I've got every ticket stub to every show I've been too.  I know that's not too coll but I like it. Other than that an autographed CD and Ticket stub by Dicky from the Bosstones.

Bunch of autographs, bunch of setlists (coolest being Dinosaur Jr.'s from earlier this year), but nothing in particular seems awesome. I guess Jimmy Chamberlin's drumstick would win, if only because it clobbered my friend in the eye and I got it on the rebound.

Who is Jimmy Chamberlin? He plays drums on the new Rhett Miller album.

I have a filterless Camel butt that Lemmy flicked at my head during a Motorhead gig at the Bayou.

I'm not too much of a packrat or a memoribilia collector (music anyway), but I have a guitar strap from Conrad Keely (Trail of Dead) guitar strap and a set list from one of their shows, a signed Breeder's press photo signed by Kim & Kelly (with the setlist written on the back) and piece of David Yow's shirt from Lollapalooza 95 when they played the second stage during Hole's performance.  It stinks to high heaven.

One of my favorite promos I ever got was when I won a Sonic Youth contest in Chicago in 1992 and I got free tickets to their show, backstage passes, t-shirts, and a very cool Sonic Youth skateboard with the Dirty LP cover drawn onto it. I don't know how rare they are, but it was a really neat item. I should try to get the band to sign it next time they come around.
