Music and pinball have always gone together.
Or should that be rock and pinball.

 

[Poibug]

There could be another pin added

 

[replicas]

Would that be a one off machine, beginning with the letter R. ?

 

[Calimori]

I see Elton on the right with Captain Fantastic but I don't know the pin on the left, what is that one?

 

[Sgt GrizZ]

Bally Wizard 1975. Unofficial but based on the Tommy film.

 

[Arv]

What no KISS?

 

[replicas]

Why have Kiss in a line up like that.
Must be one of the worst games I have ever played.

Yeah it's ok, can be brutal though

Last time I played it down at the Pinball Parlor I enjoyed playing it, and with the tie in with Tommy you just have to like it.

True dat, but it is after all a music themed pin. Would blend in nicely..

True but as long as you didn't play it.

I played KISS at Dave Rolfe's place so I'm glad you brought it up as it reminded me of him. What a gent he was, I raise a glass to him.

 

[johnwhitfield]

God Dan, where have you been sticking those fingers? Nice toast but........

 

[replicas]

I also have fond memories of playing the very same game at Dave's but the fondness was not for the machine.
I also raise a glass to the memory of a great guy.

Great set of pins there. I'm feeling a need for a Tommy one day. Love that game.

Maybay I play Bally Wizard at the parlour but I don't remember. I do remember Captain Fantastic as an Australian friend found out I liked pins and told about how he grew up with a pin call Bally what his dad kept in his bed room. After a long chat we were able to identify it as Captain Fantastic, I don't think he realised it was Elton John. When I was at the Parlour, I took pictures for him and enjoyed that game.
I read that "Captain Fantastic and the Dirt Brown Cowbow" was also inspired by the movie Tommy though I can't see it myself.

Didn't get to know Dave Rolfe myself, but I hear he was a very decent bloke. RIP.

 

[replicas]

He was a great bloke and is well missed.
He always made a big pan of curry at the Monster meets that was truly awesome.
One of the true gents in the hobby that will not be forgotten.

 

[RudeDogg1]

Mmm curry

I still need to complete his bleddy fp

 

[Rus121]

Always sad to lose a friend. My condolences.
