Chris.. No don't get me wrong, all the bands were cool, way cool, but I mean (playing devils advocate) to our ears they were. I'm kind of a C64 geek yet not a C64 geek, so I can comment on what it sounds like to non-scene-fans. :-P I can see that you are whole-heartedly behind the 'scene get togethe...

So true. It's painful isn't it.

Kind of makes me uncomfortable washing all this linen in public... re that and all your other stuff before it... I feel for you I really do, but these questions are a necessary factor/process in collectively figuring out how to make BIT Live, well, live. And we have to pick your brains on all the v...

Chris, re everything u said....OUCH! That's a lot to pay for one guy who can't afford it, I think you are a mad person, who MUST be single coz his wife left him over this, and an amazing person to put your own life on the line here to make this thing happen! I feel truly humbled by your actions, it'...

Big time, but, let's keep the little babies safe from the big bad man.

Theres very few modern game tunes that really stick in peoples minds today... ETC... Oh god SO TRUE! Yes indeedy sir, I'd go yet further, I don't think the C64 musicians realise how much impact their music has had! I've worked with a number of 'famous' bands who have told me they've been heavily in...

This thing Chris was saying of having BIT Lives every 2 years as opposed to every 1, I think that makes sense, but I guess then you have the thing of we're all getting too old to go to such a thing without being really sad.<G> I don't care though, I'll most likely be coming when I'm 50. But if BIT L...

<CUT>

No biggie, it's just that saying that kinda thing could get Chris into problems, I've seen it happen before on other forums, you know these paranoid times we live in and all that.

We could drug him, I have drugs, I can 'donate' some?<G>

This is my view on this year's BIT Live, and I think it probably represents the feeling of the vast majority of people who love C64 games and especially its music, people who wouldn't have known such an event as BIT Lives even took place, unless they happened to read about it in the news sections of...

Thanks guys... it's a hell of a hole, and it's still very scary! I gotta go into denial for a bit... I know the feeling! :-/ Chris, asking you this as obviously you're the man who would know, if this has already been addressed in another post then forgive me, and if someone could point me to it tha...

They're fab mate, I bought them all off the guy in the Brighton Bit Live, and it was SUCH a nostalgia trip looking through them! It really made me realise how PANTS mags are nowerdays!

LOL
But, cakes? Are you mad, I know a good brothel, you need the addy?<G>

No... the AT was the @ sign Oh sh1t sorry! D'oh! Delete it delete it! I got it now, me dumb, me tired, me stupid. :oops: Making the payment now...done, just sent him £100 so make sure he gets that to you.

Just to clarify before I pay the wrong person, ie some complete happy stranger, do you mean XXXXXX@freeserve.co.uk? Note the @
ie using PayPal's 'pay anyone with an email address' service?
