a little more off-topic. a lot of people go on about getting GBMS re-released - this article reads like the masters are gone??

Don't worry, in thirteen years it will have fourteen friends in a glass case.

Here are a few pics I took today for the fun of it and also an old clipping from a magazine. Ben must have just turned driving age in this picture. LOL
Loved that he used a pic of #7 even back then.

I think that article is from 2005/06, I'm not actually sure though. Anyways, seeing as Ben is about 4 years older then I am he was probably 22-23 in that pic..

Wasn't the article in the NME "Rag & Bone" giveaway issue? Swear I've seen it before.

Could be? I've definately seen it before and thought I owned a copy of it but I thought for sure it was from before that issue. I'll crack it open now.....

You're right, It's from that article. 2007 then. He'd have been 25 then? maybe 24...

The photo in question was taken behind the Garage in London in November 2001. I was 19 years old at the time.

Wow...19, London, following the Stripes around. You live a charmed life my friend! ;) On a side note, glad to see you've still got time to poke around here Ben.

So have we got photos of all 15 yet? I know Ben was assembling some sort of catalogue, surely they're all accounted for by now?
I wish I was purple, because I'm feeling blue. I'm not looking for love, but a good fuck'll do.
