Title: What NMA memorabilia would you keep?
Post by: dilla on January 26, 2015, 07:26:42 PM: Due to moving house and downsizing,I've got to get rid of my modest collection of NMA related bits n bobs.Eventually it'll be on ebay and I'll post here when I put it on.My question is-Which one item of NMA memorabilia would you keep if you had to get rid of all the rest?

You can always buy another CD, but that stuff is priceless...

Post by: Red on January 26, 2015, 08:16:05 PM: All of it

How can ya choose ;D ;D

The one I regret getting rid of years ago was an original Vengeance tour poster that I got from a mate who went to see them at Retford Portherhouse (Slaughterhouse)

Retford wasn't even on the tour when the posters were printed, to top it all it was fully signed by all 3 of the band.

I saw an ad in Record Collector for some NMA vinyl so did a swap

Wonder what it would be worth now

Post by: Rusco on January 28, 2015, 05:18:43 PM: For me it's the Huxley's Neue Welt 30th Anniversary gig poster + signed drumstick by MD.

I don't have a lot of memorabilia though. Markxe, can you remember was there a similar version of poster of English part of BDAW tour from 2013?
Title: Re: What NMA memorabilia would you keep?
Post by: MARKXE on January 28, 2015, 05:37:05 PM: Rusco
I don't think so but I only did the German leg of the tour so not 100% sure.
Excellent poster though :)

Post by: Amandistan on January 29, 2015, 05:58:59 AM: I don't know because i really don't have much memorabilia from any band that I like. I buy the music, t-shirts and enjoy getting a setlist from time to time. I guess i would keep the drumsticks that Micheal gave me in Athens. He handed them right when walking off of stage. It was really sweet of him and it was a very happy moment for me.
I am downsizing too as I am about to be homeless by choice.

Post by: claireinblack on January 29, 2015, 07:55:38 AM: I'm currently getting rid if loads of stuff from my other band so the answer would be none if it!

I'm with Amanda in this, I buy the music, the tshirts and that's about it.
Prefer to spend my cash on tickets

You're joking, Viv, aren't you? No? Hmm, that would certainly suck. Although I'm 100% sure that the friends who gifted it to me weren't those who took it off stage. Either way, I'm confident there will be a NMA gig or two for me this year to go to and I promise to bring the capo to give it back to it's legitimate owner. Until then please let JS know that the capo is well and I handled it with care :'(

Crime solved (well, at least the stolen good reappeared) after nearly 12 years - not that bad. So don't tell me the internet is good-for-nothing ;)

No. It's the way the family works. :) Would be an awesome thing if JS gets back something which was stolen years ago and a devoted fan bring it back, whether it was the stolen one or not.

Post by: dilla on January 30, 2015, 09:36:40 PM: Years ago,a friend of mine jumped up on stage after a gig in Coventry and nicked Justin's wooley cardy(the one in all the videos with the hole in the sleeve)Always felt guilty,and years later apologised to Justin who just laughed it off.Friend never remembered what he did with it :(.
Would love the cops to find all the stolen equipment from after the Robin 2 gig
