There is something bigger? [Re: The Final Option]

[Page <grayson.page@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm curious, you mention that there was something bigger in a lucite 
holder, but I havnt found anything along those lines. The biggest I 
knew of was Ken's effort which was this Final Option since he had to 
use an old record store to put it together and even then, he had to 
trim it down since the boxes werent big enough (as per Bootleg by 
Clinton Heylin). Speaking of which, if anyone is insanly interested, 
I'll dig out that section in the book to add to this story.
