You have Dreamcast games. I am impressed. Best console ever. Loved mine till the day the optical drive failed. Still planning on buying anothe.

(P.S Nice Prince collection wink )

yeah, i've got about 100 more somewhere. it was a really great console. very hackable too. you could play mp3s and divx and vcd before dvd players could play that stuff

it was a major leap from the playstation, but the games were still arcade like. whereas xbox and ps2 made games much deeper and took the fun element away for me. but then you could hack the xbox to make it a media centre running xbmc and i had 2 of those for many years as streamers before i got hi def hdmi streamers. i have many movies and all my prince videos on my computer so i can stream them to the tvs in any room. i get fans round and ask them to name any song or name a date and i play it. i can play whatever gig is the closest to the date someone mentions. i've been putting my music and videos on my computers since the 90s. i have way more prince stuff than you can see in the photos that are a few years old. i have 1000s more cds and dvds. i have a stupid size collection

Congrats!

I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think.

I'm afraid my collection, even after selling half of it could fill three rooms. I can't show you a nice pic as it all got boxed in the loft when Nate and Max (my twin boys) were born.

CD wise its about 5 of those racks. For DVD, its less. I've never been a DVD collector as much.

I have obscene amounts of promo displays, props and physical memorabilia. I sold tons off when I moved house in 2005, I still have a museums worth of crap in storage.

You better hide that collection a little better, if a girly gets an eyefull of that on a first date you can forget about it....

the beatles ones i just watched once maybe twice each copy. i saw it on tv too. i used to be able to listen to music in my office so that gave me 8 hours of listening each day, but these days i don't have the same time to get through it all. i've got piles of unheard stuff

most of the plectrums are from prince's own personal stash, collected from various concerts, tv shows etc. i got some from takumi and some from brian. the only one that i know was definately used by prince was the one at the top that prince used at the indigo when he was playing what is hip by tower of power right in front of me (he only played that track one night so it's easy to find what night it was) as it flicked right out of his fingers whilst he was furiously playing the guitar

i can't remember the story with the blue one, but i think it's a rare one and i think takumi gave me it from his bag of plectrums one time and gave me it as it was one i didn't have

i have some more, but most of them are used and worn, some so you can't see any of the print/design. the hologram ones wear off really easy

i also had a lot more but gave them away to people. i had quite a few plectrums from the indigo aftershows. during one of the early nights brian gave me and a few people next to me a load of them in exchange for us looking after the pedals and not nicking any plectrums from it, and then gave out the unused ones at the end of the show

i also have a purple rain and i think 1999 tour pass somewhere. the blue one on the left was from the invite only afterparty after the main gig at the first celly in 2000. one of prince's bodyguards gave that to me

And i thought covering my wall with vinyls and pictures discs and collecting nearly every Controversy and Uptown magasine was impressive.....

sad Gonna go cry myself to sleep whilst burning everything i have of Prince now...
