As we welcome the new year, it is of course a Goodie one! Like last time a thread was started here for fans to plan the 40th. Now it's time to plan the Big Un! The rest is up to you...  (please note-I'm not in charge of organising anything myself. This is just a place for fans to organise any events for the anniversary. Thanks for your understanding.) 🙂 |

Well, for a start-off, I shall be at the Slapstick event 6pm Saturday 25th January at the Redgrave Theatre, Bristol (and a few other events in that festival). Hope to meet lots of other fans there. A pity the documentary film fell through but I hope that team will do something with all the archive they compiled.
Personally, to celebrate the 50th, I'd like to see a Goodies Song Book (maybe including ISIRTA songs too - might be rather large!). I would love to help compile this (I have some relevant skills) but I'm not the pushy sort so it would need someone else to lead the project and deal with publishers. I've already spoken to some people about the idea and the feeling is that Bill would certainly be keen but we would MUST get an offer from a publisher as a starting point before approaching him. Obviously it would likely miss the 50th even if we started now, but still worth doing. It would be a lovely way of preserving the lyrics because, as is well-known, some songs are partly inaudible due to effects and dialogue over them and the original tapes getting wiped. I hope it would be an attractive volume - there are plenty of pictures that could be used.
