[Fishy]

Yeah some of the clips I've seen have been about Glasgow Apollo and a Manchester  gig with Alex getting wasted on brandy

Is it right to feel as guilty as I do, watching this?  
Surely his 'people' will get this removed

I suppose I shouldn't worry about a millionaire rock star. And it's been my cash that helped make his fortune.
However, I'm bit conflicted. If I watch this, will it spoil the book for me?

Probably as he reads some bits of the book out during the course of the clip..

Right, had not thought about this but just saw a pic of the merch stand. Yes, that's right, a merch stand and it's not selling books - you get a copy upon entry apparently. Which is, by the way, a great way to boost book sales. I cannot imagine people not buying it up front, and then you egt another copy. There must be at least 50K or maybe more people visiting this tour, so that puts him in a very good position sales wise. But I digress..

SO there's a merch stand and they sell posters for USD20 & what looks to be a print for 40. Well that might make sense, a framed pic for on your wall, why not.
But wait, there's caps! Black with some form of logo I cannot fully see. 40 bucks (!) and shirts, one with  print on the front and the dates on the back...45 bucks! So you go there, buy a shirt, go to work wearing it and your colleague says "cool, what band did you see" and you go:" No I watched a guy reading a passage from his book".
And of course, there a shirt with a huge print of the book cover. I mean...really..

(I can't figure out how to post the pic from my Ipad though - sorry).

TBF, there hasn't been been a new pinball machine along in ages, and they still haven't released any ketchup or pickled onions yet.😂

I love the man with every fibre of my being, but I wouldn't wear one of those T-shirts if my life depended on it...

The only justifiable portrait shirt I'd wear is Lemmy's.

I suppose the very fact that we're discussing this online is the very reason why artists have to ply their trade this way these days. Pre internet and streaming, Geddy and Alex would have released a studio album at some point and made a tidy sum. Now it's tour and tat.
