@ytserush: I'll let you have Fish, let Nick have Fish-era Marillion, and give myself h-era Marillion
since you stated, so gravely, "I gave up on a lot of the Marillion collecting (and a large chunk of my fandom) when Brave came out". You have an impressive collection, but a lot of it seems to be Dick's solo stuff. I'm not as big of a fan of his solo work. Nor do I like other band member's solo stuff, like Wishing Tree. I don't think that they should count. I am a nut ball when it comes to Marillion in general, though. ESPECIALLY with my man-crush on Hogarth.
I own every release that EMI and Racket Records have ever produced (just as you seem to, for the most part based on those pics), including all FRC releases and ReFracted! series, vinyl records (even with HitR on vinyl in the mail as I type this), signed posters and albums, artwork, passes, Weekend (convention) wristbands, window decals, tote bags, closets full of clothing, bootleg tapes/vinyl, etc. I'll take some pics of what I have in my collection(s) tomorrow. I'm still unpacking my stuff since I just moved, and a lot of it is still in moving PODS.
In the meantime, here are some pics: some are ones that I took when h came to visit me. (I even got the news station where I worked at to get him on as a guest that morning. They had no idea who he was, and I had just finished breakfast with him; thus why he's tired and barefoot in some of these pics):
Ha ha! I made him take this picture! I love it!
Some pics of the rest of the God Squad:
Pete with his Hippie friend!
Me, with God, ready to get our "drink on"!
h is yelling at me because I woke him up too early that morning, and he's tired!
God, holding a hand-made flower:
Me with Kayleigh, Rick, and Lucy Jordache at Weekend '09:

Now, stay out!!!!
The question is: are you the biggest fan of Marillion on DTF if you don't like the band,
anymore, that you have collected a lot of memorabilia from? I think not.
