Brag! Show off some paraphernalia!

Sucky camera phone, but here are a humble few!

Trunk lid from my demo derby car a few years ago.  In my living room.


Real jar of unopened Killer B's Honey from 1991


Kmorg got this signed and sent it to me!


Various walls of honor stuff:

I don't really have much out of the ordinary, but the music man cave is almost finished with posters and records framed (autographs and such); and then I will post a slew of photos.

Nice stuff John. I wish any of my stuff wasn't in boxes for the past 7 years... (insert crying emoji here).

And I would not expect your wall of fame to not include at least a bakers dozen Kings X items.

My favorite piece in my "collection" is a No More Tears tour program (yep a program) that was given to me by CBS records when I had the privilege to go backstage and meet the Ozzman, Randy, Geezer and Zakk (who was all of 20 I think at the time) on that tour the 2nd date in 1992. Oddly enough the "meet n greet" was each member by themselves and 1 person at a time to "meet" them. Randy and Zakk were just happy to be there and very very personable. Geezer said all of 3 words but was kind albeit quite quit. Ozzy too was very kind, almost shy and very soft spoken, he made a point of repeating my name and saying how nice it was to meet me while signing my book. He like Randy both made a point of writing my name and a quick phrase, I think Randy wrote "Keep Rockin'!" before their signatures.

Writing this is a nice reminder of a MUCH MUCH simpler time and the memory has been rekindled. Thanks John.

Anyways a pic would be cooler but these items are as mentioned packed away, quite possibly never to see the light of day again.

All my stuff is in storage pretty much, but I took this video a few years ago when life was better. It's not everything, just what I had in one room. The room wasn't big enough for everything, and it's pretty much the only rom I was allowed to decorate lol

Everything was cool....until the PACKERS SHIT SHOWED UP!!! haha. Those Maiden pics are cool!

I can't even remember how i got lucky enough to get those. I bought them directly from Derek Riggs through emails I received from his wife. The thing I can't remember is how I found out they were for sale, and how I contaced her to begin with. There are supposedly only 100 of each printed, but they aren't numbered. All I have for a certificate are the emails we sent back and forth. She was really nice, and they had more the were selling, but I ran out of money lol

I thought there might be a certain ride cymbal in among the items your photos, John

There was a ride and a crash.  They went on to lives of glory in REAL bands.  I often request Marty to learn Metal on Metal, though!

Nice stuff there my friend.

I seem to see an underlying thread within these threads and that is a statement/sentiment "when times where better", "my stuff is in storage" and my least favorite "the only room I could decorate/et al".

Shame we are going through times of difficulty, I wish for all of our woes to begone and our stuff to be gotten too, unpacked and enjoyed once again...

Thank you.

Times aren't really that bad, just not the same. Back then I had a house I was renting with more space than the place I live now. This time next year, I hope to be in a house again where all my stuff will be freed and displayed in all its glory once more.

Far as the decorating comment goes, it was a bit of an exaggeration. I had other stuff displayed in the house, that was just the bulk of it at the time I shot that video. My cds and records were in the living room, along with posters and various skulls and stuff here and there. However, the wife would put her foot down if I decorated the way I used to when I was single lol
