Edinburgh 93 my sister in law caught a drum stick at the end of the concert.
I joked with her that she should give it to me because i was the bigger fan
she said i could have it when i turned 30
That was when i was 18.Last year i turned 30 and she came round with a present that was gift wrapped and guess what it was



it was really cool cos id forgot all about it.
You can see where its been bashed and abused by Mr Michael Bland
I would say this is one of my more treasured items in my collection.
Have you caught anything cool at a Prince concert?

I think I caught the flu at Sheffield in '95. I was in row 2, so it might have been from one of the band.

i knew that was going to come.

My brother and I were at a Prince show at the Minneapolis Glam Slam in the early 90's, where Prince threw out handfuls of Hershey's kisses. I still have the one that I caught.

Hiya muirdo,

Micheal B handed me a drum stick

I did actually grab a handful of the gold confetti that dropped during Gold on the '95 tour - I thought it would be a cool souvenir. Of course, you can get gold confetti anywhere...

THE FUNK!!!!

No over the counter cream would relieve it either.

Actually, it's still with me. Best diagnosis I have ever received!

Caught P's guitar pick on the 1999 tour in L.A.

what a strange reply.

muirdo said:

no it isn't that strage. "catching hell" is like "getting shit" or likened to being given shit or smack or troubled.

Both two shows were amazing. I have fond memories of Days Of Wild as performed on that tour. So many differentt akes on that song...

A purple streamer (whoopidy doo) at a musicology show in 2004. . . and my date caught beer on her pants from the drunken Jimmy Buffet fans that were sitting next to us...
