I've got various signed tickets and stuff, but I couldn't give a shit about any of them because the signatures could have been written by a dog with a pen up its arse.
I would say my long-sleeved GATS t-shirt. It's my favourite t-shirt, and I'm going to be gutted when it eventually becomes unwearable (holes are starting to appear along the shoulder seams). Best eBay buy ever. It's a good conversation starter at gigs and stuff, because I've had people ask me to stand still so they can read the Primo Levi poem on the back

Loads of things! Main thing that makes me smile is the skipping rope I got Nicky to sign during the Glasgow KYE dates!

I have a Nixon promo CD that I got James to sign after a gig in 2007 - I gave him a nice shiny pen I took but it wouldn't write onto the gloosy cardboard sleeve and he said my pen was shit (haha) and in those few seconds I saw other people coming so panic hit me and I shouted did anyone have a pen, everyone ignored me despite nearly everyone having a pen on them but some at least nice road crew member gave James a pen. That's about it really. Just seeing them all in person up close after a gig was pretty amazing for me although I only got to "meet" James but I saw Sean and Nicky but couldn't get near them at all.

Sharpie pens for autographs!
 Haven't met them yet so no wonderful memories like that. I most prize the signed bits I have acquired, my bag and my hoodie. And all my albums/singles of course!

it WAS a set list from Notts Arena 2004, but then I realised it was just a piece of paper. Now I value my Forever Delayed Book or Holy Bible vinyl much more.
Got a weird soft spot for my THB, EMG and TIMTTMY cassettes too and I'm not sure why. Got a pretty sweet Holy Bible poster too.
