What fun Stones items did people who went to the shows buy?


What item do you wish you would have bought?

What item would you have bought if you were a Ka-billioniare with money to burn?

What was the coolest thing they sold?

What did you buy that you are going to give to someone else?


I would love to see pictures of what IORRers took home in 2012 for fun.. model them for us...

As items at shows have gotten too expensive I had tapered back buying too much crap at the show (easy to pick stuff up in the secondary market), but I always like to pick up something at the show... it seems they always have one or two items which are priced perfect and are designed for fans "who know".

To this day my favorite, at the Stones concert, purchase was at the Little Rock show, BB Tour.... and it was/is my black jean jacket, size XL, with real embroiderery on the back of the 1975 TOTA B-52 Eagle. It is still awesome... and only cost 75 bucks!!! I still wear it, I wore it the other day when it got chilly dogs outside brrrrrrrr

Yeah I'd gotten two of them, one still going strong, the other one came unglued when the batteries leaked. They were something like $5 each right?

I wonder how they were worn though as they're pretty heavy, not on a shirt or sweater, a cap I guess?

This time a got a black gorilla mug and a cream "tongue through the years" t-shirt...

More More!!... what else did people get at the show.... do tell

When they started doind event T's for every show, I would buy them, but I got tired of that. Did they have special event T's for the O2 shows? What did it look like?

They had London T-shirts with a map inside the tongue and 25/11 and 29/11 in the back

Ya know what? want a tip?
I think that little tag you see on my pin is the battery number A G 5 .
Hope it helps( and is true)... be sure to take the pin / light with you to the store just to make sure.

Check it out... I found my baseball tongue pin too

Facts be known... those things have CRAAAAAAZY STRONG magnets on them and those things would actaully hold through my ear lob.... or easily through a shirt... but in reality, I put mine in my pocket to keep it safe.... athough at the end when everyone was flashy thingying, we did too.

I looked at the batteries in the baseball ABB tongue and with a superpowered magnifying glass, I see CR927 3volt battery. I no longer have the batteries for the old tongues but AG5 sounds good.

Thanks for the info !!!

Lame stuff.
