I think I've won unless it's another Deborah from Cornwall! Can't quite believe it as I never win anything...

Regarding the 'lost tape' footage. Someone has kindly just sent me this flyer for the concert:




A minor point is that it suggests the date was Wednesday 10th July 1985 (not Sunday 7th).

I have also received some setlists from '91 and a flyer for a previously unknown '93 show (assuming it actually took place). Look at PulpWiki if you are interested.

Interesting as the 10th July 1985 is the date referred to in "Tunnel" which Jarvis later revealed was the date of his first contract with Fire Records.

 Isn't that obscure fact covered in Sturdy's book. I'm sure I've read it somewhere unless it's just a case of daja vu!

Is there anyone on here who like me DIDN'T win a signed poster?! Let's hear from you. I'm beginning to feel left out!

Yes, interesting. I should have spotted that!

I'm sure it is in Sturdy's book. Jarvis explained the significance of the date in the unused sleeve notes he wrote for the Masters of the Universe compilation.  You can read them here.

Strange one about the date - I'll have got July 7th from the listings in the Sheffield Star from the time. Unless I wrote it down wrong or something...

I was just wondering, is the first part of the DVD the 90 cut. Is that the same version as shown on Sky Arts last year?

..and yes! I'm well aware there is another few hours on the 2 DVD's of top stuff.

I haven't watched it yet, although I am under the impression it is a whole new film covering the period where the last one left off. Shouldn't have been shown anywhere yet.

The first disc (the 90 minute film) is a combination of the two shown on Sky Arts, from what I can remember

 I didn't win one! Ah well, I have a fully signed (minus Mark) Common People night cd to keep me happy lol. I say fully signed, as Mark was yet to become an official member.

Nope...I only got a signatureless poster too. I have a copy of "Further Complications" signed to me by Jarvis, but am yet to get something from the whole band. :(
