| My brother sent me a very cool publicity photo of Dave Edmunds with the Stray Cats. It's black and white and it's signed by Dave Edmunds! Dave writes "To Stephen Dave Edmunds". I will treasure it forever! This picture as i've said is in black n white, from 1989, and dave is on the left of the Cats. Slim Jim is wearing his 'Route 66' t-shirt under leather jacket, and everyone is smiling! Under the photo it states 'Stray Cats with Producer Dave Edmunds. I wish i could print the picture up on here, but it's framed in a very nice silver. If anyone has it please post it so others know what i'm talking about! I would kill for Mr Setzer's signiture on a poster! My brother was very kind, he found the photo in a shop and waited a month to get it signed by the one and only Dave Edmunds when he was on tour before xmas!
What cds, posters, etc have you got that are signed by Brian, Jim or Lee? Is there anything you can show us on the board? And have you got any special memories about the signing?
Thanks. | |

| Lee Rocker CDs bought from his website come autographed. I have about four of those.
He's signed two t-shirts, a photo, and a set list for me after four different shows. He's always easy to talk to.
After the first show I remember him accidentally burning his hand on his cigarette as he was getting ready to sign my photo (too much manuevering of pens, lighters, smokes, etc) . It wasn't a bad burn and I'm sure he was able to play in Cleveland the next day.
I've nothing signed from Slim Jim or Brian yet. | |

| 2005 was a good year because I met Jim in Paris after his gig and he signed me pictures; 2 days later, Brian gave us a brillant performance (Sun Tribute Tour), and hoped to do it again; unfortunately, I waited 2 hours but no Brian. I had the chance to see Lee 3 months later and I met a real gentleman; I took a picture disc with me (Hollywood Strut-The unreleased cuts) and Lee kindly signed it. I've got other stuffs signed but nothing by Brian May I dream FrenchyCat | |

| I got these at the Lyceum Ballroom gig in London on 18th September 1983. They were written on pieces on adverts for forthcoming gigs. They are a bit tatty, but I'm still very proud of them. | |

| Back in the original days of Brian's message board, I went by the name of "Glor reeeee ahhh", ('cuz that's how Brian sings it!). I saw (and met! ) Brian at an in-store appearance at Tower Records on Sunset in Hollywood (oh God, let me stop here for a moment and mourn Tower ~ I don't think I'll ever get over them being gone). I just happen to bring along a scrapbook I made of a couple of Setzer shows I'd gone to. As luck would have it, we got in front of the stage and they did a short interview with Brian that was televised the next day. As soon as he stepped down from the stage, I asked him if he would sign the book (thanks to urging from Scatman!) Look how he signed it: Thank you, Brian! I will always cherish it! I got Slim Jim's autograph (although I don't have it scanned or I'd post it) thanks to a very good friend of mine. It was a photo I took at the Hootenanny and it went all the way to England, Jim signed it and it was sent back to me in beautiful condition where it also lives in a scrapbook. As for Lee, I saw him and his band at an in-store appearance at Amoeba Music a few months back. All four members of the band signed the cd cover of Black Cat Bone. Very cool!! | |

| HEY GANG!! I was lucky enough to have met the Cats after a club date in '91. Lee stayed for a short while before leaving with Jim, who did a dash straight for the bus!! Anyways, Brian hung around and chatted, handed out some promos, picks and signed them for us. I had remembered to unscrew my pickguard off my guitar and he was happy to sign that as well. Jim did a tour in '06 and I finally got to meet him and grabbed an autograph on the same pickguard. I'm trying to post some pix up, but I just can't seem to get them to work!! I have them on photobucket, serving you and imajr, any suggestions or help!! Cheers pete. | |

| Budgie showing off again with his autograph.........you cant beat the Budgie. He will always trump you.
EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND Budgie
Anyway 28th February 1989 Leicester University got a poster signed by all three. I always like a little personalised comment so Brian wrote - 'Cats in the Bag 89' I have this framed.
Man I wish I had got a photo.......probably my only chance.
