pixies. To my mind, that's worth more.

Don't think it's so much the venue as they are also over 90 quid for standing in a park in Glasgow. There are no living artists i'd pay that to go see.

Fair enough! That makes it even more irritating.

I know what you mean, but there are so many artists that I wish I'd seen and they've died in the meantime. I don't want to waste my life not seeing them, and RHCP was on that list until I saw the prices. I'd love to see Rage Against the Machine again and any of the grunge bands that are still around (Stone Temple Pilots, for example).

We managed to see BB King before he died and that was great. I saw Motorhead and Soundgarden not long before both Lemmy and Chris Cornell were dead, and I was really happy that I did.

Snap!, managed to get two during the first presale. Seen them twice now but never with John. Will likely be the last, they aren't young, and who knows if they'll hit the UK again?

Not bothered for the support acts mind you.

Nice desk! If you don't mind me asking, where did you get it?

 

[Dark Side]

Hi, thanks. It's a ~12 years old simple custom made desk with a box to hide all your hell of a cables

Huh, I'd assumed it was an IKEA.

Leftovers from a kitchen renovation? What's the dimensions of it?

 

[Dark Side]

It's a small desk, 120x60 I think. I'm not home right now but I can write exact dimensions tomorrow.

That's a very clever way of doing it!

Problem is that you're still seeing the cables i guess, whereas the above solution covers them completely.

Being a tall git though i'm not sure i'd have enough leg room with the fake back and only a 60cm desk!

I say that like i have any kind of cable management, my docking station is sat on the floor with cables all over the place

Cheap little mechanical keyboard with Outemu brown switches. Not going to match some of the keyboard gods on here but I'm happy with it for the £59 I paid

Keyboard gods? These the ones that lube their switches...

Yep, they get very excited by such things

What keyboard is that please? Does it have a detachable cable?

Phantom RGB Mechanical Keyboard | Tecware Keyboards

No detachable cable I'm afraid (out of interest, why do people want this?)

Was not going to bother posting this as it's just a gilet but the fact that it has 4 inside pockets and is well suited to all seasons and as such, finding something like this had proven to be quite difficult until I was in Bluewater the other day and tried this on...

Most gilets tend to be either too puffy, too shiny or lack any interior pockets but over the years I've found a handful that offer just the right balance but then swiftly stop being sold the following season lol.

I'm very tempted by the MX Keys Mini they just released! I might go for the white one though, to go with my white mouse and Magic Keyboard it would be replacing.

I did look at the mini and was so close to ordering until I realised that the lack of a numpad would make me want to tip over my desk

I don't know what you mean by being forced to use BT though? I have a unifying RF receiver with the MX Master 3 and the same receiver paired up the MX Keys. BT is optional for other devices like with my phone and laptop etc. Can use both BT and RF at the same time when switching between 3 connected devices.
