    I have a question for anyone who might know the answer, during the Avacado tour when we went to the Denver show, my best friend and I were commenting on how great our seats were but that we were a little disappointed that we were out of range to catch picks. About ten minutes later this guy walks up to us and says, "I heard your conversation, I hope you have a great show tonight." and he hands us two picks. They were orange with a black avacado on them and then on the other side they said Pearl Jam. I caught McCready picks and an Ed Pick that year at the Gorge, and it didn't look like this orange one. Is it a Stone pick? Anyone else know?

    Yep, it's Stone's. Got a couple of those from him at Lisbon 2 in 2006.

    I'm with you, I don't have any PJ picks, I can't catch, and I'm really short (THANKS A LOT TALL PEOPLE!). I snagged a bouncy ball at the FTM show, and the only pick I've ever been able to get is Nancy Wilson's...I love her, and not complaining, but, I'd love a PJ pick. (I did get two of her picks, so anybody up for trade?)

    What have you guys done with your picks? How have you displayed them....if at all?

    My EV pick is sitting in a bottle with my old ticket stubs....but I will get it framed with my Auckland poster one day soon. I will also frame my McCready pick with an Aussie tour poster.

    I have three of my picks framed. It was actually pretty reasonable pricewise.

    I've never scored a pick from PJ, but I did grab a pick from Brian at a Silversun Pickups show this week. He uses off the shelf Dunlop picks, so there's no way I can prove I didn't just spend 12 cents for one myself :lol:

    that gold one will be very rare, cherish that

    the pick market has been down a bit of late, so anyone looking to build a collection of the older ones now is the time. Last year some that previously were so in demand people offered believe it or not $1000 were selling last year for underv $100.

    I started the pick thing a while agao and gopt carried away as always, I have around 75 now, which is plain silly

    75 PJ picks? Damn.

    I have a fair amount myself, but I've never bought or sold them.

    i don't have any picks, but i've missed out on 2 eddie's... once at 7 worlds collide (light in my eyes, it bounced off my fingertip and a girl a couple of people down the row from me jumped on it :( ) and... well... we don't talk about ziggy's pick because i wasn't paying attention to ed reaching into his pocket, i was too busy spazzing out trying to throw the banner :mrgreen:
