If you won £5million, where would you go and what would you do.
(and no, I haven't, so keep the begging letters)
Me, I'd live somewhere hot with a constant supply of top-grade weed and a mail order supply of top quality tunes, buy some property and rent it out, live off the proceeds happily with my current GF.
Oh and I'd also get myself a top of the range studio and try hard to make some decent music.
What about you lot?

To a really great record store. Then I'd go to another, and another. Then Burger King, then some more.

I would stay here in Gothenburg, but spend weeks and weeks on paradise islands.
Most importantly: I would rent/buy a dedicated place for my music studio.

put it all on my bank-account, and spend the rest of my life living off the interest i get from it ;-)
4 or 5% of £5.000.000 is still something like £20.000 or £25.000! I'm not sure what a £ is worth, but it seems like alot ;-)
Then i can spend all my time on more interesting things than work :-p

But i never buy lottery tickets anyway. So the chance of me winning is 0%
Which is about the same chance you've got when you do buy a lottery-ticket :-p

i'd buy a piece of land somewhere here in southern finland. then i'd build a house for me and my fiance and we'd just be happy, and i could study all the things i want and my fiance would soon become the best bass player of the world and his band would be famous and i'd have my own record label and a studio in the house and a huuuuge room just for my art projects! and i would have a room just for the cats. and a moog voyager.

i´d try the interest thingie, after checking some heavy sound equipment and records. then i´d save a year interest and buy a nice place...
then ill go gambling the monthly interest, buy firms, until i have enough to buy the opec, to finally set free their bought patents which they are holding back.
with these i would make loads of money and save the planet. then ill buy earth and name it after me. after i got the world i would let all wolrds effort flow into the developing of time-travelling and dine in the restaurant at the end of the universe every evening,
drinking pangalactic gargleblasters...
what a great topic!!!!

I would ask an architect to build me a modern (maybe in the style of Frank Llyod Wright) sound proof house with enough space around it to avoid complaints from the neighbors ....as I crank up the Sumo Class A amp, Perraux preamp, invest in some 6 feet high panel speakers and a surround sound system that can be turned on from any room in the house...a home theatre.. a dance hall with an English Bar like my grandfathers... A Lamborghini...a monkey...a small independant record label with an outlet on the web...to keep me occupied...and some music gear to keep hubby happy...

I would buy myself a table dancing club like the Bada-Bing in The Sopranos.
Might be interesting to have an IDM night to see how the girls perform with some Autechre on the go.

on second thought i would use the entire £5.000.000 to buy thousands and thousands copies of the Druqks-album. Not only in the netherlands, but in every country it's been released! It would immediately shoot to #1 worldwide, and be played on every radiostation etc... everyone in the world would know aphex twin.
After that i would come back to this board and enjoy watching everyone complain how Richard sold out and how his music has gone downhill ever since he sold out ;-)
