Question of the day

[D Walker]

Depends which pressing you have, if it is the first pressing then it is worth a nice amount.

New Order ‎– Blue Monday
Label:
Factory ‎– FAC 73

I have both - Might be a bit sad but I actually have all of the New Order and Joy Division 12" singles, Albums etc..

 

[midlifecrisis]

I have the original, the remix from 88, and numerous remixes from 'the rest of'. The labels on the original are reversed btw

 

[allandwf]

I don't have either!

I'm amazed how well this thread has taken off. It's a week old and the number of views has shot past 6500. Maybe I should start selling advertising space

AndyK had the last correct answer so hopefully Andy will be along a little later to set todays question.

 

[zagatoes30]

Mine will be an original but not sure if it a first pressing or not. I do have some strange ones though, a first pressing of Roxanne by the Police on blue vinyl and the original pressing of I Can't Stand Losing by the same band (it wasn't a hit first time round) and my rarest is Anarchy in the UK by the Sex Pistols on EMI in the original black sleeve,

 

[Andyk]

DIdn't realise I had to set a question.....OK...

Who is Brian Hugh Warner better known as ?

 

[StuartW]

I met him (her?!) when I was working at MTV in my music business days. I'll keep quiet for now, I don't want to kill the thread before most people have switched on!

Trying to keep it to whoever gets the right answer first then gets to set the next question.

 

[Chrisbassett]

First thought after reading the him/her comment was Divine, but I'm sure he was Harry or Harris.

 

[BennyD]

He or she? Neither.

Lady Gaga ! rumours for years about him / her.

Serious guess would be Pete Burns from dead or alive. I'm assuming its somebody from the music industry rather than somebody presenting an award.

 

[midlifecrisis]

Brian eno?

 

[StuartW]

I may have been mis-leading you with the he/she, its just in the name, but I think it is Marilyn Manson?

I think your right but best wait from the judgement of the question setter

 

[Andyk]

Yep, Marilyn Manson.....

 

[spkennyuk]

Over to you LincsOSCA your question.

 

[StuartW]

Which football club was responsible for first introducing shin pads and flood lighting?

 

[Andyk]

Sheffield F.C in 1857 although Nottingham forest believe they did in 1870 but they were wrong.

 

[midlifecrisis]

Blimey that was quick Andy...not that I knew the answer.
Hold on floodlights in 1857? How? Electric lights were in their infancy if not invented yet!

 

[zagatoes30]

Bloddy **** that was quick, obviously touched on Andy's specialist subject
