My wife did have a pretty interesting collection of Warehouse ticket stubs covering the late sixties through the mid-seventies. Lots of cool concerts.


They have a cool poster I saw online made up of old Warehouse tickets stubs. It's about $25, think I'm going to buy it. My dad was a big Warehouse goer back in the day, and I'm still blown away who he was able to see at that place.

I've got a skatedeck (the one with cross and devil) painted by former Wezzer bassist Mikey Welsh.

That is f&%king awesome! My band is covering an In Living Colour song at our next gig. Dude was an unbelievable guitar player. Those licks are insane to try and replicate. It's like trying to imitate the Be-bop jazz masters like Charlie Parker.

Thank you for that. I will not correct my post so that I may forever live in my shame.

Did anyone hit up this combo craft show/concert back in the day?
Not really sure of the year (mid 90's??).



What is the best place to obtain musicians autographs?
I suspect that there are a ton of fakes out there.

I used to have Phil Collins autograph. Not sure what happened to it. A friend of mine saw him in line at a Burger King in Baton Rouge in the late 70s after a Genesis concert. Phil signed a Burger King receipt for him. My friend gave it to me because I was a big Genesis fan back in the day. True story.

I have the same question.

You see tons of stuff online, especially eBay, and I feel like its impossible to truly know.

I have a Jerry Garcia autograph when he signed into the swimming pool at the Buffalo Hyatt where we were staying. It was 7/3/86, the day before the gig. We missed him by about an hour. I asked the kid if I could have it and he refused. I went back to the room, got dressed, went back and stole it. I don’t feel bad. Too much other GD stuff to mention including a funny Branford Marsalis story.

Also have a great picture with Jimmy Dale Gilmore.

Awesome guitar. I saw Living Colour back in '89 or '90 in a small venue with about 200 people in attendance. Muzz Skillings crowd surfed and ended up having his white t-shirt torn off. I had a scrap of his shirt for years, don't know what happened to it.
