    I was once walking along TIB STREET in Manchester and a white van pulled up and offered me 'studio speakers" but I knew it was going to be a cardboard box full of bricks so I politely declined and then some rocker type dudes accosted me and told me about a bin full of "GARAGE 45s" and I didn't...
