I've only received one setlist... it was at the Stevie Nicks show back in 2007. There was a nice older couple next to me and we started talking about Fleetwood Mac... the man was nice enough to give me the setlist.

And thats pretty much it. I never caught any drumsticks or picks or anything (although JP threw his pick at me, but it curved and landed on the floor next to me and was grabbed by some kid who dove for it  :lol)

I actually think I got mine BEFORE the show. But I don't know how the guy got it (we were sitting near the sound crew, so maybe they have it?)

I was at a small club for both and right in front of the short stage and as the band walked off after the show I'd reach out and snag it.

I actually don't know. I got mine because the guitarist gave it to me.
he stood in front of me and just gave it

Pick from Alice Cooper's guitarist Kerry Kelly

Pick from Alice in Chain's Jerry Cantrell

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.  I have a menu from Alice at Mel's Diner.

Question to the dudes with setlists...how do you get them? Ask roadies at the end of the show?

Usually, it helps if you are right at the front of the stage.  I've been at a bunch of Y&T shows where I was right up front and could have snatched the set list after the show, but girls who were up front wanted it.  At the Y&T show I was at where I got the set list, that was the show where I had gotten to go up on stage and sing with them, and I went and asked their manager afterward if she could get one of the lists for me afterward that were not right at the front of the stage (because I was not in front and couldn't grab those).  For the Lacuna Coil one, again, I was in front right up against the stage.  The tour manager came out right before the show to put out the set lists after doing the mic check, put one down less than a foot away from me, and then leaned down and said "you no take until after de show, okay?"  :lol  Of course, I agreed.  But like I said, the girl next to me really wanted it, so once the last song started, I told her to go ahead and grab it before someone else did, and then I posted up agains the dude on the other side of me that was eyeing it so she could make her move.

Guitar picks:

Thrown

Roger Glover (Deep Purple)
Steve Lukather

Given

Peter Lindgren (Opeth, at one of the semi-acoustic Damnation gigs)

Drum sticks:

Danny Carey (Tool) - It was at the Lowlands festival in Holland. I was standing up front, he threw the drumstick and it landed before my feet. The only problem was that there was a fence between me and the stick. There was one moment where people were wondering what to do. Then I got the idea to just go over the fence with my head and hands. I guess some people got my shoes in their faces, but what the hell. I got that drumstick! ;)

Depends really. I mean with most of the ones I've got I have shouted out the name of a tech or band member after a show and they've climbed down and given them to me. It kinda helps if you know the names of people in that instance. With a couple of them I just tore them off the stage at the end because they were club shows so it was easy to reach them.

For me, as the band was walking off stage, I caught Ben's attention as he was shaking hands with fans and asked for the setlist. He peeled it of the stage and handed it to me. Later, after the show was done, he was on stage signing autographs, as was Dweezil, and I got him to sign it. The setlist is framed and on a shelf in my home office...

I know I made a picture, but I lost it. I also saw in the PoS thread that I promised you a picture of my signed BE poster but I also forgot to do that (few months ago :p). I'll try to remember to make both pictures tomorrow!

Hmm, lemme think, it's not much...
NDV: 2 used drumsticks
Collin Leijenaar: new drumstick
Kansas: a towel thrown right at me after their gig supporting Styx. I did not pay attention and it hit me. Still use it. ;)
mellotrön_: signed drumhead ( https://www.myspace.com/mellotronmetal )
festival with Riverside, Pure Reason Revolution and Jolly: poster from the gig (wish more festivals would do these)

And quite a few setlists from smaller prog gigs (taken from the stage).

Maybe there's more...

Bad hearing.

 :lol

I must have really good hearing (or really fucked up hearing) because I've never used ear plugs and I can't remember ever having ringing after a show. I'm sure it'll catch up with me eventually.... and losing my hearing would be the worst thing I could imagine happening to me.

Unfortunately I've never got anything from a concert but my buddy Ouda (he used to post here a bit) caught Janick Gers' wristband when Iron Maiden and Dream Theater were in Ottawa last month. I was right beside him, too >:(:

Is your purpose in life to make every teenager metalhead that reads your posts to be jealous to the point of suicide? (Well not really, but you get what I'm saying)

Anyway:

Sacred Oath:
Kenny Evans' drumstick
Rob Thorne's pick
Ticket stub signed by band

Dweezil Zappa Plays Zappa 2010:
Dweezil Zappa's pick
Ticket stub signed by Dweezil Zappa

That's all I can think of right now

I have a setlist from Squeeze a couple years ago, and a pair of drumsticks from Carter Beauford of the Dave Matthews Band.  I love that stuff.
