A DAY AT TWISTED NERVE
Here are the photos we took on our trip to Twisted Nerve's...
Sorry for the lack of fantasy though, we were overexcited.

that day...
| On a hot thursday of
august, while visiting Manchester, Peppe and I went looking for The Mews,
Charlton Place, Ardwick Green, Manchester M12 6HS, and despite we never
thought we would just get to Ardwick Green, we quite easily found the
building we were looking for. Twisted Nerve Records is on the upper floor of a flat; in its awesome,messy entrance room we met Rob and Brian, to whom we asked the permission to have a look around. The walls were covered by lps and posters, and there really seemed to be not enough room on the floor for all those big boxes full of cds and other stuff which were on it. Brian was on the floor too :) He must be a big fan of Twisted Nerve, as he's got the bunny tattoed on his arm. I told the guys I was an Italian fan involved in a web project about a (Badly Drawn) Boy, and we took photos together (which will soon be on the site), then Rob led us to a small room were all the cool stuff stayed... it was amazing!!! Delighted, we stepped out of that room and entered another one, where Rob showed us the big clock (or whatever it is) of the front cover of The Hour Of Bewilderbeast! We then said goodbye to Rob and Brian and left Twisted Nerve Palace. When we got to the railway station, we were still crying out loud laughing. Thank you Brian and Rob for being so nice and welcoming to us! I really hope you'll read this! ;)
