twuepoet Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I went to the March 8th show in Tulsa, OK and one of the stage hands threw me a drumstick signed by Glenn Kotche with the date scrawled next to his name. I'm not sure if I want to try to sell it, but is it worth anything on Ebay or something? It's a pretty cool item. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you do that it's going to send a pretty bad message to a band who is cool enough to bestow such treats upon fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Actually I have far stronger words for this person. First time poster, not a fan, willing to try and make money on a band momento which isn't really worth anything; this is a new low. You never should have taken the drumstick if you didn't really want to keep it. Some other fan will love it like crazy. Selling this is ridiculous... LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

myboyblue Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 You guys sure are harsh on the new folks. This drumstick is likely worth $1100-$2100 depending on it's condition. Good luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 The guy doesn't want it, but plenty of others would cherish it. The only honorable thing to do at this point is to give it away, or have a charity auction. Or maybe an essay contest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
plasticeyeball Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 You guys sure are harsh on the new folks. This drumstick is likely worth $1100-$2100 depending on it's condition. Good luck! condition is important but i think whats more important is weather it was used by glenn or was it just a spare. if it was used, then during what song(s) and on whom by whom. ususally, i like alot of info before i bid but i have a good feeling about this so i'll start the bidding at $1,750.00 sight unseen.

mountain bed Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I have a guitar pick (fender medium) signed by the whole band. That's gotta be worth a buttload of $$$. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j4lackey Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 That's weird. I have a buttload of $$$$ signed by the band, but no pick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

myboyblue Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I decided this doesn't bother me that much.It doesn't bother me either but it's still funny. If a piece of memorabilia becomes more valuable monetarily to you than it does emotionally, sell it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Seriously, it would mean less than nothing to me if this guy were to sell the drumstick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Kinsley Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Great first post. Maybe the drummer in your band could use the stick at your next gig that I'm sure you'll be plugging with your second post. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Cousin Tupelo Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 If you do that it's going to send a pretty bad message to a band who is cool enough to bestow such treats upon fans. It's interesting that he signs them before they get chucked out. Maybe the roadie made a mistake and he signed it because it was his favorite stick and he didn't want to lose it. You might want to check and see if there's an address -- drop it in a mailbox like a hotel key .... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caliber66 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Honestly, if Glenn is so concerned about what happens to the sticks he signs, he should hand them out himself instead of giving them to the roadies to distribute. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
