V/Vm - Shoplift

moseslawson, Jan 21, 2004

Were these ever actually placed in any shops? I had a copy myself. I was handed it by Jim and Andy outside an event in Manchester cathedral a few years back. (The one with the notorious Gescom Minidisc performance). What Shoplift actually was, was a smashed and scratched 12" in the customary V/vm bubble wrap sleeve with an insert detailing the Shoplift manifesto, whereby the release was to be secreted in various record shops accross the globe and had to be stolen. It also mentioned something about purple wellingtons and peruvian accents if i remember correctly (im not kidding!).
