Syrinx Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/26172/preview_lot/5422694/ I was the second high bidder to the current owner when this was on Ebay a number of years ago. I know the owner. Set looks much nicer than the first time around. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yyz2112 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Is this really the original kit, as photographed on the cover of ATWS? Tempting!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted November 24, 2020 Author Share Posted November 24, 2020 Yes it is. It has been cleaned up, re-furbed and a lot of period correct parts added. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Freeze Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) Is this really the original kit, as photographed on the cover of ATWS? Tempting!! The holy grail for diehard fans........Neil bought this just before going out on his first shows ...US/ Canada. Not knowing the current owners situation......but man,if I owned it ......it would be a very painful sell Edited November 25, 2020 by Mr Freeze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 has an $80,000 opening bid so that should lessen the pain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
currygoat11 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Does anyone know if this chrome Slingerland set is the same as the Fly By Night video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Freeze Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) Does anyone know if this chrome Slingerland set is the same as the Fly By Night video? Yes..........that kit was used from FBN up to ATWAS............Neil towered over the kit in that promo.......eventually Neil would be consumed by his kit Does anyone know where the Fly by Night promo was filmed....?....Background Looks like whatever was available they used Edited November 26, 2020 by Mr Freeze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 has an $80,000 opening bid so that should lessen the pain!Well yesterday it said current bid $80K and today there is no bid? I have to say as an aside, I follow a lot of auctions, and the Bonham's site is the most tedious, slow and hard to figure out site I have ever been on!! Not sure i would have chosen them to sell my stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrinx Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 I agree. For one thing starting at $80,000 is just dumb. Start it low and get some bidding going. there is nothing like the psychology of not wanting your bid topped by someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) Does anyone know where the Fly by Night promo was filmed....?....Background Looks like whatever was available they used According to WTFOTE, it was filmed in a school in Atlanta Georgia while they were doing a short residency at Alex Cooley's Electric Ballroom in January 75. The castle backdrop was already in place on the stage for another production. Edited November 28, 2020 by Lurkst 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) Wow!..........ending bid 1/2 a million dollars?......I know his passing was a factor but,....unbelievable!...........nice little profit for the previous owner.....damn....... You know this ain't no FAN.....imho........just another investment for some well to do .......maybe Alex or Geddy snatched it?������������ probably going to end up locked in a vault ... Wow! The winning bid was $500,312 !! Lots of guesses in another group I was in that Dave Grohl or Taylor Hawkins has bought it. I wonder if we will ever find out??

Mr Freeze Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Yeah,one would hope it went to someone like that.....actually use it on stage.......instead of mothballed in a vault 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted December 11, 2020 Author Share Posted December 11, 2020 Well I certainly missed out on a pretty good investment. I am very happy for Dean. He did great things with that kit. I am amazed at the final price...WOW! But one of the strange results of this pandemic is that the collectables market has gone through the roof. There is a lot of devastation out there, and a lot of people making tons of money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
