Tedious baiting as usual.

Also the writer of the article needs to look up "tactile" in the dictionary. I'm always surprised how so many people who write for a living or at least with a view to getting published in some form, seem to have such a piss poor understanding of the English language. Tactile doesn't just mean "stuff you can touch" you moron.

My favourite bit.

Or, if you use it as a flip-book, you can watch James Dean Bradfield’s stomach expand in a hilarious manner.

Dear God, really? Oh well, we might get a 256 page book consisting of Wire generally throwing a wobbly at the modern world, then.

Pass me a needle and thread, I fear my sides have split! (well ok, that was fairly chucklesome, but...)

That would be so awesome. He'd be in his element, wouldn't he... inhaling the paper.

Book signing sounds fun plus you only really need to go to one.

Whenever I see the title of this thread I imagine Nicky throwing a couple of books in the air like white doves at a wedding and crying "Fly my darlings! Fly!"

Part of my brain just exploded with excitement at the entirely imaginary notion of Nicky touring branches of Waterstones with his pink guitar, doing a mini acoustic set and then sitting down to sign books and take pictures...

Which would never happen, surely. But still...

Regards,
Marwood.

I hadn't thought about that. Fingers crossed, it could be brilliant.

Nicky would be in heaven with that, especially if they put him in the Paperchase sections in Waterstones for the signings.......

HEY I WANT THAT! it means I need to save some money, I'd buy a copy for every signing and give it away to the local libraries. of course I wouldn't do that, i'm too skint and i will be too skint in the future. i knows dat!

hahahah I love this! I had a similar image in my head when they were flying back from their gig in Poznań, Nicky with a bag full of glitter throwing it everywhere to cover the city and sparkle. I suddenly started liking Poznań
