eBay My World: panic_records( 13423)

Hiya all - I'm Ian, the man who is to all intents and purposes Panic Records. A bit like a superhero, I suppose, but in the shape of an online shop. My special powers? Selling promos of obscure indie bands to fellow music fans.

As many CDs as I can get my hands on, the vast majority of which are hard-to-find promos. Alas, the arse is falling out of it, so make the most of it while you can!

20p and 50p pieces. Seriously, I'm not making it up. I've got a big pile of them with different patterns on the back, although my lucky 20p from the Falklands which had lived in my pocket for around 5 years went missing recently. I was proper gutted.

English, Welsh (a bit)

Non-League football, 'proper' football, hunting out new bands, going off new bands when more than 10 people like them, Belgian wheat beer and gueuze, poker

At the risk of sounding like a moron, I don't gel with books the same way I do with music. I go through a couple of dozen a year, with obscure history being my current favourite niche

OldBoy, Survive Style 5+, Adam & Paul, The Secret In Their Eyes, Gran Torino, Shawshank Redemption, Stir Crazy, Brewster's Millions

Mexican Pets, Colossal, Robocop Kraus, Spy Versus Spy, The Maple State, Why?, Mimas, Baby Chaos, Windmill, Weatherbox, etc, etc, etc....
