I'm talking about one that you would not part with, no matter what. I have something that might be the strangest thing...and it was a present in an inner office gift party.

    I wonder if anyone has the original 'Vitalogy' text from 1908, or whenever.
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    I'm sure someone does. But I mean something directly related to the band--a guitar, pick, wine bottle, weird signed material, etc.

    I have a really off the wall thing...not even sure I'd call it a collectible, but here's the story.

    When I went to the Dallas show in '98 I brought along a tiny stuffed gorilla with a sign around its neck that said "Call me Ishmael. Please play Dead Man." Yes, I know I'm a tool, but I WAS young. Anyway, just before Daughter I threw it on stage...at the end of the song Ed picked it up and started singing "Monkey Gone to Heaven." After the song is finished he said, "This monkey's bound for the floor..." and threw it right back in my direction and I caught it! Still got it on my dresser.

    So I like to think everyone at the Dallas '98 show has me to thank for the Monkey Gone to Heaven tag...

    I have 2 half drunk bottles of water that Stone drank out of at the Brad show in Newcastle 2003. I sometimes sip on them while playing Guitar Hero so that the Stoney G DNA can surge through my body and enhance my performance ;)

    EDIT: I REALLY do have the bottles of water. I don't drink them though :D

    when i went to the EV solo newark show...there was a white evil kenival (however the fuck u spell that man's name) EV guitar pick next to my aisle seat

    my friend and i were the first ones in on the right side

    was it fate... that he left it there? fell out of his pocket? that i was there first and picked it up?

    i still ask myself these questions and just glad that i stumbled upon it...its sealed airtight in a bag with the EK EV sticker and white zippo i bought from the show

    A friend of mine caught a flip flop sandal that someone threw at Ed at the '95 Austin show, which he promptly threw back into the audience and my friend caught.

    My friend had it tacked to his wall for, like, forever.

    It's really a weird collectible. it wasn't ed's sandal. It belonged to some random fan ... Ed simply touched it for .0000000001 seconds. And it ended up tacked to this guy's wall.

    Fucking sick, right?

    Whoa ... I was at that show ... and loved that tag. I never saw anything related to a stuffed gorilla ... I was too distracted by fuckin' Rodman.

    But if your story is true, I just wanna say ... thanks a lot for the tag! :)

    really cool in that you caught the very same item on it being thrown back...

    cool stuff

    Not sure sure I like the idea of gorillas being stuffed to throw at Eddie, especially at such young ages mind
