    So my mate Chris who has lived in Milton Keynes all his life has been a longtime collector of vinyl & posters (a bit like me, but much more so) and I am keeping my distance in his back garden this afternoon and then he casually mentions he'd come across a stash of posters in a rolled up tube that he'd forgotten he had (yeah, right) "let's have a look" I said, and he unrolls a load of Punk originals including 999 and Vibrators etc, all very nice, but then a pile of original Stranglers concert posters, jeez not only have I never seen these anywhere online but one in particular (live at the Bletchley Leisure Centre in 1977) is previously undocumented, just amazing!
    So he very kindly let me take some pics of them as I know there is interest among folk who dig these things, he's not selling but happy to share with you.

    He also got his poster of Idles signed when they played a small pub in MK a couple of years ago
