Maximo Park man loses note book - asks for your help
disnews by DiS News April 27th, 2005
Maximo Park frontman Paul Smith has launched an appeal to fans and general people alike after losing his bag at a gig at Northumbria University on Monday.

The words is as follows...

Dear all,

This is a personal appeal on behalf of Paul Smith, singer of Maximo Park. On 25th April, after the Maximo Park gig at Northumbria University, Paul misplaced his bag containing several items of personal significance - the most devestating loss being his Red Book, containing song lyrics to the "A Certain Trigger" album, poetry, and various other writings representing his life's work.

We're desperate to get this bag and its contents back, so we're appealing for your help, especially those of you near the Cooperage along the quayside in Newcastle, where the bag was last seen.

The bag is a white linen Japanese "soft-boy" and contained the following:

- Paul's RED BOOK containing his life's work: lyrics to the album, poetry, etc.
- polaroids and drawings
- Kafka and Camus books
- wallet and keys

...basically his LIFE.

If you can help please contact Colin at Streetfeat Management on info@streetfeat.demon.co.uk or +44 (0) 208 964 1917

You will be rewarded with tickets to any MAXIMO PARK show you want plus a huge hug from Paul.

So there you go. Spotter's badges at the ready chaps...
