@FooZealand - was it you who got a special Saint Cecilia key for being an early bird in the official store? Trying to recall the colour and whether or not it came with a note...
I believe he did yeah
Daves Drumstick from the Manchester Apollo gig in 2000. It's nicely framed in my office with some other merch.
I totally forgot to go into Harvey Nicks in London to look for it 🤦♀️ Yep, the Japanese wouldn't ship it anywhere...
I have my Vans complete with box, I wasn't going to get them but they are so cool! When travelling they go in plastic bags to keep them nice. I was lucky I was in the UK at the time and someone else had bought two pairs and sold me their spare.
Love my posters.
I haven't got anything like drumsticks or set lists etc but I do have a signed copy of Dave's book, alas not done in person (being in Australia you all know why......) but he did touch the piece of paper so...
Yeah I got the Sake and the Vans but I’ve never worn them… a bit scared I’ll wreck them, but I did see someone else in them by my house the other day… and it reminded me I still have them boxed under my bed! 😂
I’ve worn mine a few times to FF tribute gigs, they’re keeping ok. So glad I didn’t wear them to Geelong, they would have been wrecked on the walk back from the stadium in a thunder/lightning storm!
You should give them an outing!
Perhaps in the summer I will - can never guarantee the weather round here 😬
Same everywhere! I only wear them when there is no walking or outdoors involved!
I picked some up in San Fran!
Have you tried it yet?
I can’t. It took so much effort to get home (I had to leave my skates behind on the first trip!) I can only save it for a special occasion.
or just never 😅
That’s how I feel. People tell me to just keep the bottles - but I can’t bring myself to open it
Tbh I had totally forgotten about it until someone posted a pic of the bottle on one of the FB groups!
Not sure how long it keeps, you should drink and enjoy it. Having said that I still have cans of Foo Town beer.....
OK slowest reply ever lol - never saw this one or apparently got any notification - anyway...
It was exact same size as the pewter one you could buy in the store - I took it into a bullion dealer and he was like 90% sure it was solid Stirling silver (he would have had to cut it to be certain). Came in a gloss black heavy card box with silver number xx/50. Separately there was a double sided high quality card with a thank you blurb written by Nate.
Been on the hunt for one ever since...
Not seen one at all
Taylor Hawkins drumstick from Wasting Light tour, Sacramento. Actually my daughter got it, her 1st Foo Fighters show!🥁💙
