Shouldn't have mentioned the Truth era pic with the ice cream van. Now some peeps on FB want me to upload a pic of it up there!

Just got mine in the mail today - a little confused by why there aren't 4 polaroids to a page overall for most of the shots as it would've easily cut down the book's size, more nature shots than I expected as well, but overall it's a rather nice document of the band's journey through the years, really liked Nicky's words about why Polaroids and then visual arts in general are important to him.

That's Nicky - It's gotta be big and pink!

For Cricri:
your chronology is a bit hazy, maybe?
I saw them once more in Milano and another time near Milano after 1994.
Not because I haven't put another ticket stub on my blog yet (if I can find them, by the way) this means they were not in Milano.

Cheers

I'm sorry, Stefano, I really don't understand what you're talking about.

Edit: Ah, I see now. My knowledge of their gigs history is pretty poor, so I didn't know what to think when I read Milan 98 (or 99, I can't remember right now).

For Mafiamonroe:

Milano is a "place" less obvious than Roma or Firenze.
But then I like some places in Manchester too.

It is a matter of tastes, I believe; unfortunately I cannot ask James Ballard if he liked Milano which to a certain extent has some "ballardian" areas too; just to move the discussion back to more apt MSP topics.

Not many Leonardo Da Vinci's Last Supper in places other than Milano, by the way.
