He bought it for the first album, so all those demos from the first album that are floating around out there where recorded on that. He used it up until 1996. So he recorded all his demo songs from album 1 to BHD on it. It is history that is sitting under glass in my room.
That's so cool! :good:

That's very cool, but why not post a link instead? The limit here is 27K for images.

I bet your friend was beyond thrilled!

Perhaps it'll be on display form now on, instead. Or, he could put some sort of coating over the sigs to preserve them.

yeah they have like a clear coating you could purchase at hobby lobby to cover that right up. I'm a crafty person, and use that stuff all the time on my projects. I used it when Al signed my cell phone case. Works wonders! :Y

There was so many things that happened at the concert to me, All bad..


CONCERT RELATED..

- Aparrently, The 2 Guys behind me were drunk and randomly dancing and ending up spilling beer on me, as they were not paying any attention.
- Some guy smashed his arm into my head and my head still hurts (maybe another drunk guy)

- I got yelled at about 5 times for walking near the casino to get to the concert from my room, and they said if I went in and I was caught, my parents woulda had to pay a dumb $5000 fine, for just stepping.

NOT AL RELATED..

- Someone pickpocketed my cell phone, when I was at the boardwalk, then, I had to run all the way through Steel Pier, Get a security guard, Got them to run after them, and they finally got my phone back.



- When we (my family) were trying to get home today, It took us 35 minutes to find our floor, apparently, each floor of the garage has a "4B" which really doesn't make any sence.

During the night at Showboat...

- Some guy was just walking around the halls at like 2 AM and was wearing heavy boots and woke me up.

- The toilets made loud sounds, and the whole night, I heard toilets flushing.

- Someone was snoring in a room or 2 down, It was so loud, I could hear it in my room.


..Anyone else got bad things, or am I just unlucky?

Good Part..

I made it to the concert, and through all the things that happened, I actually had a good time :)


I wore 2007 concert shirt, Camo shorts, and camo vans, I also have really bulky brown hair, If anyone thought they saw me tell me, I saw James, and Lauren.. I actually walked into Showboat with Lauren, and saw Lauren outside a restaurant this morning, and I saw James twice, Once going down an escalator, I was on the other side with my dad, and In line to get in, I was infront of James by a couple people.

Here are some pics:

Took this shot while I was peeing. Then I took the poster.

You can actually see that Al's eyes are wide open.

Thanks for all the reviews and pics, guys!
Dave, I noticed Ruben's new look too- he looks great! When I was taking pictures at San Diego... it took me a minute to figure out why he looked so different. haha.
