Looking through some old photos at the weekend, I came across two that made me smile. I took a couple of pictures of my 4th year hall of residence room that I had in my time at Brunel in Uxbridge. This would have been in 1992. I was still seeing the band at this point, but less frequently as my interest was seriously on the wane.
I must have tidied up before the picture, I know it's still a mess, but I'm embarrassingly untidy!!
The Raven was painted on an old sheet. For the Bear Cage painting I may have run out of inspiration or more likely paint! Willian L. Shirer's 'Rise and Fall of the Third Reich' is on the book shelf, which remains to this day the best book that I have ever read.
More Stranglers, The Jam, the mighty Kraftwerk from the Man Machine period and a gig poster from an early gig by the reformed X-Ray Spex (1990?). From the albums on the bed, it's clear that the Madchester/baggie scene of the day passed me by completely!
These days I still have some gig posters on the wall, but now they are framed... a concession to middle age.
