romotional items used to advertise Being boring records include:
60”×40” black and white poster by John Huba, showing Neil, Chris
and actors from the video (this is the same photograph as the cast photo
published in Literally 5, only with PetShopBoys caption added to the bottom).
The poster allegedly truly beautiful in real life and was part of the merchandise on
1991’s Performance tour, where it was sold for about six dollars.
Market price of the poster raised a few years ago to about Advertisements in newspapers, almost identical to the sleeve of 12” UK release. Thick cardboard shop counter standing display, virtually identical to the advert above. The display is 304×203 mm, 2-3 mm thick, with a cardboard stand stuck to the back that allows it to be stood upright. | ||||
he 2002’s Release tour merchandise included several
similarly looking, colour T-shirts with captions like “Closet homosexual,”
“Blackpool rock & roll,” “Quite heavy metal,” “Sexy
Notherner” and... “Being boring.” However, the design of the T-shirt
shows no resemblance to that of Being boring singles. (The T-shirts were
priced $30 each.)
In Literally 26, Neil mentions: “That’s the first time we’ve ever done that. Normally there’s only one t-shirt. Closet Homosexual didn’t sell very well, you’ll be surprised to know, but Sexy Northener did very well.”
