what was it? Today, I acquired:
Goldfinger - Open your eyes. £14 (and there's meant to be a sale on!!! It's £12 in most other stores).
Go ahead Punk - ...Make my day. (A.F.I., The Vandals, Guttermouth and other punky bands). £4
AFI - All hallow's E.P. £4

P.S. Coming soon. I'll bring you my list of top NOFX songs. Something to look out for when you're downloading music.

This week I bought the first Saves the Day CD, a Grandaddy album I'd never heard of, some more NOFX stuff (Heavy Petting Zoo), Lit (can't remember the name), Face To Face and replaced my dodgy copies of the Wannadies (Bagsy Me) and The Vandals (Look What I Almost Stepped In) with shiny new originals.

I haven't even had time to listen to any of the last lot that arrived yet, but I can't stop buying more. It's a sickness.

Best thing to do on Ebay is wait till right at the end of the auction to place a bid.....not that I would do that....honest it's just an idea.

It'll probably cost me around £6. The two Smashing Pumpkins albums are both at the same price now, will most likely increase a bit as the auction comes to a close though.

It's a classic though. Look at the track listing.

1. Bitter Sweet Symphony
2. Sonnet
3. Rolling People, The
4. Drugs Don't Work, The
5. Catching The Butterfly
6. Neon Wilderness
7. Space And Time 8. Weeping Willow
9. Lucky Man
10. One Day
11. This Time
12. Velvet Morning
13. Come On

There are some really class songs on it. Bitter Sweet Symphony and The Drugs Don't Work are more like anthems than songs, that's how good they are. Lucky Man and Sonnet are also immense. I haven't heard all the tracks though, that's probably why I want it. It's only about £2.80 as well.

If it's cheap then snap it up, it's double Cd and has some good tunes on it.

I came across that in my CD collection recently actually after getting it free with something I bought from Argos years ago. I listened to it and it was sooo crap!

I'm sure that on Ebay somewhere...

*goes to look*

Yep, highest bid so far is £5.50. Do you think I should get that over Mellon Collie?

Mellon Collie is an okay album, if you haven't arelady then you should get Siamease Dream, by far their best album.

I'm averaging about one or two albums a week now I'm getting a little extra money :).

Last week, it was 'The Very Best Of MTV Unplugged'. This week it was 'Eric Clapton - MTV Unplugged', next week, well tomorrow it will be 'Oasis - Heathen Chemistry' and then the week after it will be 'Counting Crows - Hard Candy'.

I've also got a bid in for 'The Verve - Urban Hymns' on Ebay which I'm hoping to get. I also want 'Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness'.
