THRAKKIES

Here's the final bunch of Thrakkies for 2015. A big thank-you to everyone who took the time and trouble of arranging their photos and sending them in.

Please keep your THRAKKIES coming - especially if you're getting it for Xmas - via competitions@dgmlive.com. In case you’ve not seen inside, you can take a look at this whistlestop video tour of the THRAK BOX and its contents. 

You can buy THRAK BOX from Inner Knot (US-based customers) or via Burning Shed (UK and Europe)

First up, a twofer from Martyn in Adelaide:

Preparing for THRAKATTAKc...



and release!



We really don’t recommend trying that at home.

The arrival of the big box prompted fond memories for Colin Coates. "My Thrak Box with the "genuine" Albert Hall ticket as well as the programme opened up on the support act"



Some people, and more than a few canine chums, find THRAK a relaxing experience. "Jeff Jankowski and Vivienne have been Thraked!"



Antonio Rampini proves the THRAK BOX is an ideal accompaniment for those sessions down at the gym. “My friend Valerio Bilotti and me (Valerio is the big boy who is lifting all sort of weights) would like to send our “Thrakkie" with our THRAK boxes.Valerio had also his Thrak shirt on, a pity you can’t see him…Sort of "DoubleThrakking Under Heavy… Manners”    :)”



Bob in Wisconsin was heard to declare the arrival of the box to be "A wealth of sonic wonderment!"



Thanks to Peter in San Francisco for brilliantly upping the weird quotient in this selection of snaps. I've heard folks say that THRAK is an electric experience but is that string of Xmas lights plugging directly into Peter’s head?




Proof that there’s a whole lot of bass end on the THRAK BOX comes from Arjen, who writes “I was just packing for a concert when I received this enormous Thrak box. My cello looks tiny in comparison. Only the double-bass was big enough to hold it.”


 

Finally, sound engineer Eric Dochez in Lille writes “Here's the evidence that my little daughter Wanda very much loves the new King Crimson THRAK box. We love all the old King Crimson Boxes too!”
