Hi Everybody! Welcome to the newly located Elevated Observations Discussion Forum, the place to talk about all things Hollies!!As many of you may know, this lively discussion board used to reside here: www.topfreeforum.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1&mforum=holliesHowever, the ancient code of its web structure was such that it began to be invaded by bugs in 2012 in a major way, and by 2013, was so riddled with problems, made it almost impossible to post anything at all - even by me as moderator and administrator. Unfortunately, though I have frequently contacted the site owners, I have been unable to extract any of the information as files to have them transferred here. Therefore it's RIP to the old Elevated Observations Hollies Forum (16/4/2006 - 21/06/2013) and hello to this brand new forum! Rules remain the same here: Opinion and debate is great, personal attacks, aggressive behaviour, slander and defamatory words are a total no go. Thanks to everyone who has encouraged me to keep this discussion group going - it's you guys I have to thank for making this the liveliest place on the www to talk all things Hollies. cheers Simon

Congrats on a new forum, Gralto! The previous forum made lots of valuable information available for us passionate Hollies followers. Good luck with this new one! I'd also like to take this opportunity to mention that the Scandinavian Hollies Facebook site (Hollies til Norge) these days pass 1000 followers. Due to costs it is available in Scandinavia only. The Hollies have over the last 3 years sold 8000 tickets in Norway - a country with a 5 million population. I am quite proud of that. Hollies forever!

Well let's be honest Knut, as you have done much of the leg work with promoting these shows yourself, frankly, The Hollies are extremely lucky to have someone such as yourself in their corner.
I must also thank you for your gentle pushing to Record Collector to ensure my article got over the line this year. Let it be said that, as humble as you are, with due respect to Alfons, Geoff C, Tony M, Rob H and a few others, you are The Hollies Most Devoted Fan Worldwide. Long may you continue in this position!!! :-)

By the way, the old forum is SO utterly broken in its virus-riddled state, that a message I posted about the forum moving to this new location at least a week ago, has still yet to appear there. I'm now thinking it probably won't! Anyway, thanks to you all for moving across to this new home for Hollies chat and opinions. Hurrah!

Thanks for moving us to a new home, Simon. I'm sure a few months off did us all some good!

Found it Simon. I'm in. Congrats on keeping this going. All we need now is for some computer wiz to be able to assist in getting all the information from the old forum and getting it onto this. There is too much valueable information there for it to be lost. Anyone with any bright ideas?

Great to be back, thought I'd lost this site forever.
