I'm sure people on here have talked about it before, but this year's Ikea catalog has a bigger photo of their designer, Chris Martin. Page 109 of the US version. He looks a little like Chris, like his dweeby brother. He also needs to cut some holes in the underarms of his jacket. But that Ellan chair is pretty darn cool.

Norwich City utility midfielder Chris Martin, and New Zealand's paceman, Chris Martin, will both be mightily disappointed that you've left them out of your thoughts.

I remember I got in trouble from a mate I was supposed to meet the morning after the Liverpool gig, I was due to be in Manchester City Centre to watch England v Brazil on the big screen at 7am but I overslept because of the gig and woke up for the start of the 2nd half. 5 missed calls :lol:

Ian, are those rumours about a limited number standing tickets being released silently (as in no advertising) true?

Someone on bbc 6 music mentioned it last week.
The only way to make sure is to keep an eye out on the major ticket sites for any updates

The chair is cool, it's actually 6 pieces that is snapped together and made with some wood-plastic composite. His other furniture is stuff I like too, my kind of modern.
There's another picture of Chris in this pdf (http://www.massproductions.se/Mass-Pres-eng.pdf) on the page 26, he looks different in this photo and not like our Chris at all.
