The topic basically says it all. Last night Metallica played at Australia's Soundwave festival and I caught Lars Ulrich's drum stick (pictured below) and had the best time of my life. Last month I went to the Big Day Out and caught a drum stick thrown from Band Of Horses. Last year I went to the Soundwave festival and caught 2 picks thrown by one of my favorite bands in Zebrahead (some of you will know them from the first Smackdown vs Raw game with the songs "Falling Apart" and "Alone" and Maria's theme song "With Legs Like That). At the same Big Day Out festival, Red Hot Chili Peppers were the headliners. Right at the end Chad chucked out a drum stick and I caught it at the same time as another much bigger guy and he won the war over it. What have you guys managed to snag at gigs?

Brian Bakers guitar pick when I saw Bad Religion at House of Blues. Lost it, though. ! A friend of mine actually caught Danny Carey's drumstick. That trumps almost anything IMO. Dude if you had gotten Chads stick.... *my avatar.

Got a bunch of Setlists, and have one pick that I got from Ash (it was thrown directly at me, and he very rarely throws out his picks, so it was kinda special). Though most of the bands I see nowadays I actually meet before or after, so I have a good few pic's with bands, signed vinyls and tickets.

In 1987, I saw King Diamond & Trouble in concert. King had a bunch of roses & bit the heads off & threw them into the audience. I caught one & had it in my refrigerator for years before it withered to a brown stick.
Rev Horton Heat threw his pick at me 2 years ago, but it bounced off my hand & the guy next to me caught it.

Dude that is so badass that you saw Diamond. Lucky!

I almost caught a guitar pick from Isaac Brock during a Modest Mouse show. However, some jackass behind me practically mauled me trying to get it, he jarred me so hard that it caused my hand to swipe it out the air, and the pick ended up landing out of reach. Modest Mouse being my favorite band for well over the last decade, I wanted to beat the drunk kid's face in.

I've caught picks/plectrums from local Sydney bands Cryogenic, Mortality and Deadspawn back in the late '90s/early '00s.
I've gotten setlists from Cryogenic and defunct QLD band Crypt in '98.
More recently, the drummer from Hatebreed HANDED me his pick in 2007 (up the front with the young-uns, yep)
Good times.
