Re: Neil Tennant announces new book
I don’t quite understand the reason behind this book. Who is it aimed at ? Are fans going to buy it just because it’s a Psb item? Is your average music fan going to buy it when all the lyrics are readily available on the psb site ?

Re: Neil Tennant announces new book
It's gonna include lyrics commentary, I guess? That should make it worthwhile, even though we all read the FL booklets.
Re: Neil Tennant announces new book
I see it as a test. If it works we might see more of that in the future, which should be good as PSB sooner or later are going to slow down...
Re: Neil Tennant announces new book
Hmmm £75 for the ltd edition. Think i'll give it a miss. On Amazon @ £14.99 for the hard cover, so maybe

Re: Neil Tennant announces new book
Ok, bought the limited edition - reckon at only 500 that won’t last long, even though I do feel I’ve been ripped off!

Just for the sake of it, make sure you're always frowning.
It shows the world that you've got substance and depth.

Re: Neil Tennant announces new book
There was a quaetsion in Annually 2017 to do with something like this and Neil says that he was approached about it ... I’m guessing this was the result then eh !!

Actually, now you mention it that does ring a bell.

You could buy the regular book at the live discussion/signing for £14.99, add the ticket price of £16 on it, get it signed there and STILL have £44 to spare!!!
