More great stories. Thanks for sharing Richard. This was the scheduled for the day before Halloween but was pushed back because of the Hurricanes. On youtube there are some videos of him talking about Sandy in Rochester and he also sang the Monster Mash during request time. I just recently decided to go for more in person Rock autographs to go with my sports collection. That Ramones poster is a really nice piece from a great band. Got 1/3 members of ZZ Top the other day to.

Billy Gibbons


Would love to see others music autographs

[David Atkatz]

Wow. I love that Sam Cooke.

[GrayGhost]

Bruce is amazing. I used to have his signature on a sleeve for Open All night, but bought it from secondary market. He's the BEST live performer still around. AMAZING.

you guys should look on YouTube for the clip of Growin up from Louisville the other night. Not only did he grant a sign request for "Growin up" on a guys 20th Birthday, he invited him onstage to sing the last verse w him. Its GREAT. Guy goes nuts. WHAT A THRILL for him.

In 2004 Bruce was campaigning with John Kerry.
They were at the Univ of Wisconsin and guys were hanging out the dorm windows as Bruce did some songs. A couple of guys yelll down and invite Bruce to their room to share some pizza.
Concert ends,,, 5 minutes later there is a knock on their door. They open the door and there is Bruce.
How cool that must have been.

Kid Rock and Mitt Romney signed guitar. Sorry! I had to

[Big Ben]

Love the autographs of Bruce and The Ramones! I'll go a little old school with my music autographs. I was in band during my high school years. For fundraisers, we held a series of jazz concerts over the span of three years. We had to set up the stage and for the Count Basie concert. A group of us had to lift a baby grand piano down a flight of stairs into our gym. Count Basie was a classy man and talked to us about some of his experiences. He signed autographs for everyone who set up the stage and I had him sign my poster after a frantic search around my school for anything for him to sign!

[Big Ben]

One more from my high school jazz concert series. Buddy Rich put on a great show but was very standoffish to put it politely and didn't sign many autographs. But for some unexplained reason, he liked me. lol

[Forever Young]

Here are some of my music autos:

Yes, I did not know who it was.

David,

I said it before and I'll say it again: that W.C. Fields is top notch. For serious.

I only have a couple of rock n roll items:

Johnny Ramone collected baseball autographs for a long time.
He used to buy from me at the National Pastime shows in Manhattan.

As a hardcore punk aficionado, I stumbled upon a few years ago a founding guitarist for the long since defunct and seminal band Black Flag selling 1970s proof records, metal pressing plates and cover art from the band on eBay. Considering those types of bands were about 2,000 miles outside the mainstream and were the definition of DIY, that type of stuff is almost unheard of on the market. I was surprised the stuff existed.

Sorry, he didn't autograph anything, making it off topic.

[HOFautosChris]

More great stories guys. I have met Henry Rollins at one of his spoken word tours as well. Ran across this guys website has some really great Signed Rock N Roll Items.

In 1979 I was stage security for AC/DC (got to meet Bon Scott but didn't know who he was at the time, except he wasn't wearing a shirt ) and Journey, does that count?

Only counts if you have autos, or Bon Scott's codpiece.... Now that's a good story

very sweet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RichardSimon]

I might have mentioned this before but Johnny Ramone was a baseball autograph collector. He would regularly attend the Armenian Church shows in Manhattan and almost always bought item(s) from me.
I never did ask for his autograph since I was not a fan of punk and he seemed reserved and quiet.

[kdixon]

Here are a couple of mine.

[HOFautosChris]

Have scored some pretty good acts this year.

[Exhibitman]

I commissioned a custom card from the Eric Idle autograph, PC sized:

[packs]

I really like that card.
