    Right now, I just want to get a cup of Ed's Wine during Crazy Mary.  Wanted this for a long time, but the closer I get, the more I want it.

  • I'm lucky to not have a grail. I feel grateful I did all the things I hoped and got more than I ever thought about

    ^^A show, rail with you, is my grail.

    Only problem is we'd be jealous if one got more picks. We'd have to split them up!

    You walking away with picks + setlists + signed tambo=enemies for life.

    Just joking....kind of :)

    I hear you my friend.
    I've actually given away many picks and drum sticks and it feels great. And by the same sentiment I've had people hand me sweatbands and picks from just speaking with them and having such great friends with big hearts. I hope one day we can meet.

    i might have responded to this thread before but:

    Vinyl:

    Test Presses. I've been in the record collecting game for almost 30yrs and have never seen or heard of test presses for the albums.

    Vs. on blue

    PJ20 fluorescent

    Ten Sampler 7" set BOX (i have the vinyl but that box is nearly nonexistent)

    Other: 

    1991 Ten Promo Doormat would be cool to own
    Some of the early 90's shirts I dont own (dirty frank, mookie blaylock, black/candles, etc)

    There was a guy selling the sampler test pressings.  That may be the only time you'd ever get a PJ test...

    Maybe the cheapest one too.

    I have the sampler test presses. I have a hunger strike 7" test press too and a 2016 singles soundtrack test. 

    Cost aside, i've never even SEEN a test for any of the albums, specifically ten/vs/vitalogy/no code/yield. I have asked numerous collectors pj and non pj.

    Best assessment is that they were given only to the band and maybe record execs (who probably threw them away at best). I know they'd cost a ton but even just seeing a picture to verify they exist would be a win at this point haha. 

    I guess i could also look into what pressing plants were used and contact them to see if tests were even made.

    Test presses are always made.  The Sampler set was made differently and anything not PJ seems to come out.

    One of the heavily guarded things seem to be test pressings of the albums as I have never seen one either.

    I got one in Ottawa last year. It was pretty awesome. Now I want the bottle 😀

    I got one of my grails during this tour - which was a tambourine tossed to me from Ed. Someday, I would love a band signed guitar - but those auctions are brutal. 
    I really wish they'd do more of those raffle types instead of the straight up auction. only rich fans can win that stuff.

    Handed off a Mike pick I scrounged off the floor. the fan was so happy (full disclosure: black peace pick i have quite a few of). If it was a Jeff stone or ev pick it would be hard for me to give away.

    I'd like to get my baseball signed by Ed and/or drum head signed by MC.  I think this will happen someday. Maybe catch MC playing with one of his side bands. Had my ball and pen once when I waited to meet EV. Big Pete's instructions...he was "not signing anything". So I respected that and didn't ask.
  • I once got 2 Matt picks and gave one away. That was rough but good
