Simple MInds Book - Add your own thoughts

[Negative One]

Read this on postpunkmonks site:

As with the OMD book, the band are soliciting fan anecdotes to flesh it out and this makes the event participatory. The band have put it out there that they want to know how we discovered Simple Minds and became fans. Whether by radio, TV or even the [gasp] music press. All memories of seeing the bands live are wanted, so if you have your own spin on things, by all means get it down and send it in. They want any details you can muster. I can tell you that I got two of my submissions into the OMD book, so the chance to add your perspective on things is very real. If you are a regular at PPM, you probably already know that I have a lot of words I could probably edit down to submit with my thoughts and experiences of seeing the band. Send your words and remembrances to:

An update from postpunkmonk:

https://postpunkmonk.com/2020/09/23/simple-minds-book-heart-of-the-crowd-pre-launches-with-details/

At least now the book is going to press and will be available in a hardcover and limited edition boxed version; like so many books we see today. The hardcover is hefty; 572 pages and it will be published on December 5th, 2020. The price for the hardcover is £45.00/$58.00 and I’ll have one of those in my sights, for certain. As I said, the OMD volume was immensely readable, and a treat for this fan. I expect no less from this one. The limited edition is the deluxe model. It ships for £85.00/$110.00 and has the following bonus tracks:

• Limited Edition Certificate of authenticity each numbered from 1 -1000
• Two rare early black and white photos, signed personally by Jim and Charlie
• A plectrum [a.k.a. a guitar pick to Americans] made for Charlie for the 2020 tour
• Simple Minds 40 Hits tour VIP pass with lanyard
• Simple Minds 2020 fridge magnet
• Sticker Sheet with 24 badges
• Replica Saturday Night Live Simple Minds ticket from 1985
• Replica Simple Minds BBC Radio In Concert ticket from 1979
• Replica Mars Bar Club flyer from 1977
• All presented in a box with artwork

Got mine over Xmas, it's a beast! Packed, maybe I should say rammed!

Going to take me a long time to get through it!
