Woo hoo! Thank you Mr Postie 😁

Let's bring this one to the brave new world UFO - Last Orders 50th Anniversary tour Supposedly Phil Mogg is calling it quits. So this may your last chance to see UFO live. We have tix for the June show in The Netherlands. (We have seen them at least a dozen or more times since the early 70's. As soon as I mentioned that it might be our last chance, Mrs merikan1 had me buy tickets on the spot. My kind of woman!) Some clips from the current tour. Apart from the irritating annoying sing-along, they still sound pretty damn good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuz0QDp4y6Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAeUF4ia7yc

Restarting this thread, where you can post ticket images from your collection. Here is one from a concert on this date, back in 1986: Just re-scanned this one, as the earlier version was a bit crappy.

It all started with the 1939 worlds Fair with its theme of ‘the world of tomorrow’ The Fair’s influence on science fiction (and sci-fi parody), industrial, commercial, and urban design, and marketing resonates into the present. I‘ve always been fascinated by the the concept and I absolutely love the graphic representation of it that permeated the 40s and especially the 50s. I have several books and magazines from the period which explore this. Here is an example, probably my favourite cover. The Home of tomorrow!

During a public lecture at Cornell University in 1994, Carl Sagan presented the image to the audience and shared his reflections on the deeper meaning behind the idea of the Pale Blue Dot: "We succeeded in taking that picture [from deep space], and, if you look at it, you see a dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever lived, lived out their lives. The aggregate of all our joys and sufferings, thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilizations, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every hopeful child, every mother and father, every inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every saint and sinner in the history of our species, lived there on a mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam. The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that in glory and in triumph they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of the dot on scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner of the dot. How frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity – in all this vastness – there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. It is up to us. It's been said that astronomy is a humbling, and I might add, a character-building experience. To my mind, there is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly and compassionately with one another and to preserve and cherish that pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known". Masterminded by Carl Sagan, the final photograph of Earth, the 'Pale Blue Dot', taken by Voyager 1, some 3.7 billion miles away from our planet...the very concept is mind blowing...After it nearly didn't happen at all (the photograph), what a wonderful idea and achievement of Sagan's, to convince NASA to turn Voyager's camera around to take this one last photograph of Earth...a truly amazing image.

Enjoy tonight ,good folks. You are in the presence of a master of his craft. Wish I could be there.

Mark M's Razor: "Of two competing non- or unverifiable theories, the more astonishing theory is to be preferred." "We are all agreed that your theory is crazy. The question which divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct. My own feeling is that it is not crazy enough." --Niels Bohr Above is prefatory to the following assertion: "The waking state as you think of it is a specialized extension of the dream state... "The waking state, then, has its source in the dream state..." --Seth/Jane Roberts, Session 898, _Dreams, "Evolution," and Value Fulfillment_, Vol. 1
