Fans Talk - the Book about Live, another project Options

[+Ed+]

So, guys, as I have already stated in the Chad Taylor letter thread, back in 2003 I started my own project over at WFT, where I wanted all the fans to participate and write a book about our fave band> I wanted to gather ALL the possible interviews, loads of pictures and fans' show reviews spanning all the Live carreer.

It was there for about a year as a huge cathegory, but then people started losing their interest in the band and I deleted it all with a heavy heart

But now's the time. After we received the reply from Chad and we got Good_Pain's and swami's posts about them writing a book, it got me thinking again.

My friends, why not start creating a compilation of our own right fucking NOW and right fucking HERE?

We can either have a thread or a whole new cathegory (if Dan is kind enough) and I am eager to help moderating it and keep the project going. But for now we can compile the fan's thoughts and reviews and what not all through the years of following our fave band.

When we get it done (in several months, days or decades wahaha) someone who goes to a gig can have it printed and give it to the band during the meet and greet. OR even before or during the show, as, for instance, my recordings were handed to Adam while on stage during the shooting of Paradiso...

So, my friends, any thoughts? Who wants to participate in the project, help and get it running?

Once again, with this post I can say that I will eagerly moderate and run this project for as long as needed.

Thoughts?

Ray, I am not asking people to write anything yet. For sure I will give it a good structure, etc etc, for now I simply wanna know what people think, who wants to participate and whether to start it at all.

I used to pencil it down at my board and I also have a tiny book with a plan somewhere in my wardrobe. So the structure is no problem. I just want to share the opinions first. Then we will alltogether decide on the format and etc

As stated, I entitled that project:

First there was the word. And the word was LIVE.

But the name is also something we will all discuss. Straight OUtta York, Born in Shit Towne, Selling The Mamma into the Summer... it will all surface... as soon as we start

Good, good! I'm just a junkie for structure and organisation, see. Can't pass up a good oppertunity to tell someone to plan some shit.

Apologies, and carry on.
