Tourbooks

skuncles · #1 05-21-2007, 12:26 PM

So it appears that there ARE tourbooks now, what do they look like? Are they better than the "Gold Dust" book which looked like it was slapped together by someone on their computer. I'm hoping that the book goes with the Crystal Visions theme and uses classic and unseen photos of Stevie. If done right this book could be incredible.
Nice to see that the poster is available too. This is one of the promo posters for the album, although the promo uses a different layout for the lettering. On eBay people are asking as much as $500 for the promo version, I want the poster but not THAT bad. I'll wait and get it at the show.

They are worse. I didn't think it was possible. The only thing that looked even halfway interesting was a drawing that Stevie did for her Aunt Carmal. Other than that, the photos suck. I only saw scans so far but you can hardly see Stevie, her shots are so far away. One is good but the whole tourbook is lame! I enjoy the backstage shots but enough already with so many of them. I will have to buy it, as I have them all but I would rather not. Luckily it is only 15 bucks.

I love how people go on about how bad something is, then follow up with "I'll still buy it"....follow along little lamb.

I will buy it because I collect tourbooks. That does not mean I have to love each and every one of them. My money, my opinion.

Once a collector, always a collector. There are many crappy boots and demos out there also, but I still want to have them.

And when people continue to buy "crap" the producers of the "crap" figure "Hey, it's selling, no need to make the next one any better...just keep putting out crap." Enjoy your tour book that you voiced your opinion on not liking.

No just voicing my opinion. Is that ok?

of course it is. we all thrive on it. it just came off like you were ragging on the folks who bought a tourbook and were disappointed. it's not exactly their fault, you know? and besides, the actions of the die hard fans are not going to sway stevie, her merch people (chris nicks), or her management.
