Do those include information about what is on the rider & stuff like that? Not entirely sure why, but i've always been rather curious at to what they have...

These Tour Itineraries (Tour Books / Band & Crew Books) include information such as: tour dates, tour personnel (band, management, technicians, bus&truck drivers etc) , maps, promoter, mileage to each gig and daily itinerary pages with detail-information about the venue (capacity, doors, show-time) and the hotel where the band and crew stay.

i.e. from the Mellon Collie Tour August 27 - October 6 1996
Tour Personnel


Tour details August 27th, 1996

so nothing about what is on the rider. odd. I would have thought it included that.

What do you mean with "on the rider"? I don't understand (my english isn't that good).

[CoolAsIceCream]

The rider is the "want list" the band gives to the venue. It says stuff like "we want two dressing rooms, one for the boys, and one for D'arcy" or "we want two crates of beer, but it shouldn't be Heineken, four bottles of French red wine, six bottles of white wine, and 24 500ml bottles of mineral water".

I think it's normal that this isn't included in these tour itineraries, because these are used by everyone who's part of the tour: they contain info for the band and crew. Nobody of the band or the crew can do much with the rider.

Ah ok... I was just looking on thesmokinggun.com & in some bands itineraries it lists the rider details along with the other info. I thought it may be the same with SP. Guess not.

[StarsAtHome]

Here's some of my items. And then there are (promo) posters, t-shirts, sweaters, and stuff not included.

[Mayoee]

kick ass collection, Mr D.

[ShamanO]

i wish i was in a band so i could submit a rider.

if you have a significant other you can submit your rider to her

Here's some of my items. And then there are (promo) posters, t-shirts, sweaters, and stuff not included.

wow! it's just beautiful

I swear I've seen this before

[aaaaargh]

@atextofbraille, @CoolAsIceCream: Ahh, thanks a lot for the explanation.

@drevpile: informations about the rider (or other contract-details with the venues) are not included in the tour itineraries for the smashing pumpkins

[CoolAsIceCream]

i'm only collecting tafh boxes.



maybe one day i can open a tafh box shop.

[ShamanO]

so what you are saying is tat hose wrapped up boxes are empty

whatever you say

[CoolAsIceCream]

yes, that's right. i only collect sealed empty tafh boxes.

[Mayoee]

LOL

Nice picture, Bram.

I still need to get my hands on a TAFH promo boxset.

[joeys]

I am currently ashamed of my SP collection. I'll post it later, once I get more stuff

[CoolAsIceCream]

i have five different sealed tafh box sets:
two different US ones, first and second pressing
a UK one, and a UK one as sold in Canada (with an "EMI import" sticker)
and a US promo copy

and then i have an opened UK one, to listen to

[explodingkid]

...while some of us have none

[CoolAsIceCream]

that's because you're losers. obviously.

[explodingkid]

maybe.. and maybe not... maybe I live in a shitty country where they never arrived and maybe I don't have enough money to get one from ebay..

[CoolAsIceCream]

that's what i was saying.

[matthew1]

come to europe! we have lots of them here, can't move for them.

[ShamanO]

that's because you're losers. obviously.

bringing it here too?
be nice you're too direct
share the love, what do you honestly need 5 of them for?
you are so greedy

[CoolAsIceCream]

five? i have six.

i agree that's enough though. six is enough.

[2appear2disappear]

There are still some stores out there that have the TaFh boxsets hidden on the shelves unopened since the release... I saw a few two months ago

[CoolAsIceCream]

if you want to make an easy buck, you should buy them and sell them on ebay. sealed tafh boxes can go for quite a lot. eh, even opened and used tafh box sets usually go for more than what they cost in stores.

[oldwarpilot]

My collection:

- MP3s of all SP studio albums and all the currently available non-album songs
- The two November Kansas City shows in MP3 format
- Greatest Hits, If All Goes Wrong, and Vieuphoria on DVD [without cases, just the discs in a notebook]

Nothing more or less.

[itzelante]

I got my TAFH box with a guy that had like 10, it was really cheap too. This was ten years ago.

You guys have really nice stuff

[CoolAsIceCream]

here are most of my sp cds:



(does the picture work? it's blocked here at work, so i can't check.)

[StarsAtHome]

It does work. And you have an IKEA shelf.

[CoolAsIceCream]

i have nine ikea shelves.

[Songwriter]

I have all known published songs on digital.
I have all their CD albums.
I have have a couple CD singles.
I have 2 12" vinyls. Gish and Siamese dream. Original and unopened and it's still in their plastic wrap.
A couple of shirts, concert stubbs and all their DVDs.
I have the TAFH box set as well.
No posters.
Still alot more to go. Alas, money and scarcity of SP stuff where I live prevents me from collecting like I want to.
I am very envious of the awesome collections some of you have. Congrats. I'd love to own them all. One entire collection to listen to and read and another entire collection unopened for collecting.

billy's autograph on the back of a caroline pressing of gish. i got him to sign it on his way through dallas during the future embrace tour.

of course, he wouldn't autograph anything for me, but my tall, blonde girlfriend at the time was able to get his attention rather quickly. i really can't say that i blame him.

[attachmentid=4114]

small time for this board, i know, but it's my absolute favorite piece.

How many Zeitgeists did you buy?!
I'm counting near 25!

[CoolAsIceCream]

[afroguy10]

Do you have some sort of way of sorting them Bram or are they just put in anywhere?

[CoolAsIceCream]

per country and then per release, kind of chronologically.

i counted 33 zeitgeists. (omg! sign! machina mystery!)

No, I can't see it on your shelf with the other japanese cds, I know what it looks like cos I have a sealed copy, I'm guessing it's the two next to siamese dream
