To Everyone,
I regret to inform everyone that this site will be shutting down in one week on April 7th, 2010.
Basically, this is what happened. A while back the editors here were approached via e-mail and personal message by a BBC representative for the use of a MK childhood photo in our image gallery. They wanted the source image that we used for the website to be included in a new documentary they were creating about MK.
After some messages back and forth- and my trade request for a first generation reel to reel copy of the FULL Pink Floyd, 11/16/74 performance that the BBC recorded to which they replied
-
Jeez, you had me there!!!!
Sad thing is, i could easily imagine the above statements re MKs attitude being true. :disbelief
Nice one Dan!
-
Ha just laughed once. But great story.
-

Ahhhhh, you had me. Almost as good as my MK/Michael Jackson team up last year. :)

Ha, I had more than just one laugh about this, and it was exactly what I needed this morning! :lol
Thank you, Dan! Great story.
However, I think that MK is still cool about fan sites, but the reaction of PC is one I could imagine without any problems...
BTW, Mr. Pottel tried AND managed to fool Mr. Fletcher in his forum today! Also a nice little story...
So be careful today! ;D ;D

Well done Dan and also Maarten. On reading about the site closure, I was totally taken in and starting to feel v sad :(, but now I'm fine! :lol

Dan, do you really think that anybody is going to believe that the BBC wants to make a documentary about MK? ;D ;D ;D
Good attemp!!!

That bit is actually true! Seriously!
-
Too late, dusty! It's after mid-day in UK! ;D

Knowing your subtle and dry sense of humor, Dan, I had you pegged. But it's very well done! Congratulations for a great joke. In retaliation, I'm going to tell everyone your full name here: Daniel Freuder Antonini

You got me on this one ! You are so BAD !!!!! I was shocked ! It almost ruined my morning !!!! >:(

I know it's still 4/1, but as dustyvalentino already suggested, this is actually true. He's already been through a series interviews. I don't know when the program will air or what the name of it is. Either that or someone is pulling a joke on us, but I have evidence to suggest that the photo request was legit.
Anyway, I'm happy to see that this worked out.
