Yay! Picture disks, normally warped to buggery, but looked well cool. Same with coloured vinyl.

I too had the Powerslave picture disc and it was well warped.Just as well it was never going to be played.I sold my main collectors stuff years ago.I had the soundhouse tapes e.p. and a few others what I let go for xmas cash.My mates got a puma basketball boot what he got Rob Halford to sign when we seen Preist in '88.Idiot takes his boot off and asks him to sign it.lol

[0iD]

I had Maiden Japan on Jap import & The Trooper pic disk single signed too

Sair and I auctioned a load of posters last month. I'm evil..I made her do it

Maiden stuff is ace isn't it

[Zak33]

ooh....Saxon and UFO...my age is showing man....my spines gone all tingly...

what an era of metal and rock. Un believable today. With the death/thrash thats rolling thorugh the world, Maiden and AC/DC sounds smooth and balanced now...but back then...

my mum nearly died a hndred deaths. patches, denims, drainpipe jeans, heavy leather jackets.... Sair's still got a fantastic black leather jacket....weighs more than her...and me actually. Metal badges....

I gotta do some work man......

Duno 0ID, but nice collection nevertheless, if you stick a reserve at what youd like to get, or think its worse and ebay it, you cant lose, either dont sell it, or sell it for the price you want.

Not too sure about anything really, but the rare signed Maiden stuffs gotta be worth a fair whack

My mum bless her wasn't too supprised as mi big brother was already a heavy biker dude when I got into it. Hence he took me to all the good gigs Top chap he was too.

Stretch denimn......probably black........never looked good on my twigletty lil legs. Pinstripe denimn anyone????

[Knoxville]

Very nice collection, the signed stuff will definatly be worth a fair bit, would imagine that it'd all sell to collectors after a couple of relists, personally though i'd keep em, don't get programmes at many gigs anymore so I just grab the t-shirts they sell outside for £5/10 eventually I'll have enough to cover my ceiling

And OiD, looks your your bro did take you to all the good gigs judging from that list, its like a who's who of metal for the last 25 years

I remember most like it was yesterday... Metallica, Ride the Lightning tour, Lyceum Ballroom in London. Still makes the hair on the back of mi neck stand up.

Those 80's metal bands " ROCKED" Albums those days were full of good songs.Maybe 1 or 2 half dodgy but nothing like nowadays.You can pick 4 or 5 good songs off an album and the rest are just there as "fillers"
SAXON was the first live band I ever saw.Still remember it.Getting right to the front of the stage at the city hall.Shaking their hands hands and touching their legs lol.......OOHHH the tight spandex..

[Knoxville]

There are still albums like that today you just have to know who you're lookin for, music as a whole has gone hugely downhill though imo.

[floppybootstomp]

I still got loads of stuff from that era. Lots of vinyl, inc. promos, have double sided 12" of One by Metallica for instance.

First twenty issues of Kerrang, flyer posters for Marillion & Z Z Top.

Iron maiden picture discs, I really must have a rummage.

Anybody ever go to the Clarendon at Hammersmith Friday Nights? Saxon Tavern (Bonnies)Catford? Green gate, nr Ilford? Greyhound, Chadwell Heath? If so, that was me playing the music probably The geezer with the coffin.
