A Fanboy Moment

This is an ad commemorating the 25th anniversary of Virgin Atlantic, Richard Branson's airline which launched in 1984.

At the 30 second mark, you'll see a young guy with a leather jacket and a Flock Of Seagulls hairdo standing outside a record shop, and if you look closely you'll see that he's holding a mint condition 12" vinyl edition of the best album you've probably never heard.



As a DJ, I can't let my love of certain bands dominate the playlist, but as a fan, stuff like this makes me happier than it has any right to.

And as an extra bit of trivia, before launching Big Country, Stuart Adamson's previous band, The Skids, was signed to Virgin Records, so it seems that Richard Branson is a fan, so he and I have at least one thing in common.
