ok guys...

thanks so much for kind words and everything, but this is truly happening, the reason, mainly, i have said is personal...

ok I will appreaciate the bit of cash it brings in, but its much more than that:

because of whats happened and where i am right now in my life, is that i'm sat here with a ton of records and cds, of which i can't remember the last time i physically played, some of which i have in 10 formats (of the same album!!!), a box of t-shirts, posters, magazines, everything, as you know, and because of the situation i am now in have come to realise that there is much more important things in my life right now... mainly my daughter and hence this and other clear outs and changes i need to make - no one but me is making me do this, it is the result of something greater (and sader really), but its not being forced upon me - its a decision i have come to and there is NO going back...

anyhow i will still be here on this forum, i will still buy the new product / album, still go out on the UK leg of the next tour (if it happens in the UK). i have everything backed up in mp3 format (something by UW, of which, i do still play every day), and i still love you all... you are all still what i consider to be as friends

i'm gonna catalogue in detail everything photographically as i sell it, because one day i might still write my book... and it'll prove to the doubters who was the superfan,

but above all i will still be the number one super fan...

i'm here but may be lurking for a bit, except with this thread, as i'll update you on the current offers and gems i have that i might want to point you too...


happy hunting,

Matt
