But since lost on numerous house moves.

On the setlists I write out, I write out one of the opening eight lines from whatever I'm listening to on the iPod at the time. Not sure if anyone's ever discovered this.

I nicked the setlist at the end of a show they did in Aberdeen last year. When I went round the back to get it signed, they disappeared into their tour bus with it for a good while.

When one of them handed it back to me it was covered in doodles and phrases. It's one of my favourite things in my 'gig stuff box'.

but most of them are typed up which dont mean dick really.

my fave is an old arab strap one handwritten by aidan in blue felt tip.
piglet.. ah

Purely because I went to get it signed about a year later and one of the guys went "Is this wallpaper? Why dyu want me to sign wallpaper". Oh how we all laughed, loltimes.

and also Beirut from glastonbury last year. Although they just sit in a drawer at home I still love them very much.

it's great, they drew it as opposed to wrtiting it.
Worth putting on ebay?
lol.

I'm usually fairly near the front but never actually on the barrier, which probably explains it.

LCD at Brixton in 05. It says "yo" on it.

The National's from the gig at Fopp TCR on the day Boxer was released. The band signed it all and someone wrote the date on it

I have an Arcade Fire handwritten setlist from their first UK show at King's College.
and a funny Loney, Dear one, which is just written on a bluey/green toilet paper towel type thing.
But yes, handwritten ones are best.

Like when you go to see a young band and they play everything they have ever recorded plus a few new ones. That is treasureworthy.

How is this done- does it require a physical probe of the stage area after the show? Or do you ask a roadie for it after?

I saw people pulling up bits of duct and masking tape off the stage after an Editors show- I wonder if those bits of tape are in jewellry boxes, corners of drawers and pressed in bibles now?

probably the one from my first lupen crook gig. the fully signed art brut one is also quite special to me, but it's typed up so loses some points for that.
