Crazy Horse, there are no CDs for sale on this site at this time. :( Maybe that will change in the new year.

And, everybody, I got the "Live From London" DVD today in the mail, but the video doesn't play! Besides that, all the songs are mislabled; i.e., it will say "Sling It!" is playing but it will be "Judy Teen" playing, etc. I was able to rip the songs to my Steve Harley playlist on Windows Media Player, so it is behaving more like a CD rather than a DVD! Also, the labels that show on my playlist are from a "Live at the BBC" recording. It seems like I got ripped off, like the people who sold me the so-called DVD copied the songs from "Live in London" onto a "Live at the BBC" CD.

I don't know, I'm just so disappointed. And, beyond that, Amazon.com contacted me via e-mail today saying that they can't get hold of "The Quality of Mercy" and I had to confirm that I am willing to wait until January 14 or so to receive it. If they can't find it by that time, they will have to cancel the order! :( I just wish that we could have Steve's material over here in the US. I am wary of eBay after this latest experience. Can anyone say anything to cheer me up? I am dying for Steve Harley over here and I can't have him!

im not promising anything ,but this might just work, a long time ago i got a free dvd player(software) from a magazine ,and it has been a fave dvd player ever since,i have several DVDs from the USA that dont play on my regular player but they play fine with this software ,so it plays USA/UK discs,the player is called POWERDVD(by cyberlink) ,and iv just checked and its available for free download ,so you should get a newer version than mine ,if you have any trouble with the link just GOOGLE it ,as its available elsewhere,GOOD LUCK ;)

Anichols: I tried playing it upside down, but it didn't work. It's acting totally like a CD, not a DVD, cutting off songs at the ends, no segue into the next song, etc. I think I got ripped off by a bad seller. :( But thanks for trying. :)

Crazy Horse: I downloaded the DVD player you pointed me to and now I can't find it on my computer! I'll keep trying. :)

Oh god, I don't even know how that works! I don't even begin to have a clue how people meet and take pictures with famous people! I am outgoing, but sort of shy and not very charismatic. I think you need to be very charismatic to meet famous people heh.

It would make up for so many really awful things that happened this year and last though if It could happen. 2011 has to be better. It has to.
