Blue Tube
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a true white on my screen

Blue Tube
You know just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
A minty blue to really care for

And then on eBay what befalls me
The only one my chassis will hold
I heard somebody whisper please install me
And when I looked to the tube it turned true white

Blue Tube
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a true white on my screen

And then on eBay what befalls me
The only one my chassis will hold
I heard somebody whisper please install me
And when I looked to the tube it turned true white

Blue Tube
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a true white on my screen

Blue Tube
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a true white on my screen

No, not a newer one. The post was inspired by the 'vulture' thread. Smile At this point I'd actually take a newer green over a newer blue.

Too bad I have scruples or I could sell it on the bay. "R@re! Almost mint sony barco 808 tube! You know how rare these are, so don't miss this oportunity!! This tube is fantastic!!! Large even wear pattern makes it a breeze to set up in, and the lowest EM of any tube I've seen!!!! And that's not something you'll see every day!!!!! Bid soon and bid often!!!!!!"
