Can I ask you if it's possible to send me a link to the photo of Joe, Mick and Paul on the boardwalk that's on top of your home page?

Please do keep us updated, the press links are valuable to those of us who are stuck in the USA here where news of Mick's Library just doesn't seem to be newsworthy. (I'm still waiting for Rolling Stone to cover this -- wtf? Pop culture/Mick Jones = great read and perfect copy for Rolling Stone fans.) This is just awesome; and a peek at the Stummerville room would be most lovely! Thanks again for taking the time to keep us informed. Cheers.
