Autographed Devin Townsend cds

Xmas card from Devin Townsend (has a wank)

A drum stick from Gene Hoglan

Mmm ok not very rare really lol.

I also saw an ultra rare japanese edition guitar instructional video by Devin Townsend, it sold for around $180. I cant find it anywhere else and even I wouldnt spend that amount :down:

Not sure on rarity value, but recently bought the Kyuss CD And The Circus Leaves Town second hand and it appears to have been signed inside - can't make out the names tho! The same happened when I bought The Damned Black Album CD 2nd hand, all signed inside the sleeve! Bought a 2nd hand copy of Ride's Leave Them All Behind 12" in One Up years ago which was signed on the cover.

I also have a Cramps pic signed by Lux and Ivy, a drumstick from The Cramps Look Ma No Head gig at the Music Hall, a signed PJ Harvey ticket from the Barrowland in 2001 (met her in my hotel lobby the next day!), a UK Subs T shirt from Drumonds years back signd by Charlie Harper, that's about it....oh, a Terrorvision gig ticket from the Music Hall years ago, they were all in the Mudd Club after and I got it signed. Let's keep that quiet tho, they were pish, ahem....

I'm impressed with your rather fine collection of swag. I am a big fan of Kyuss, the Damned the Cramps and the Subs so I am envious!

But, please, don't diss the 'Vision. Anyone but the 'Vision. They never hurt anybody.

Aye OK, they weren't bad if you like them I guess but I just went for something to do, not a big fan - was impressed by Tony Wright on his knees propped up by the Mudd Club stage cos he was so buckled! Also had a chat with Stutty the big blue haired drummer in the bogs....

HIM's setlist from the music hall. I wrote it with Tom, the tour manager, in their dressing room. It has all of the song titles changed to titles such as "Poison Haggis", "In Joy/In Codonas" and "Love said Fit Like?". I had to spend a considerable amount of time with my cousin explaining to HIM what all these words meant. It was actually quite funny telling people from Finland was a haggis was. It was the actual setlist Ville read from on stage and is signed by Ville Valo. I'm sure it would be loved on ebay. I'm not even a fan of HIM, but it is the only one in existence, so I quite like it.

Thats really it.

I have a proper Sub-Pop copy of Nirvana "Bleach"' date=' and an original Factory Records copy of New Order "Substance".[/quote']

Ok now that is kool but what you really want is a Sub-Pop copy of the first single 'Love Buzz' only 500 (maybe 1000 cant remember) pressed and individually numbered. I tried get myself a copy but the guy wanted 500 bucks for it lol.

I have a copy of John Frusciante's 'Smile for the Streets you Hold' album that was discontinued in 1999. I think that is pretty rare.

Original japanese pessing of the 'Smile' album 'Gettin' Smile' album signed by Roger Taylor, possibly the only one of itxs kind in the world, as to the best of my knowledge they've refused to sign that album.

Every Marillion Fish era picture disc except 'Clutching at Straws' album including the Market Square Heroes disk of which only a few thousand were pressed.

Signed Ian Hunter programme and biography from last week.

Lots of Fish and Marillion stuff including Ian Mosley's Clutching at Straws Tour Jacket and Mark Wilkinons Welcome to the Garden Party Tour T-shirt, and of course the ioriginal master tapes of the Kettle of Fish interview segment DVD.

Signed copy of High and Dry by Def Leppard, and signed Boomtown Rats album.

Signed Meat Loaf tour programme.

Access all areas passes for Fish, Marillion, H Band and Midge Ure.

Setlists from Fish, Marillion, Ian HunterThe Wikdhearts (PHUQ at the barras), Maiden, Leppard, the Eagles, Quo, and loads of others. Signed Metallica , Marillion and Bruce Dickinson Posters. Lots of stuff much of it split between my place and still at my parents.

My most prized possesions but that mean little to anyone else is the stuff I've been involved in, one of the special release versions of Jo's Papercut & Lime album, and one of the 8 original Radiaxial copies, and the original artwork printing for Papercut & Lime.

Cheers

Stuart
