Souvenirs from Concerts

Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 12:41 PM by xMissxErikax

What're some of the souvenirs you've gotten from a concert? Post what you got and if there's an interesting story behind it...or something. yeah. Picks? Drum sticks? Set lists? I suppose scars? Etc.

I went to a concert last night and got a Veer Union guitar pick, a Black Stone Cherry set list, a Theory of a Deadman pick, and Blower's (guitarist from Hinder) cup. Some chicks brought Hinder out some shots in a little cup and then he threw it in the crowd and i got it :)

    i got a plastic pint glass and a set list handed to me by jason newsted at a low key metallica gig a few years ago, more recently got, got one of giant metallica beachballs, a ticket signed by jesse from eagles of death metal.
    im the nice one to stand by at a gig, if i get a pick, i usually pass it to any little kids, we all started somewhere!!!

    errmm...I have a bunch of stuff. I'm most proud of my Tony drumstick though...because he threw it straight to me [knowingly] and I grabbed it with both hands and held on for dear life because people are mean and try to grab things when band members are clearly throwing it to someone specific..pff. either way, I got it and it's on my wall. that's really the first drumstick I've gotten at a show..surprisingly.

    another favorite is my rainbow Jerry pick xD he didn't like that one too much. lol. uhmm...I'd have more stuff like autographs and stuff, but I'd rather have a picture WITH someone than have their autograph. I guess photos 'prove' that you've met them more than autographs to me, cuz you can always buy an autograph haha..

    my husband has an old pair of Bret Michaels' pants. I dare someone to top that xD
    >.

    I'd really like to hear the story with the pants...lol
    At least you are smart enough to get pics, I'm usually just sooo into the moment I forget I have a camera in my hand. I met Jesse James Dupree from Jackyl, I met Ronnie James Dio, And I partied with the guys from Tesla and never got a picture or autograph......but the memories will ALWAYS be with me.
    I have guitar picks, drum sticks but the one I like the most is my Badlees autographed microphone. I bought the mic from Pete before they got their break and went back years later to have him autograph it.

    ^I partied with Cinderella & Ratt, hahaha


    seems like the 80's bands that never really got HUGE, still love the party..


    granted... I know they were doing more then drinking in their bus (i mean, once people walk out with coke on their noses, its sort of a BIG,, ya'know... DUH clue, haha) - but we all went to the bar after that... i wasnt 21 at the time either, but the band said I was "with them" so they never carded me.

    bwahaha

    ok ok..I found out about the pants. lol

    Bret wore them in a couple of photoshoots, and they were going to auction the pants off with some other stuff of his, and my husband was like 'well I want those' and Bret's PA Janna said okay. here you go. lol

    I was hoping the story would be more interesting than that xD

    I got a drumstick at papa roach. I got kicked in the head by a crowd surfer with a pair of new rock boots on 0_0 so when the drumstick was thrown and it fell on the floor after me and some girl were fighting for it, the security guard handed it to me :D
