Cool merchandise

What cool band merchadise do you own? I'm not interested in t-shirts, hats and posters, it's the slightly off the wall stuff I want to know about.

To start the ball rolling, I have:

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds tea towel
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds bookmark

and my favourite:

Einstuerzende Neubauten chef's apron

The Sonic Youth beach towel will be joining those three pretty soon.

I have this photo by Lydia Lunch.
40x50cm Numbered 1/3 and signed.
It hangs in my livingroom.

I have a collaboration video installation with Mats Gustaffson.
I shot an improvised video piece of ten minutes and he scored the piece with improvised huffs and sax blows. That's like 4 years ago.

It was meant for an expo of mine but the piece was finished too late.
Mabey I shoot look at it again and do something with it.

Here's some screenshots:

Thurston was supposed to score the piece as well but it never came to that. The project still has a weird vibe though.

Take it he puts his hobby into his work.

If anyone and I mean anyone (i'm looking at you porkmarras darling) mentions any merchandise from Kiss (on that note the coffin or the lawnmower rank as the worst) they're so getting a negative rep from the god that is me.

HAHA the Australian punk band Frenzal Rhomb had these stubbie holders (wetsuit type things that cover your beer to keep the coolness) and it actually had the glove connected to the stubbie holder. So you don't have to hold the beer. If you knwo what I mean, and you've seen one, it's fucking funny to see someone using one.

That's the only way you'd ever get me to cook.

But for real, where do I find this? I want to buy one, and wear it out in public.

They were on sale at the 25th anniversary shows last year. They may go on sale on their website at some point, but don't hold your breath.

There's a thread on the EN supporters' board about their merchandise, luxinterior, so I've put a post on there asking them to start selling the aprons again. I'm not the first to ask, so maybe pressure of numbers will help, you never know...

The EN shop is here.
