When you get a new piece of Musical Gear... Be it hardware, software, rack-mount, stomp box, and so on... Put away the instructions aside from the set-up and throw the troubleshoot guide into the trash... Accidents and ignorance creates beautiful mistakes... (Jaco Pastorius : 1951 - 1987)

a night in the life, a memory of a lifetime
A dear friend of mine once asked a good question regarding the concert ticket stubs, of all the concerts you went to what would be the fate of those ticket stubs?

Some of my friends gave various answer, most of them said they would not care if it were lost or just willingly throw it away with no care, but some are care enough to placed them in a special memorabilia box, or even managed to have them framed and mounted up in a wall.

I myself would placed them inside the CD of their promoted tour of the concert where it belongs. For instance, I was there at Iron Maiden's Dance of Death tour or Anthrax's We've Come for You All tour, I would then placed the stub inside each CD/DVD of the album respectively. Thus, if I somehow open up the album and listen to it again in the future, I would find a memoirs from the night of the concert. A bit sentimental for things that should be put away once it over perhaps.

Where do you placed yours?
