    Here is my tacky Christmas Tree ! :D[/quote:9gaz1c89]
    Tree? Did you actually say "tree"? Where is the tree? I only see ornaments there! :lol:

    Kidding, I know what you mean. Because it all has a story, it’s too special to leave in the box. So you want to show it, look at it, admire it, and remember the story… or tell them to visitors, friends, family that visit your place. I have the same with my Asian and European antique stuffs. Nothing special really, but how I found it with a metal detector, how it took me sometimes 4 days to buy it (happened with a Chinese dragon carpet! And a tibetan prayer wheel too! But I had the best tea meanwhile, liters and liters of it, in the shops lol! :wink: ) and anyway, looooots of stories…

    OK, who brings in the next tree? So sweet to check them all out! :lol:

    Arthurs epic compilation kicks ass.I hope he will do one again.[/quote:3kjtpd8u]
    I will, and it will not be too surprising I guess that it will be called "Metal Live Compilation". I planned it for February 2009, half a year after Epic Live Compilation. Again, year by year, the best Smashing Pumpkins rock songs live, according to me and you, with love from SPfreaks.com. Cool or cool? 8)

    And hello hello to Honeymade Opiate (what a cool nick! :wink: )!

    did you wrap those ornaments or did you buy them? Looks like mini cd cases wrapped on the tree[/quote:1p67e432]
    Buy. We have them in blue and pink. Since quite a lot has changed the last few days, I will shoot a new pic soon. My girlfriend is quite an artist, we now have several (real!) presents under the tree, a string of snowmen lights on the window on the back of the tree, and some more ornaments too… And the rest of the living has been decorated too!

    Pipoka, where is your tree then? Show off time here! :lol:

    That little tree of last_rose_of_summer is so adorable, look at that star on top! Cool!

    is it full of pumpkin CDs? :wink:[/quote:2qwpwez4]
    Yes it is actually. And Smashing Pumpkins DVDs too. That’s why Billy is guarding it on top, covered in Tibetan shawls. :wink:

    With the guitar face plate, still on offer, no bids. When the price stays like this, I might consider bidding…

    I deleted that other one (GLOW without a sticker), can’t find it anymore, sorry.

    And this is probably the one manilla is talking about (price ex shipment)

    I doubt it. Package is very standard already (default livesp.com/nugs.net cardboard sleeve with room for three cds, and a sticker with info about the show). I can’t imagine they would come up with something so specific as a box for the tour.[/quote:2dmbmh8i]
    Same thoughts here, we’ll see. It’s gonna be quite the job scanning that whole set for SPfreaks.com. Looking forward though anyway! Meanwhile listening to it of course! :lol:

    Talking about listening, that Halloween show of the tour is just awesome, and I can’t wait to listen to the Aragon Ballroom, December 8th show! It got so many good reviews! :twisted:

    "That hardly lasted, however, as the striped frontman slung on the ol’ electric and slunk into a hair raising performance of “Soma”, which inevitably brought up a new string of hits: “Cherub Rock”, “Zero”, and “Bodies.”"

    There were several GLOWs being offered lately. This is probably the one without a sticker (reason why I didn’t bid) which I saw go for around that price. At the moment there is another one being offered with a guitar face plate for that Guitar Hero computer game, again reason for me not to bid.

    2 radio shows (Harddrive & Out Of Order, both containing Tarantula, 1 also containing Bullet With Butterfly Wings) from June/July 2007, the release period of Zeitgeist.

    http://www.spfreaks.com/?page=COLLDETAILS&item=2708

    http://www.spfreaks.com/?page=COLLDETAILS&item=2709

    With mixed feelings I put them in the official cd section, as they are internet downloads, burned on cd-r. Radio stations don’t provide cds anymore, and djs have to download their shows, and burn them for keeping them in stock. The artwork is provided on the websites of Westwood One, and can be used to put on the cd-r. I bought these 2 a while ago from a US dj, that turned out to be not that trustworthy when it came to shipping more items and returning money. He disappeared many times from eBay, screaming it was not his fault. Yeah right. Cool As Ice Cream knows the guy also I guess. Anyway, judge yourself, but I think it are real shows anyway from a genuine source, not being the dj, but the radio networks.

    Not bad, not bad… Wonder if they will create some kind of a special box for the whole Tour Package set. :)

    I don’t pay attention to the stickers. That’s why I don’t collect any Israel releases, cause it’s just a sticker.[/quote:l8d6qifv]
    What is exactly the difference between these 2 (both from my personal collection)? I like them very much to be honest, as they are both genuine and rare as f&*^$@#ck… It are the only I Am One cd promos I know… From Israel and from the UK.

    Both stickered.
