- DiscussionSaturday Night Beech-Nut Show , 1 August, 1959, a bit of shaky kinescope:
Hi Jon,
Ok, I registered, I paid me money and tried to log on to Inplayer to watch our Bill...but the bugger still wants me to pay money again, doesn't recognise my password ( invalid credentials),tried the forgotten password link...no email to change password....then asks for a token? WTF!
To be blunt...'wot a load of bollocks! I give up!
I like to think I know my way around a computer, but this is a minefield to navigate.
Glad I was there on the night!
Hi Andy, The video IS actually there, I’ve watched it myself. Can I suggest you contact the inplayer support, we don’t hold any of the log-on information, so cannot reset passwords and stuff. Drop me an email at info@nelsonica.com if you still hit a brick wall and I’ll try to sort something out for you tomorrow.
Have you had any emails from them - a welcome when you registered, or a receipt when you paid? If not, it's possible that you mistyped your email when registering and paying.
@Perfect Monster hi Pm, yes I had a welcome email from Inplayer asking to confirm my email address which I did and a paypal confirmation that I had paid...still can’t log in, wants me to pay again🥴🥴🥴
I couldn't have put it better myself Andy
Apparently though the payment has been taken from my account I have not made any purchase and therefore cannot watch the streaming.
A very prompt reply to my email from support @inplayer has resolved my problem.Very good service,credit where its due.
Thanks to everyone who made this available to view. It was a fabulous performance. I wish I could have been there.
Cheers to everyone who made it possible, especially Bill of course.
Backlund Rocker Box on Gloria Mundae is cool and I feel like Eastwood should make a guitar called Gloria Mundae.
I do love the one-man band experience and yet I Always Knew That You Would Find Me is one of those would kick serious arse in obviously a completely different way with a flesh-and-blood band playing with yer.
The Airline Coronado guitar is just incredible to behold.
On Hypnos love the mandolin style playing playing near the end. Was wondering, Bill, if you've ever tried playing a bouzouki.
The Saturn 63 Eastwood is a beautiful instrument. I think of Deco and yet it is not Deco.
Elliptic Waterfall is a track I feel I should hear more often to calm me down and set me right with the world. It's got much wisdom.
The green scratchplate on the Backlund 100 Super Deluxe is where it's at. I crave vanilla-and-lime something or other in a 1950s super-deluxe snack bar when I look at it.
What is that Bill Nelson signature rackmount unit? Oh, a spacer plate?
I do love Luxeodeon and the Astroluxe. Can't get enough of this style of yours, Bill.
The voice sample on Antique Gods goes so well with the rhythm I feel like whoever spoke that phrase must've had a premonition about the music to arrive around it someday.
The D'Angelico is a beautiful blue lake-mirroring-sky thing to get lost in.
I'd forgotten the healing dream that is The Raindrop Collector ...
The Hallmark Stradette reminds me of a 1963 Höfner 500/1 Violin Bass bass somehow and it's in the shape of an insect or a maybe iguana, sorta like the shape of the island of Cyprus.
A Dream For Ian this time reminds me of horses trotting trough the clouds ...
Found a Dansette ad ...

Love the distortion sustain improvisation at the end of Mars Welcomes Careful Drivers and could listen to it for hours.
Are you asking about this Alec? The digital processor, a Fractal Axe FX
@David Inch - transistor radio! thanks and thank you also for the clear photo'. I wasn't able to get one that good.
I'm talking about the item with Bill's signature in gold, though, which doesn't appear to have any buttons, diodes or screens and I see here has a Zoom rack above it.
@Alec Yes, David was right earlier in surmising that it was just a 'blank' spacer panel filling an empty space in the rack. There is no effect unit in that position. I simply signed it, several years ago now, to add a bit of decoration to the empty panel.
Sorry; but I haven't received my discount code! I assume it was sent via email?
I’ll look into this for you and get in touch... you should have had the code in an email.
If you attended the concert is it free to view?
Attendee’s should have had a substantial discount code sent to them via email. Was it your email that you used to buy a ticket Peter? I’ll sort you the code out before the end of the day.
Finally got a slice of time where I could watch the performance.
Even got Ms. Wadcorp to sit down with me to check it out.
Fun time with some great tunes.
Standouts: “Hypnos”, “The Awakening Of Dr. Dream”, “The Raindrop Collector” and “Sleepwalk”.
Really wish we could have watched with everyone else in real time. That’s what would have made it special.
