Strangest band merchandise...

What's some of the strangest band merchandise you have seen?

I have an ANVIL fanny pack, which I think it pretty darned goofy.

Also have an order form for the METAL CHURCH neck brace, which is pretty funny.

The Kix Cold Shower Tote Umbrella. It's sold out too! And I almost bought one myself.

I thought the KISS KOFFIN was really hitting a low point for Gene and his merchandising. As much crap as they like to slap logos on, for some reason that one really bothers me.

Jimi Hendrix wine, a product that was in bad taste due to no small fact that his death was attributed

When I got the AC/DC Bonfire box set years ago, it came with an AC/DC keychain beer bottle opener that I still carry on my keychain to this very day.

I remember reading a review at the time and the writer pointed out that he too thought it was in bad taste to include a bottle opener in a box set tribute to a singer who died because of an alcohol mishap. He's got a point.

Going back to the Kiss koffin, Gene also promoted the fact that it could be used as a beer cooler as well. Coming from the man that has such a disdain for alcohol, that bothers me too.

The Kiss Urinal cakes seemed a bit odd to me.

My friend has a RATT mouse pad

I have an Iron Maiden mouse pad. Mouse pads are pretty common, but a RATT mouse pad is pretty funny.

Hey Scott, I complmented your bands set at C-stone in the "memoey lane" thread

Not too odd but I have an Eddie figure with him dressed like the Trooper. It's sort of a bobble head.

tourniquet cofee?

Didn't MEGADETH have coffee for a while too? Or at least Dave's wife's company was making it? Not sure it had the MEGADETH name on it anywhere.

I think RUSH was selling golf balls for a while there.

Here you go ToB

I am a huge Doors fan but I have been unable to bring myself to buy this item.

I used to own a KISS Christmas tree ornament.

The Lordi bib!

Never bought any of these Rock In A Box figures that included KISS and Rob Zombie and of course:

A local Session shop (specializing in skating and snowboard clothes, merch etc) are selling Slayer sneaker.

Yes! and I bought the Dave Mustain mug. Left it on my tv cabinet and had the stereo turned up too loud and it vibrated the mug off the cabinet. It fell onto a barbell and shattered all over the place. If that stupid barbell that I never use wasn't there it probably wouldn't have broke.

I almost bopught the MegaDave coffee, but when I mentioned it to a coupla buddies, I was ridiculed and changed my mind. "Dude, it's just plain f**kin' coffee".

I bought this when they initially had it. Not really good coffee IMO, coming from a coffee addict that I am. I don't think that Mustaine one can be any better.

I don't think he has it anymore, but at one point, Henry Rollins had a link on his website for his choice of coffee bean. It wasn't officially endorsed by him as far as I know.

It was just a link on his merch page that said something to the effect of "I drink allot of coffee. People ask me what kind I drink. I tell them this..."

While it wasn't exactly merchandise, some of the promo versions of Mortification's Blood World came with a Mortification Barf Bag bearing the inscription "Doesn't this world make you sick?"
