A red Solo cup  Ace Frehley threw into the crowd when I saw KISS on their first "it's all four of us again and we're sporting the make-up" reunion tour.

The set list from the last Joe Strummer show. Signed by Joe himself. With the extra encore song hand written by him along with " for MARK". With that there is a dollar bill that has been rasta'fied "for Lisa".

i've got A LOT, but probably my Joan Jett setlist.  It still has all its duct tape, and little spots on it from sweat or water or something.  That was a sweaty show.

I guess it depends on who you're talking to. I have a signed setlist from Noel Gallagher from the first Oasis show at the old 9:30 Club, some very cool Pixies guitar picks from Kim, Joey and Frank that have their names on them, a signed Stone Roses setlist with guitar picks...and then an assortment of backstage passes and laminates from folks like Henry Rollins, Bob Mould, the Boo Radleys/Manic Street Preachers, Weezer, the Goo Goo Dolls and Echo & the Bunnymen. I also have a bottle of Corona that Manny from the Stone Roses gave me to drink during the middle of the show that he signed. AH, the memories.

Kind of on the same topic...anyone have any autographs from dead rock stars? Here are mine:
 
 Dennis Danell -- Social Distortion
 Rob Collins -- Charlatans UK
 Chris -- Lush
 
 I thought I had more but can't remember offhand.

Holy shit....
 
 Best I can do is a guitar pick that Pete Diggle reached over a  guy to give to me specifically.  And the Sloan poster Murph signed "To Nancy" in these 70s bubble letters....

INXS wristband that Michael Hutchence gave me during a show a month or so before he, ummm, had his accident and died.
 
 Joe Strummer setlist, coolest so far.  
 
 How'd you get the Motorhead t-shirt from Grohl?

Not rock but I've got a book and CD signed by John Cage.
 
 I had a Wonderstuff CD signed by the Bass Thing (quote "Kiss my ass") but I lost it years ago   :(

I have a drum stick from the Hoodoo Gurus show at the old 9:30, and a beer bottle that Exene from X gave me to pass around (which I did, then got back again)at the old Ontario Theatre.
 Also, at the old club, Dan Stuart from Green on Red got pissed at his bandmates for messing around on stage, handed me his guitar, and walked off.
 Exene also handed me her baby to hold after a show, while she signed an autograph.
 Sadly, both the guitar and baby were taken away pretty much immediately. I didn't even have time for a strum on the guitar or a "Choo-chee coo-chee coo" to the baby.
