Yes Shaun, those are in the curio cabinet. I have to be, uhhh, kinda uhhh, what's the word, uhhh, not sneaky, but discreet in putting them in there. I don't want to overload it and it having looking tacky and gaudy, and by the same token, I don't want to have to explain everything to Mike. Geeezzzz :roll:

And Frank, don't say a word. I know what you are thinking.
Better people....
Better food...

hi shaun. long time no talk. i don't have randys signature. he was going to be around forever, remember? i'd get autographs, have our pictures taken together, watch each others familys growing up, there would be plenty of time for that later, you know...sigh.

he gave me quiet riot 1 & 2 and the demo 3 song record early on. and no, i haven't looked for all those picks i stole from him.

This is another item for the collection with a little bit of a story to go with it.I got this promo sticker (right) from one of the crew on the UK Diary of a Madman tour.The guy in question and the sound engineer, on one of their days off got the job of delivering the press packs for the Madman tour.Taking them down to Bournemouth for the press release.They went to Jets offices is London to pick them up and who was there but $haron Osbourne.She was putting the press packs together which had some cool items among them leather bound brief case, sweatshirt,t-shirt, cassettes, postcards,photos and this sticker.Along with other bits and pieces.So $haron turned round to the guys and said thanks for doing this little favour for her and as a token of her thanks she gave them a 'sticker' each ? and said "Guys and i know how many packs are there OK" ...Tight arse or what !!!

I noticed this 'stage pass' and i thought it was strange having the band members names listed on this ?.As far as i was aware all the 1981/82 Diary passes were like this one below in different colours depending on what type worn CREW PHOTO VIP passes. I know alot of items are sold on ebay and fake copied Ozzy laminate passes are sold all the time.

My autographed pass and his guitar pic from B-ham AL D.O.A.M tour--it was raining after the concert-we always go behind the venue for autographs so I ask a roadie for a pass after the show which is no good now since band is on bus-I see Tommy going to bus and ask him wheres Randy and he says hes on the bus-sure nuff I see Randy sitting by side window-I go to bus driver window and ask him to get Randy to sign pass for me-he walks back to Randy and he signs it as I can see him from front window of bus-next comes Randys gtr tech on bus and I ask him for a pic-hes cool and gives me one-next go back to Randys window and holler at him to come outside in the freezing cold rain and talk to me-he takes a sip of Michelob(beer) shakes head no and closes window drapes-I do not blame him as it was cold,wet and raining..I Think that was the last show for that leg of tour so he was ready to go home. 31 yrs ago and it has went by so fast......
