The always difficult-to-please Chris Sarre called this a “Top Five” show last night, and I’m flattered but have to agree with him! Thanks to Rob from Visions In Sound, and Harrison the Man Metal Man for showing off your music and entertainment collectables last night. From rare CDs, autographs and Australian exclusives, to board games, books and odds n’ ends, we saw a lot of cool items with great stories behind them.
Hightlights:
- Colm Feore autograph and story
- Custom Lego minifigs
- Stop-motion transformations
- Gimli the Cat
- Sealed action figures
- Vintage Atari games
- Fender acoustic bass formerly owned by the late Don Simmons of Helix
Thanks to all who watched and participated live in the comments. Apologies for the sniffling. Those board games were dusty and triggered my allergies.
No show next time, time for a break! Thanks for watching and we’ll see ya when we see ya!
You played Runnin’ with the Devil for me! Yay! Now you’re ready to play the intro before the verse of The Big Money by Rush like me!

If you ever play bass with a pick and people give you grief, two words for them: Chris Squire.

Nice call – his bass work on Roundabout especially!

How he does that alternate picking on the bass with a pick seriously amazes me. One of the best players ever without a doubt. You also get an attack on the strings with a pick you can’t get with fingers, even if you use your nails. There are circumstances where each method is preferable. The elitism is dumb.

That’s an awesome bass! Also, I like the Stones live Steel Wheels. I saw that show at the iMax theatre in Ontario Place in high school too!
