Michal
is from Prague
in the Czech Republic.
He's
been a UFO fan for more than 20 years, but only
saw them play live for the first time in November
2006.
He
was so impressed that he bought Vinnie's underpants,
as modeled here by Phil and Pete.
I can't believe I'm typing this.

JOHN
WILDE, aka Devonjohn is now (according to his
poor long-suffering wife)
"a sad old Rock Dad"
John
says....
I first saw UFO at Lancaster University in 1979.
With
that group of strangers in the night, I developed
an obsession with
the phenomenon that is UFO.
That
young blood is now long gone, but I am still
a wild one.
Sadly
- the only other member of the family I can
drag to see UFO
is my Morris Minor - Lettice
*.
We both really enjoyed Falmouth and she has
nothing but
UFO on her multi changer to Keep on Rockin'
*
'Lettice' is named thusly, not because she looks
mouth-wateringly good
next to this pickled onion here on the left
of the picture, but because
at the start of every journey, John says
'Please let us get there in one piece'

Bond keeps a wary eye out for the Shirt Police
Not much to say, except that I
have been a fan of MS and UFO since about the time
Lights Out was released, and my appreciation grows
stronger each day.
I have seen UFO 4 times, but only once with MS.
For that one I had to drive from Memphis to Chicago,
about 530 miles.
That was the WOW tour. I have since seen Michael
solo twice,
shows also requiring 200 to 250 miles one way to
attend.
So altogether, I have driven over 2000 miles to
see the shows.
As you can appreciate, the knowledge that he may
or may not go on
at the end of the drive makes it almost a religious
experience.
I finally became inspired enough last year to finally
get off my ass and learn to play guitar.
As you'll see in the photo, I am following in the
masters' footsteps in gear choice at least.
Notice the posters in the left and right background
as well.
Those are two of the seven Schenker posters that
grace "The Pit",
which is what my wife calls the basement.

This dad's an angry man... he
looks like Desperate Dan!
He says.....
"I was born in Hackensack,
NJ. I presently live in Arden, NC with my wife and
3 (count em) daughters (I bless them all but none
know who the fuk Michael Schenker IS let alone UFO).
I was a late bloomer in that I didn't get into Schenker
till 1982. In 1984, my wife (soon to be ex) bought
me tickets to see MSG in El Paso, TX for my birthday.
From then on I have been a BIG Schenker fan. I am
exactly 2 months younger than Mikey, which qualifies
him to officially call me sonny.
I would say that my claim to fame is that I invented
the output connector of the power supply for the
Intel Itanium microprocessor. I am presently employed
as a "Development Engineer" for a manufacturer of
fiber optic infrastructure products. I have a BSME
in Mechanical Engineering and hold an MBA in finance
(a plug for those interested). Now, what the fuk
else does everyone what to know? Oh yes, my Yahoo
Schenker clubs....( my Yahoo alias is schenker_rules)
And.. oh yes... my name. It's Jay." |

PAGETT is Armed and Ready.
Armed and ready to go 53 seconds
with a doorless wardrobe.
In one way, he doesn't scare me.
But in another way, he does....

Gail
from Rhode Island
Well,
what can I say except she's just too damn skinny
by half.
I only agreed to put her photo on this website cos
she is a friend of Tilly on the No
Heavy Petting page.
Oh yeh, and cos she wrote a great review of the
Barry Sparks gig a few years ago.
At a guess, this photo is at least
20 years old. Or it's of her grand-daughter. Yeh,
that'll be it. |
It's
an old trick but it might just work....
Vinnie and Phil play a supporting role as Glenn
and Pete are hoist aloft from the hat-stand in
an
attempt to make them appear upright and sober.
Jason and Paul nonchalantly block off
each of the side-views, (anybody would think they'd
done this before) and the promo shoot for the
Showtime dvd in Wilhelmshaven
can go ahead as planned.

And
here we have Karen who chose to write her own bio
for the SITN page.
Very wise, for one so young - but we already know
from her taste in music
and t-shirts that she's smart!
Karen says...
"I come from the land where wheat is still
wheat...
and by that I mean the Pacific Northwest! Or God's
country, as I like to call it.
I'm 18, and I enjoy playing bass, reading, cooking,
etc, etc.
Favorite bands are (do I even need to say it?) UFO,
Scorpions, Dokken, Robin Trower, Trouble, Montrose,
and so on and so forth!"

This
is SPUD
I'm sure if I search for long enough
I'll find out why he's called that
but at the moment it's just not poking me in the
eye
PAUL
loves UFO, Megadeth, Type O Negative,
Kings X, Pink Floyd and Metallica.
He lives in Hollywood
but is originally from Oregon and
wants to do charity work with animals,
which is why he's here with us in SITN |

FRYTZ

takes a break from explaining the rules
of 'Stone Scissors Paper' to Michael
yet again. But no, Michael still keeps mixing
it up with 'Shoot Shoot'...

| Phillip
from Bournemouth had a day off work
so decided not to waste it
"You
might be thinking - 'whats wrong with this bloke',
well...
I've had a day off work and I'm bored!
So here it is - me and my UFO/Waysted/Pete Way/Mogg-Way/Paul
Chapman/Schenker/Paul Raymond/Sign of 4 cds,
a few dvds here as well - 70 items in total. Do
I win some kind of award for being a sad git?
Why do I looked worried? My mate was threatening
to nick my Schenker Odd Trio cd, cos apparently
its rare!"

Hey,
Timothy, where do you come from?
Does he come from the earth?
Does he come from the sea?.....
Nope, Tim is from Aurora Illinois
(Wayne and Garth country - we are not worthy).
Tim is married with a son who is called Michael.
There's devotion for ya. |

No, there's nothing wrong with your eyes.
Everything looks this blurred when you've been
hanging round with UFO for too long.
SIMON from Uddersfield, England, snook a day off
school
to go and meet his heroes.
But Manchester United were playing away that day,
so he ended up going to a UFO gig instead.
Still, I expect he learnt far more that day
than if he'd gone to school. |

Daggerman
and Pete share a joke
about Aston Villa....
.....so why isn't Pete laughing?
Cos football is a serious business, that's why.
Blimey, even gurls know that.

JARLE
is smiling cos he knows there's another glass of
wine
hidden under that lampshade ..
Hi! I'm Jarle from Narvik in Norway.
I was born in 1964, the very same year Jim Reeves
died.
I listened alot to him as a little kid. I live alone
with my 11 year old son,
who's about to become a true music lover like me.
I've been a UFO fan ever since I heard the Obsession
album in '78,
but unfortunately never had the chance to see the
band live.
I'm working as a cook and I love beer, red wine
and cognac. |
Tom
Lancaster is from Joliet
More
