Re: (313) Silly fanboy collectors question...
hrrrmm, lets see... I have a few bits and pieces here and there. UR-001 signed by Mr Banks from way back when. Black Dog Spanners album signed by Ed and Andy (whilst they were playing with Bjork on her Australian tour. They came chatted to me and signed the record cover mid Bjork accapella, they kinda lost track of time and seemed to miss their cue for the next song ;) I got one of my production partners TB-303s signed by Derrick May, Carl Craig, Aphex Twin, Laurent Garnier and a few others I forget now. Shake gave me an original pressing of his 5% solution ep on Metroplex. I think there are a few other things, but these are the ones that really come to mind. - Patrick.

Stacey Pullen Presents Kosmic Messenger – The Collected Works Of Kosmic Messenger 2 xLP I had Stacey pullen sign this for me back in '97. What was funny about that was I had him sign this record for me at a 12 hr rave daytime rave (noon to midnight) that was 4 hours from house, so I had this record on me for the entire event, after party and subsequent shenanigans that I won't go into in a public forum. I had him sign the sleeve in order to protect the wax. You'd be surprised how many dumb questions I had to field during that 20+ hour ordeal. The latest thing I've had signed was the first album by Little Dragon when they played here in Pittsburgh a few weeks ago.

I don't generally go for autographs at all (for some reason I do have a concert poster from the mid-1980s signed by Taj Mahal, and my old Oregon Bluegrass Association membership card signed by Bill Monroe -- autograph signing is a serious ritual in bluegrass circles). I also have a couple that have come my way -- one in particular is KDJ's initials on a Strictly Rhythm release that he put in a giveaway box at Laura Gavoor's memorial event in 2003 at Panacea.

great topic! i had Chris Simmonds sign a few of his records when he was in Detroit in 2000 or 2001. meeting him was a treat. he was so nice. i think i have a cd signed by Carl Craig somewhere. it was always exciting when he came to Record Time. also very nice the few times i got to speak with him, and generous with the whitelabels! one of the biggest thrills of my life was seeing Alexander Robotnick perform in Detroit in 2004, i believe. not sure, but it may have been his first Detroit performance. i first heard Problemes D'Amour on the radio in the early 80's and have been in love with the song ever since. 20 years later i'm standing there with his record in my hand, waiting for the end of his gig to get an autograph. holding the record and a drink at the same time were probably the only thing keeping me from doing some Whitney Houston-style finger waving in the face of the ignorant girl behind me who said to a friend in a nasty tone, who's the old guy?

I do have a signed poster and vinyl from Living Colour's vivid tour (they did an in-store near my house...I was 14...I asked to have my picture taken with the band, I sat between Muzz Corey Glover...all the while FORGING Will Calhoun's signature). I like memories and stories more than autographs: I met Kurt Cobain when he played in Columbus. Talked to him for 5 minutes after soundcheck...this is the night before smells like teen spirit broke on MTV. I got Autographs from Steve Shelley and from Michael Rother when they played together for the Neu! Hallogallo thing. I did get an autograph from George Clinton...on a parliment Tshirt... When I first met Dan Bell, I tried to get him to autograph my copy of losing control'...but I actually got something better: He handed me the first represses of the first four accelerate releases when I visited him @ 7th City. I was given Shake's copy of night drive through babylon by Shake. I at one point owned the DAT machine that was used for all of the Accelerate releases, Most of the +8 stuff, and the first two Dopplereffeckt records.

RE: (313) Silly fanboy collectors question...
I have a signed copy of Green Velvet - Constant Chaos. I opened for him at a Halloween party here in Connecticut (USA) about 10 years ago. I wanted to ask him if a version of Coitus that I had heard on Colin Dale's Abstrakt Dance show would ever be released but never got the chance. I also opened for Joey Beltram and asked him to sign my copy of Beliver. That was right around when his JB3 releases (1996) were coming out. I wore the grooves off some of those records.

Re: (313) Silly fanboy collectors question...
I do have two that come to mind right away Billy Bragg - Peel Sessions (very non-313 I know) I was writing for a local music rag and was sent out to interview him. I've been a fan of his for ages (ever since Talking About Poetry to the Taxman came out) and took along three or four record to the interview. He was having an in-store singing session for his, at the time, new album Mermaid Avenue. I had to get in line with everyone else in order to get an item signed so I did. I was flipping through the records trying to decide which record I would ask him to sign. Seemed like most people had the William Bloke or Mermaid Ave. So I pulled out the Peel Session record - which if you've seen Peel Session records they are unmistakable. He looked at it and said, Whoa! Haven't seen that one for a long time. I was a bit chuffed because ever since I got it around 1987 I played it religiously and for years after it was my absolute favourite record, of which I told him. He was signing all the records with a thick silver ink marker and if you've seen the Peel Session records you know they are silver and black. So he signed his name really large across the entire box of band names that are on the cover in silver ink - which I have always thought looked really cool. It's one of my most prized records. The interview, however, never occurred because he was nursing a sore throat and had to keep his talking down to a minimum to perform later that night. That was his excuse, I know he's always been shy of the press though. No matter - I was happy just to hang out with him the rest of the afternoon. The other is also Larry Heard. I had him sign Alien, again, my favourite by him. I was part of a production team that did a semi-regular house night and as sort of a present to me from my friend (the DJ/promoter) he booked Larry Heard in 2005. We all went out to dinner the night before and my friend made sure I was seated next to Mr Heard. Had a nice, if somewhat nervous, conversation. The following night was the gig so I, again, grabbed a few Mr Fingers/Larry Heard records but decided on Alien. We were standing behind the stage when I asked him if he was willing to sign a record. I did feel like a total dorky fanboy but he very nice about it. He's actually one of the nicest DJs I've ever met. When I took Alien out of my bag Larry told me that it's one of his favourites from his entire career because it's so different from everything else he had done. We chatted briefly about the record and then some other people asked him to sign some items, which he did just as pleasantly as he had with me. A total gent. Since I've been working in the music business in publishing and licensing for a few years I do have a bunch of other signed items but they are even less 313 related. One other item I have signed, that isn't really 313 but was a funny experience was when I was in Bristol a number of years ago - 2004 or '05 I think. I was invited there because I had licensed a piece of music and the artist invited me over to the UK for some potential other business. While I was there I given the tour of the city (basically where all the 2nd hand record shops are). My friend introduced me to one called Prime Cuts which was in the basement of a vintage clothing shop. It was a choice little shop with a good selection. I got to talking with the shop owner, Mike Savage, and as it turned out I was familiar with a book he helped write called Naked Vinyl. I spent a great deal of time in his shop that day and made a plan to find a copy of the book there in Bristol and have him sign it. I went around to about 10 different book stores and finally found a copy. The next day I went down to his shop and he signed the book: From one Michael to another, Enjoy these big titties! Naked Vinyl is a book about album cover art featuring nude women. LOL Then, as I was doing a bit more digging around his shop it began to rain rather hard. Being in the basement, his shop began to flood and sections of his store were in danger drowning. So, he put me in charge of the cash register while he went about getting records off the ground and bailing water. Made for a very interesting afternoon.
