Oooooh!  As I hadn't gotten around to buying it yet, I couldn't resist the Ltd Edition of Ayreon's 01011001 from Amazon UK (see here)

OK, I really wanted the +DVD version, but at 3.96 UK pounds what was I supposed to do?  ;D


If anyone else spots any bargains, please feel free to share with us tightwads  ;)

Update.  This is actually the 2CD + DVD for the trifling sum of 3.96 - I've just opened the package and am well chuffed  8)

I appreciate that most of this forum seem to have all 27 different versions of 01011001 already, so this deal probably isn't much use to them, but for anyone in the UK who is as slow off the mark as I am, go for it!

The same copy as you describe: I have it twice...

How's that? ;)

Haha good one! ;D
I might try that, but I'm still figuring out which one is the male!
I know the ones I've got are female, since they have a hole in the middle...


Ok ok... quick! Other subject before things start creeping in my mind!!!

I don't know if anyone over here is 'into' Coldplay but if you click the link below you can find a copy of the new album Viva La Vida Or Death & All His Friends for a reasonable price.

Enjoy!  8)

Edit: i have to add that this is a Dutch site. It's also in English but then you have to add the .com extension.  ;)

For anyone in the UK aroused by Nicky* and his Stevie Vai fixation, note that Amazon UK have both 'Passion & Warfare' and 'Fire Garden' at a mere 2.98 - bargain!

Personally I'd recommend splashing out a bit and getting 'Alien Love Secrets' for a mammoth 4.47, just because 'Bad Horsie' is a must-have track.

That sounds like noise, Mr Vai, and I want it stopped!  8) ;D ;D 8)


* Apologies if I've ruined anyone's appetite with that!  ;)

If it's a meat dish, I'm OK with it (i.e. ruining)  ;D

Btw Steve Vai is a very spiritual and vegetarian guy. Check out his homesite  http://www.vai.com/

Blimey, I'm listening to my copy of Rush's Snakes & Arrows and I notice you can get the whole thing as a download for £1.69 from Amazon!

Indeed.  Annoying how every cheap deal I find is for something I've already got >:(

Well almost, I've just purchased Tomas Bodin's 'I AM' for a massive £2.37 8)

Let's face facts: there can't be that many albums you haven't already got, so the odds are not in your favor (favour for biscuit-eaters).   ;)

Some interesting stuff on Amazon at the moment, some of which I thought it would be rude not to purchase at the price.  Non-UK residents will obviously need to check their local Amazon, as the international postage tends to wipe out these savings!

Anathema Judgement and A Fine Day to Exit at £2.98

Opeth Deliverance at £2.98

A hole bunch of Paradise Lost stuff at £2.98


It's worth checking back with some of these offers if they show as out of stock.  I wanted 'Judgement' (already got 'Exit) which was out of stock last night, but I checked again this morning and they'd got some more.  Bang - ordered! 8)

I find their music somewhat monotonous, but their lyrics are intriguing.

The other two groups need no further comments  *horns*

I've never heard anything that convinced me to go for a purchase, but I know quite a few people who like them so thought it worth a mention here just in case it was useful to anyone.  I was going to take the plunge and try one at £2.98 but then the Anathema one (which I really, really wanted) came back into stock.  So it'll have to wait until I get some more money...
