They say a picture speaks a thousand words.

I'd prefer to hear James Hetfield sing a few thousand. Especially for £15000.

An amazing piece of rock history nonetheless. If I had just won the lottery I think I would place a bid.

Now that would make a lovely christmas present.

That's some amazing shit though, I would pay that much for it... If I actually had any money.

The British Government should buy this artwork and use it to Promote
Rememberence Sunday amongst the youth of today

since most youth are puppetts these days it might work better than the

traditional Poppy Appeal

see on the web - company selling tickets and packages for ACDC in Glasgow for 01/03/09 at the SECC

Nothing on the Glasgow SECC web site for this date ??? any info ???

pity the poor folk shelling out in Northern England and Scotland - scrumming for tickets in England and Europe - you would think the promoters could set out a complete list - instead of something on a fagg packet

Bon Scott must be banging yon coffin lid !!!

British Government should buy the Metallica Artwork from the Master of Puppets Album and use it to inspire the youth of today regarding Rememberance Sunday instead of the Traditional Poppy Appeal

on the 11 hour of the 11 day of the 11 month

WE SHALL REMEMBER THEM !!!
