Here's my poster I was referring to in my room in this thread.
My friend Pete (which many of you have met) took the picture at Chicago's Goose Island Fest back in 2000 (which was the first time I met the guys). My parents had the picture enlarged and framed for me as a birthday gift the year after I believe.
Cut to 2006 (where it came off the wall I think for the first time since I put it up ), I took it to the Vernon Hills, Illinois show and had it autographed there after the concert.
Dave signed it "Oh Jim Tons 'O love", and there's a little story behind it too. Dave asked me if I wanted anything personalized on it... I kind of hesitated and said "Oh, Jim"... and then my buddy Pete sarcastically said "Tons of Love", so that's what he wrote.

This is their RIAA award for GDU which I'm sure many of you have seen on eBay. Many of these are listed for $150+, which I don't think I'd ever shell out... but I couldn't pass up a deal of $35 for it. I think I got it probably around 2003 or 2004. One interesting thing I did learn about this award though is that is one of the very few RIAA awards to be displayed in a landscape position.
I used to have the GDU, LYDLS, and Clam Dip posters hanging up at my other house, but kept them off here cause I want to paint these walls sometime soon.
