I think I have three documentaries on Queen on videotape somewhere around here. They were my favourite band growing up. If I remember rightly that guitar, nicknamed the Red Special, was fashioned from wood from the mantlepiece of the family fireplace. You can't make that stuff up!<br />Great post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3794526199796396923.post-74793590169518923952014-04-04T16:55:44.842-04:002014-04-04T16:55:44.842-04:00That sound like a great idea.

I gravitate to the odd balls. A few excellent ones I've seen are Urban Explorers (about people who go out and find the strange abandoned placed in large urban areas including sewers and factories), Who the F**k is Jackson Pollock (a look into the art world from a layman's eyes), Man on Wire (an almost thriller about the guy who tightrope walked between the World Trade Center Towers before it opened) and King of Kong (a look into the strangely cut throat world of competitive video game playing). Great post and hope your recovery goes well!Evan / Banned Libraryhttp://www.bannedlibrary.comnoreply@blogger.com
