    pretty young girls and some high energy guy (who half the time is some asshole pissing everyone around :() are generally a safe bet for getting one...or a kid in the front row, that's 200% safe bet.. Ed's predictable ;)

    so what you're saying is that you're not pretty? ;)

    yep, first 1 was Athens for sure!
    we ALL pointed at her when he got them out..I mean come on! she'd been at the barrier EVERY SINGLE shows and she hadn't got one!
    and whilst I was cheering her from the other side of the T-barrier for getting it he threw the next one to the guy right next to me!
    We took the tambourine on a tour of Athens the next day..it visited the Acropolis :D

    I think he threw her one in Zagreb and some guy snatched it out of her hands, so he came down and grabbed a pick and grabbed her hand and closed her hand on the pick and said to her "this is for you" and then made sure she got the tambo at the next show in Athens.
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;

    almost.. he didn't come down from the stage and didn't give her the pick hand in hand, the stage was too far for that (not too far for Mike to get me his shirt though ;)) .. but he got her the pick yeah when he realised there was no tambo left.
    then we reminded him about the tambo 4 days later :D..I hope it has a nice place in your home!

    LOL! well, you were there enough, you deserve one too!

    I have to thank you for that. If you didn't tell the security guys that I should have been at the front of the line going in, I wouldn't have gotten one.

    That said, Eddie still would have flirted with me during the show even if I wasn't at the front (he can find me 10-15 rows back, even in a dense fog).

    sandra....HOW dare you steal my moment from me!!!!!!! :P ...i havent been carrying that particular pick around in my wallet for the last 2 years if THE man wouldnt have put it directly into my hands....i remember exactly after he has realized that he chucked the tambo out to the wrong person he was looking all over the stage to find something he could give to me instead. after pulling the insides of his pockets out to nicely demonstrate he has ZERO, rick came running on stage to hand him a new pick....that he put right into my hands.


    thats just like the silly brazilians that wanted to tell me that the 8 fingers he held up to me would mean he knew back in 2006 that PJ would tour SA/brazil in 2008. yeah right....lol

    see ya soon....we'll go over the details in NYC with a nice pint ;P

    In Monterrey 2005, while playin' RITFW Ed walked by the side of the stage with the last tambourine, he went just walkin'... looking (with his drunk wondering eyes)... I was in front row, he kept lookin'... lookin'... we made eye contact... and he skipped me. Well, I am a guy, I would give it to a girl too if I was him... dam, I should've worn more eye shadow and that skirt that goes with my skin tone, or maybe I just should've shaved.

    Not everyone, Sandra. But if I get one, you can have it. I'm like the anti-collector. If Ed threw Boom off the stage and I caught him, you can have him, too.

    both tamborines were obtained at Grand Rapids/06, the only 2 tossed out,...Ed tossed the slightly smashed tamborine to me and the new tamborine (which Ed used to wipe all the sweat off his face lol) to my brother, and both were signed at the Toronto International Film Festival just prior to the "Body of War" premiere in Sept/07:

    I have one from Copenhagen last year on my birthday :) I still get an instant smile on me face when I think of that moment... luckily all the people around me were good friends so knew better than to try and take... it was cos of all them I got it anyway :) . I still laugh and cringe slightly when I remember how retarded I became... I didn't know I had it in me :D . We all did pretty well... the girl on my left (Einat) got Mikes jacket and the girl on my right (Babs) got Mike's Tshirt :)

    My tambo's hanging over my bed so I can just look up at it and smile :) and it smiles right back at me every time... such unconditional love between me and that tambo... it doesn't ask for anything!

    At WPB '03 I Had my hands on this one, but as you can see, the other guy won... I took the pic for him, and told him where to download it, since he didn't have a camera with him.

    on a sorta related note, I had my hands on one of John Popper's Harmonicas but lost out on that one too... one of these days I'll get something.

    Careful what you wish for ;).....

    Toronto '03 Molson Amphitheatre 6th show of thew tour for my wife and I.. We are 2nd row dead center. Ed throws out 2 tambourines during RITFW and my wife turns to me practically in tears. "Why doesn't he throw me one, I know he sees me and I'm wearing a Rock for Choice T-shirt?". I tell her they'll be out for another song, you never know. Sure enough they come out for Baba and I'm standing behind my wife. Ed has 2 more tambourines and as he scans the crowd I make eye contact with him and point down at my wife. He leans over and flips it right to her! Amy being highly athletic lets it hit her in the face before deciding to wrap her arms around the tambourine :)

    It hangs on a wall in our basement right now.........

    I missed one by a Butt-hair in Portland on the 06' tour. If I was only 1 inch taller, I probably could've snagged it. :)
