bobby dazzler Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) A Japanese version of the criminally underrated 1981 Bee Gees album "Living Eyes" on CD. £1 in Bishops Stortford. I already have it on normal CD and Vinyl but that's not the point. Edited October 1, 2019 by bobby dazzler Quote

I think it's personalised (to Dylan, IIRC), but still. I was at the Waterstones in Leeds for Foley's book signing of Tietam Brown. We had to queue for over 3 hours for the pleasure of having a very miserable looking Foley pose for a photo of with me and my mates. Thinking about it, back then nearly every camera had a flash (no smartphones back then) which must have battered Mick's eyes. I said to him "You look pissed off Mick" with which he replied "I am,but not with you guys"; Quote

I said to him "You look pissed off Mick" with which he replied "I am,but not with you guys"; Same tour, met him at Forbidden Planet. Can confirm was a miserable count then. I was a huge Foley fan then, and he was the first Wrestler I’d met. Thankfully he remains one of the worst celebs I’ve met. About 4 years ago, a local charity shop had a bag in their toy bin which contained an Ecto 1, Stay Puff, Egon, Ray, Winston, their accessories and some ghosts from the Kenner like. Asked me for £2, gave them £5. All were in played with but very good condition. Quote
Paid Members BomberPat Posted October 2, 2019 Paid Members Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) He was a miserable sod when I met him as well. Meet and Greet before one of his stand-up shows, so the whole thing was very perfunctory and mechanical anyway, but just seemed to put zero effort into pretending that he was interested in people. I don't know how many nights he'd already been touring, but just that one parade of neckbeards, black t-shirts and checked shirts was probably hard work enough, in fairness. I did laugh when I got home and realised that he'd signed my photo, "To Patrick, Mick Foley", while my then-girlfriend got, a "Nice to meet you" added to hers. Wasn't nice to meet me, obviously. Back on topic, one of my best charity shop finds was a completely untouched 1989 Ghostbusters colouring book. Edited October 2, 2019 by BomberPat Quote
Factotum Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 I think I am one of the few people who had a good interaction with Foley. He was friendly and quite chatty. I should clarify I am not a woman. Quote
Keith Houchen Posted October 2, 2019 Author Posted October 2, 2019 Look, I know charity shops help smelly tramps but Foley has his own thread. No need to stench this one up of stale piss. Quote

One of my worst was when I was a kid, my mum bought me a Where's Wally book from the local charidee shop. I opened it, only to find Wally had been circled on every page. Quote

Paid Members Cod Eye Posted February 4, 2020 Paid Members Posted February 4, 2020 @Ralphy, if you get any horror collectables, like NECA figures or vintage posters then let me know. As long as you mark-up isn't too big! Quote
