I got that book from my daughter like 3-4yrs ago and I've yet to finish going thru it all, I'm around the early 1990s tour section. Tons of great bits in there... -------------

If I received any more prog merchandise/CDs/gear, I'd have to move out of my house! I did start to re-hang my guitars & basses on the walls of our new house. The Manson fretless bass (pictured) was first, to be followed by my Ricky. New Years Resolution = figure out all of Squire's bass parts!  ------------- I am not a Robot, I'm a FREE MAN!! |

No prog, but I did get a couple blaster boxes and some packs of baseball cards, my other collecting problem. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

| ^What is a blaster box? |
Posted By: progaardvark

^Basically a box containing about eight packs of cards. Some products vary from four to as many as fifteen packs per box. They range around $25 to $35 a box. Prior to this year they were around $20 to $30 a box. They're sometimes called retail boxes and I believe they date back to the late 1990s.

Sorry I've been a bit quiet on here all. Been busy with the holidays and all that. :) No prog in my stocking this year but I did get two excellent Miles Davis albums so excellent music is currently blasting from my stereo as we speak.
