So whats the rarest item you got? For me prob En concierto promo but hard to tell i guess, i got, a PI from france with "Smasing Pumpkins Pisces Iscariot" printed in big text and have only ever seen this one. Does anyone know of it? The dude from spfreaks said it was the only one he'd come across too so just wondering how many there are out there I got offered a red 7" tristessa a few months back and didnt take it kicking myself dammit

I don't have too much rare gear, but i do love my Tristessa vinyl, and my Cherub Rock 12'' for that matter And, i guess it's more special than rare, but a Billy/Jimmy signed copy of Zeitgeist keeps me happy! Sunks - Time to bring out that pic of the concert banner again

I've got the japanese TEITBITE Remixes CD. Don't know how rare it is, but I know I had a lot of trouble finding it back in the day.

Sunks - Time to bring out that pic of the concert banner again hehe, I guess that would be the one, I'll need to take another photo of that, can't seem to find the last one. Some other rare things we've collected are: This Stand Inside Your Love/Speed Kills 12" black vinyl promo The PI Yellow/Clear vinyl The Starchildren 7" record (big thanks to Vic (SPChick) for getting us this one!!!! But they would be most likely some of the rarest things we have, we've got shitloads of others, one other cool thing is the HMM Promo cassette ... I think we started a list ages ago.

This is the poster, for those who haven't seen me post this over the years. Its about 3m x 2.5m, it was the wall poster outside the Perth Ent Centre when SP played back in 1996. It actually has some small parts of the wall it was removed from still on it, along with some other posters from when the people ripped it off. This cost me $200, I walked into a record store back in 2000 and it was up there. I had just gotten my tax back and thought - well this is a one off, can't miss this. I got it, its now in our lounge room.

I fixed the link, Rebecca. You should be able to view it now in all its wall-hogging glory.

Just before I went throughmy record collection and pulled out every bit of SP stuff I own. Besides the usual albums and singles this is what I came up with: still becoming apart cd-anyone know the background of this? Think I got off Ebay a few years ago. May We Have a Record Contract, Please-Early demo tapes plus bonus tracks. Bought at a weird collectors shop in Brisbane that's no longer there. $80 Peel Sessions- (not rare I don't think??) I Am One on Vinyl Machina on Vinyl (again not very rare??) And the most precious thing i own- Siamese Dream singles on vinyl boxed set.. autographed by Billy, D'Arcy and Jimmy, complete with ripped out page of 1996 tour itinery with Billy's doodling all over it, folded into a paper plane

Ok I just did my research and found out that 'still becoming apart' was a bonus disc handed out with sales of Machina. For a second I thought 'how come I didn't get one?' Then I remembered I got a bonus Kafanov print with it. Did anyone else score one of these?

I bought this thing that seems kinda dodgy but i actully thing it is legit (and it was cheap) its a tour itinerary from teh 1998 Adore tour. Its a booklet with that colour adore photo on the cover and its full of what days were travel days, what days they had off, where they stayed, contacts for the tour etc. Like their reference so they know what is happening each day. I only bought it because i went the the Melbourne gig on that tour and thought it was cute little collectors item. I will take a photo of it and post it for you all if anyone is interested.
The person selling it had a whole bunch of them, so they were probably a roadie or something like that? I dont know.

Today, I can cross another off the list of SP holy grail items... I managed to buy a 'Rocket' single off eBay today for $45 US. Not bad seeing as the last time I bid on one it ended up going for close to $150 US.

I just sent you a message, dude. So sorry. I set my maximum bid at $90 US before I left for work in the morning and when I got home, I'd won it. As luck would have it nobody else bid on it and it ended up selling for $45.

I was with some people staking out the Windsor. That night, I saw Billy, Yelena (I'm pretty sure) and a body guard dude coming out of the Metro (nearby the hotel). Blew my 14 yo mind - but I frozen to the spot and couldn't summon the courage to approach him.

i love finding out about all this stuff, There's so much out there, I wonder if anyone's actually come close to obtaining it all-the rarest thing I think I have is my Tristessa Pink Vinyl, man I love that-and the 91-98 promo CD.
