That's a pretty heavy souvenier. How disgraceful.

It amazes me what some people think is 'fair game' when it comes to souveniers. Hugh's brown jacket got nicked backstage didn't it? A few years back Lemmys famous black skulland crossbones hat was stolen backstage by a fan with one of their beers in his hand... sadly for that fan, the entire fanbase was out to kill him and eventually someone spotted it on display at a party and stole it back and returned it to the rightful head but I mean, come on - a fucking gravestone? Next they'll be diggin up remains..........
If Dave was to use a Hammond L100 for just one more gig I'd die content.

Julian Cope used to have a dog-suit, I think it was, that he used to wear on stage and it was stolen one night backstage in Glasgow. As he told the story, he had naturally written off ever seeing it again, then, over a year later he was playing the same venue and when he got off stage there was his dog suit again, left back stage by who ever had nicked it. He said it was exactly as he had left it, except for a load of new hash burns in it, and he surmised that whoever had taken a fancy to it had obviously been sitting around in it for a year, smoking a lot of dope.

Jim Morrison’s grave is, like, the fourth most popular tourist attraction in Paris. S'true- there’s The Eiffel Tower, The Mona Lisa, some fucken museum, or something,…and Jim Morrison’s grave.
You know what's always baffled me? See after all these years of folk going on and on about him, all that speculation- Is he dead? Is he still alive? Did he go into hiding and all that shite, I just think that it’s a bit fuckin’ weird that no cunt’s dug the bastard up yet.
And smoked him.
I mean, can you imagine how high you'd get?
Even folk who wouldn't usually take a smoke must be tempted by that one- I don't usually partake, but it is Jim Fuckin’ Morrison!
I imagine you'd get handed that joint and cautiously taking a small toke. Then an appreciative longer one, nodding and slowly grinning in the time honored tradition. On the third draw you'd be the Lizard King, capable of doing Anything.
Probably.
