Hey Jennifer,

Oh yes...I'm a BIG Platinum Blonde fan from way back. I'm 32 now but I still love the band and I'm glad to see that there are still some of us out there. So you got to see the band in person. That is so cool. You will have to tell me about it. I have 3 albums by them and I would be glad to make you a copy if you are still interested. I have "Alien Shores"...Outstanding by the way, by far the best...I also have "Contact" one of there later albums and "Standing in the Dark", which I believe is there first. Write me back if you want and I'll get you what you want. One thing is for sure...I know you have great taste in music. Your bud...Jeff (80sFreak@prodigy.net)

well, i don't know if you are allowed to take pix at ANY palace show, but i was allowed at the platinum blonde show.soundcheck times vary, but ARE NOT, i repeat NOT EVER open to the public. i had to check on tix, & mark asked me to stay to hear the new music, sorry.tomorrow i see if my pix turn out..did you see the other show in late aug? it was fab- i stayed til 5:30, & mark almost fell asleep on me, literally. i had to prop him up on the couch..

No, I missed that show, unfortunately. But glad to hear it was great!

Actually, there are soundchecks that are open but it depends on the band/artist. I guess by my experiences of 'open' I mean fans can watch if they like and usually only they have the interest to come in anyway. I have been to a few already but none at the Palace, and was curious as to the time the bands that play there usually arrive there, if there was a set time (I've never been to a Palace show prior to the Platinum Blonde one.)

Hope the pictures turned out! :)
