God myself a second apartment, cos I work alot in the city of Flensburg also. Made myself an Roxetteroom like office... Somewhere I gotta put it all. It’s all mixed up my collection, with Gessle, Grape Rock, Roxette and everything else from the God-Like Man Gessle, and Wonder Woman Marie :-)
What I wanne know is..:
How big are you collections ? ... Mine ? I have no idea... I’d guess more than 300 cds, singles, vinyls, different versions of records and and and...
Anyone else have made something like an Roxroom ? Instead of hiding it all in a box ?
Poster and stuff like that doenst interest me... Thats magazin stuff and has nothing to do with them really... Eventhough I also have a lot of that. **LOL**
Before you ask ... Looks quite cool and not like crap... Studio like office *G* ...
Im 31 ... Will I ever grow up ? NOOOOOO WAY !!!... My 9 y.o daughter listens also to the stuff now ... Hmm... Thats not good... :-S

I’ve had a waxwork Per and Marie issued and they stand at the foot of my bed :)
Ok I made that up, 10 years ago I had all my 7” singles covering an entire wall though.

I used to have my room in Spain wallpapered with Roxette posters, I removed all of them somewhen in 2000 and I left only one huge Marie poster, a couple of official Rox posters and one poster with Eva. I had all my LPs, CDs and tapes and who knows what else in my room, but no special “exhibition”.
Since I moved to Austria in 2002, I have my stuff splitted between Spain and Austria.. when I moved here I left most of the video tapes, posters and CDs there and only took what I thought was “necessary” or “precious” and what the car (a Clio!) allowed :) I took some of my LPs and some CDs. My gf is a (Marie) Rox fan as well so she has all the normal CDs here, and some singles.. so well, we have a cupboard with everything in there, Roxette, Eva and Melissa and all other music. So it’s the music cupboard.
We are looking to move to another flat and there we would like to have our “chill out” room with the PCs, some fitness stuff and our music corner.

Ha..I’m moving real soon and planning to create my office like a Roxroom..yes..Can’t live without it. I already put some of my Per/Marie autographs into a frame and my signed Roomservice logo will end up at the wall too.
I just bought two big shelves for my around 300 CDs...the shelves are 2 metres high. ;) They will stand in my living room. My Rox-mugs will appear in the kitchen...but no posters on the walls any longer. I don’t like that anymore. Well..okay..with one exception...To have a black and white Corbijn poster of Per signed in the sleeping room is something I like! ;) (Wohnst Du noch - oder lebst Du schon ;)) Have a nice Rox-appartment everyone.

@Chriz ... :-)
Ok... Very Sarcastic ... Like That *LOL*
I only made one of the rooms like that... The other 5 are stinky normal offices... :-)

Hmmm, our whole house is filled with things. My girlfriend isn’t too happy, but it seems to pass.

Oha. Guys, I am really boring. No Per towels, no Marie pyjama, no Roxette mirror over my bed. Not even a single poster. Sick, hu? ;o)
All CDs are sorted chronologically (not by colours, sorry Per) in 2 CD towers.

Keep on thinking.

I snatch everything connected with Roxette. I don’t even know how many CDs I own. Actually when people see my room for the first time they are astonished cos I hanged Rox posters in all imaginable and unimaginable places. My college once told me “I’ve never seen such a fan in my whole life. Give me your autograph” In fact I’d like to remove these posters cos I think it’s so childish for a woman of 29 besides I’d like to change smth in my room. But I’m afraid everyone would be shocked if I do, they would’t understand me correctly. BTW my boyfriend laughs at me he always tells me “ I’m not even asking who do you love more me or Roxette, the answer is obvious” or “ could you hang at least one photo of me on the wall or I don’t deserve to hang on the same wall with Roxette” Funny. Yeah people, I think we will never grow up.

That’s just what Roxette is: An ever-green band designed for the youth. Per will keep on writing songs that are youthful to keep us all young (at heart, at least) forever!! It’s ma-magic!! We are love-sick/rocker teenagers at heart and Per and Marie feeds us with their endless talent to keep all of us young!
I keep my Roxette, Per and Marie cd’s apart from my other cd’s, because they are too special to be just thrown in with the others.
I once dreamed that I will make a room in my house my “entertainment room”, or my “Roxette Room” - paint the 4 walls of the room different colours... The one will be filled with the blocks from CBB, the other will be like the Joyride cover, the other wall will look like the June Afternoon-video and the last wall will look like HAND.
Then, on the floor will be a green, hairy carpet like on June Afternoon. And on each wall I will hang something special of Roxette - a poster here and there, framed vinyls, etc. And, on the floor, on a small table will be my dvd system where I can listen and watch my Roxette-stuff.
Ah, that was just a dream....

Nice to read I am not the only one who has posters of Roxette on all kind of places.
I have in my computerrroom a signed Per Gessle (Mazarin) poster and The Room Service Tour 2001 poster. In my sleeping room I have a very nice How Do You Do!-poster, a Room Service-poster and recently I removed the Have a Nice Day poster and replaced it by the RoxBox-poster.
My CD’s have a special part of the holder, at the place where I can grab the most easily.
Rox Forever!

Per sorts his CDs by colour? I do that with my miscellaneous CDs :-S
Adde said on November 6, 2007 18:43:
I would like to have a special room for my cd & vinyl collection some time in the future, but that require either a larger apartment or a house. Right now i have all cd’s stored in the bookshelf Billy from Ikea :)
The vinyls are in a cupboard of its own.
No posters on the walls for me...

On my Wall in my Room I have 2 Roxette Autograph Cards ( I don’t know if they are even real, because they are from BRAVO) and I also have something like a Mirror with a Frame but with Roxette Picture on it, which I got as a Birthday present a few Years ago(my Mama bought it on ebay!)
Half of my CD Tower is filled with Roxette CD’s which collect
I also have a Treasure Chest( from IKEA) that is filled with allot of LP’s, which I also collect!

Have Fun!!!

As I have to share the room with my younger sister, it’s a bit complicated for me to decorate my, ok our, room with Roxette things. But still I have two Roxette posters on the door. And I haven’t given up plans to hang Son Of A Plumber poster on the wall :D Then I have Per & Anders photo from the last Gyllene Tider tour on my desk. Roxette and related collection (CDs, singles, DVDs, Per’s book, a few LPs) stands proudly in my bookshelf. Then I have Roxette Reviews, articles and stuff like that in my two drawers :P
