Playing some records earlier today, and thought I'd mix in I Just Want to See His Face so grabbed my copy of Exile on Main Street.

I picked this up in a record shop about 7 years ago, it's a brilliant copy. Found a little surprise nestled between the postcards that are included - a ticket stub from 1973.

Just one of the many reasons I love physical records.

I generally stick ticket stubs and stuff like that into appropriate record albums as well. Nice surprise when you have forgotten all about them.

Almost as nice a surprise as coming across a joint you'd squirreled away a few years back and then for some bizarre reason had completely forgotten about.
Thank you jesus, thank you lawd.

The ticket stub does not lose any of its potency.

A few years back the LA Times ran an article about Amoeba Records, and one of the clerks related a story about a guy who brought in a stack of old albums to sell.

While the clerk was inspecting condition of the records, a handful of old Polaroids fell out of the sleeves. The guy had apparently stashed them away a long time ago and forgotten about them.

They were of a very personal nature.

The Amoeba crew passed them around and had a laugh about it, while the unsuspecting guy was still in the store.

They've always gone hand in hand perfectly. I used to roll on a copy of Coney Island Baby that I dubbed Lou Weed like the genius I am

It’s not a gatefold sleeve. Wouldn’t Rock n Roll Animal have worked better? ;-)

A couple of years ago I rediscovered my souvenir concert program from the Pink Floyd Wall concerts I attended back in 1980 at the L.A. Sports Arena ,
and sandwiched in between a couple of pages was a crushed pot seed, a couple of small stems from a bud, and a tiny roach from a smoked joint!
Those were the days, and the memories started flooding...Pink Floyd, live in concert, and smoking weed!

Do you remember the busts at the Pink Floyd LA Sports Arena shows in '75?
