Update from the publisher...

...the book is due for publication May 2011. First run will be the Standard and Deluxe editions... more options after that time.

At the Robin show someone shouted "where's the frickin book"

Glenn explained the publishers wanted another 20,000 words so i guess thats the main reason for the delay.

Can't wait! Been a long time coming but patience is a virtue!

Or i could nip down the road and nick Marie's copy SHHHH everyone, don't tell her

Hmmm - I may have to get a safe built into a secret place in my house to keep it in! I might take photo's of it and text them to you if you are lucky!!! Mwahahahahahaha!!!!

Quote from Paul J

looking forward to reading the truly standard normal edition
Hopefully won't be two or three years before it is out!

Hopefully it will be out before I'm dead and gone! For me the standard editon would be 345 Euros... Help! Does anybody have a mpm - a money print machine?

I was lucky enough to be able to sit down and chat with Glenn one on one for about half an hour after our show in 2008. It was really interesting the things he told me about the days with Purple etc. We spoke about Ritchie,Gillan,Paice etc plus Ronnie and the guys in Zeppelin. Looking really forward to reading his book!

May 2011? Oh..., good!
By that time I will probably have forgotten how much I have paid for it!

Chris, any chance you make a second purchase and donate it to my adress??? Come on, make this girl happy

I've just recieved my "thank you" note from Glenn - very nice

(unfortunately the postie obviously couldn't quite understand what " PLEASE DO NOT BEND" in large red letters on the envelope meant....)

and as luck would have it the new CTTB remix/remaster arrived at the same time - looking forward to listening to that with a nice glass of red when the dogs are walked!!

Just received word from the publisher...

Work is progressing beautifully on Glenn’s book. We have added a large quantity of extra material, and Glenn and Joel are writing some more material to reflect the success of Black Country Communion. We are on track to ship copies in May.

Meanwhile, find attached a couple of Page spreads to tide you over 'til then

Looking forward to the book especially curious what birth year Glenn will admit to being born *nudge nudge wink wink*

Ooooh - in time for the UK tour dates then!
