Have you ever gotten autographs, other goodies, or a chance to meet the band fro!
Question: I got to meet Everything, Collective Soul, Buju Banton, Chevelle, Coal Chamber, and Full Devil Jacket...and got autographs from all of them.
I have also seen Incubus, Rusted Root, The Cranberries, Type O Negative, 10 Years, Sevendust, B.B. King, and The Barenaked Ladies...no personal autographs, but a lot of guitar pics, drumsticks, towels, water bottles, setlists, and t-shirts got thrown at me. and if you've ever seen the Barenaked Ladies, you know that I got a lot of Mac and Cheese thrown at me, too.
My mom has seen Journey and Poison, and besides autographs, she got hugs from Steve Perry and Bret Michaels!
The things I value most that I have are Morgan Rose (the drummer from Sevendust)'s beaten up drumstick, and Rayna Foss-Rose (the ORIGINAL bassist of Coal Chamber)'s bass pick. They're sentimental as they've been my favorite star couple for years, and Rayna is super-nice in person!
So, what about you? What's the one thing you value most that you've gotten from a show?

Yes, I got an autograph of Elvis Presley many years ago.

It's nice to see the new generation of groupies following in their mothers' footsteps.

I've been to the Lime Rock race track in CT (I live in CT) and got some autographs from the pro racers.

my cousin got a guitar pick from the guy frm the fray
I met Travis Barker and got to play his drums in the studio.
i havent gotten an autograph from anyone famous.
well, actually, i got an autograph from a hockey team and an arthour of a book and stuff, but my school provided it.
I only met the Dave Mathews Band. They worked out in the same gym I did. So my brother and I whooped em at basketball. None of us really cared who they were though. They were just guys at the gym.
no
haha havent met too many... ive got autogrpahs from the all american rejects, simple plan and umm i think thats it. ive met jeff from cute is waht we aim for and uhh yea thats it.
sounds like your more interested in telling US who you have met more than US telling you who we met.
Yes, I got to meet Mickey Heart drummer for the Greatful Dead, and chatted with him for a long time. He is a great guy and I got to see his recording studio and his drum collection. That was a great day.
I haven't seen him in concert, but my friend is very good friends with Flavor Flav, so I got to hang out with him. We smoked, of course and watched some of Public Enemy's old videos on YouTube and drank some beers. He is chill, and a very nice person.
i once worked local crew for a concert

Well, I got a daughter outta Phish tour 99. She's my love child! lol........when I was pregnant with her, I wrote to the bands newsletter to ask for a sticker for her baby book......to my delighted surprise, they sent me a congratulations postcard signed by all four members of the band. I have it framed & LOVE it!
I've seen too many shows to count.......and been backstage to 10 or more shows, but I don't like being a starfucker. When I meet a musician, I definately don't ask for their autograph. If I'm lucky enough to get to meet them, I'm not gonna screw it up by begging for some ebay-scribble. But props to you, if you feel comfortable doing that!
Peace
This was many years ago (about 11 years), but it was still awesome. We saw Green Day in Denver, during their Dookie tour, but before they were huge. We were just hanging out behind the smallish venue, smoking cigs and Tre and Billie Joe just happened to come out of a door we were standing next to. They were very nice to us 17 - 18 year old punks and they gave us all autographs and actually invited us to hang out with them for a while. As a drummer myself, I got all the Tre signed stuff - drumsticks and a signed used drum head.
Ha what a cool question. I work in the concert biz (security) so i've seen A LOT of shows over the past 5 years. I've gotten a chance to meet some rockstars. I have to say even though Lars Ulrich is a prick on the some kind of monster movie, he is a nice guy if you have a chance to talk to him.
I've gotten a lot of cool swag over the years but I think my most favorite thing is a Carlos Santana guitar pick that his tour manager gave to me the first year I was doing security.
The Eagles security managers know me by name and give me a hug every time they are in town.
I have pass sheets, guitar picks, backstage passes, drum sticks, posters.. just a bunch of stuff.
I've gone to tons and tons of concerts and I've met the one's i've wanted to meet. and i've gotten a few autographs myself. i wont mention every band because then my answer will get boring like your "question" did!
i have only met people like you who have been graced by luck and fortune to have so much from a bunch of famous people who are just like everyone else except they have deeper pockets. i just never have gotten excited about well known people. A few years ago at the mall in El Paso my wife and I ran into Gallager at the mall. I spoke to him for a couple of minutes but his mind was somewhere else.. I think he was concerned he could not find his driver I know he needed to get downtown for his show that evening so I offered to help any way I could.. I am just raised that way I want to help. But he just blew us off like we were psycho or something. From that point on I do not feel like they are above anyone else.
I met the main singer for NeverSet. Right after I passed out at the Sevendust concert... God that sucked. Anyways, thats my close call with a singer.
Partied with Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels
Joan Jett had a crush on me
