my only really unique thing is a lyric sheet from REM's "nightswimming" that stipe threw into the crowd … can you believe he needs lyric sheets to every fucking song they do?
Coolest piece of concert memorabilia in your collection
Originally posted by Chaz, Lover of all Forum Members:I remember driving by the Penguin Feather in Vienna with my mom when i was little and seeing a bunch of mothers picketing outside with signs about how the store sold drug paraphernalia..and my mother explaining to me what drug paraphernalia was.
When Rock N' Roll High School came out the Ramones did an in-store to promote it at Penguin Feather Records in Bailey's Crossroads (if anyone remembers these stores they were headshops as well - I remember wondering why the hell they sold scales in the record stores and what were all these tiny little spoons for???). Anyway, I've got a flyer advertising the in-store signed by the whole band.
Now there is a vacuum repair shop there.
Man this thread just proves I never got any free stuff at shows.
the best I got was Nick Menza's drumstick from Megadeth.
Good lord, I have never seen a more beat up piece of lumber in my life.

My ticket stub from the Talking Heads Stop Making Sense tour stop at Merriweather, and my all-access pass from Metallica's Black Album tour (courtesy of a friend who was in the road crew).
All-access passes are the only way to see an arena show. :)

I have some other cool setlists too. Ones with the comments about the songs (Slant 6 and Superdrag), hand written, and just odd.
contract with U2 to play the Ontario Theater for $2500
The memory of making sweet love to Dido on her tourbus….no, wait, that was my dream last night.
I'm not one for memorabilia, or meeting the artist for that matter, although when the Beautiful South played Cork last winter Paul Heaton was at the stage entrance after the show and my wife got all giddy, which is so unlike her to be honest, so I went up and asked him to sign the ticket stub, which he most graciously did for us. That's my one and only item, which I've probably inadvertantly thrown out anyway.
But markie wins though, hands down.

You might as well have followed that up with a "Yo Momma" joke.

Bruce Springsteen's handwritten setlist from the Richmond show last week.
And the pick from when I got to play the lead guitarist from Washington Social Club's guitar during their August Black Cat show. That was pretty cool.
