Have you ever caught anything that a band members threw into the crowd? Such as picks or drumsticks or bibles (had a friend catch a Stryper bible :) ).

The only thing I've every caught was one of Tommy Lee's drumsticks. It was on the Girls Girls Girls tour (1987), we saw them 2 nights in a row. On the first night I had a really crappy seat on the side of the stage but at the end of the show Tommy walked over and threw a stick up my way. It felt like everything was in slow motion as that thing came towards me :lol: . When we all got outside to the car my friends were laughing at me and asking if I could see the band from my shit seat, I told them I could see well enough to catch ..... whipping out the stick.... "THIS"!!! They all shit!! :lol:

I also have a couple Kix and Wrathchild America picks.
 
I have Blind Guardian's and Symphony X's setlists and Michael Romeo's guitar picks and Jack Frost's (from Seven Witches) guitar picks.
 
Oh, I forgot, Russell Allen came over to me and gave me a big smooch on the lips in the middle of Symphony X's set, if that counts as anything. :lol:
 
I caught Adrian Smith's wristband at an Iron Maiden gig during the 7th Son tour...I also went to see G3 with Satch, Malmsteen and Vai this past November - I didn't catch anything, but I did jump on stage as they were all walking off at the end of the show and grabbed one of Satch's picks and one of Malmsteen's as well...and got clocked by an on stage security guard on my way back down to the crowd...it was worth it...

Tom Araya sprayed sweat on me at the Felt Forum during the Reign in Blood tour...but that's kind of nasty...

:lol: That's great!
Any tongue action? :lol: Just kidding.
 
Yngwie pick, Stian Kristoffersen drumstick, Viv Campbell pick, Jeff Labar pick, Vanden Plas setlist, (though they didn't "throw it" into the audience) and a drumstick from Blotz. There are many more guitar picks I got, but I don't really remember who they were from.

I had a Joan Jett setlist but have lost it somehow. What made it so cool was that it had a Chuck Taylor foot print on it from her stepping on it all night. :) Wish I still had that thing.
