drum stick Options

[brett]

Anbody else out there ever caught a Chad Gracey drum stick thrown into the audience after a show?
He usually tosses about 5 or 6.
Well I was lucky enough to get one in Chicago Tuesday night.
He tossed his last one high and far and it bounced off the facing of the balcony and bounced back toward the floor and right in front and to the side of me.
I lunged at it and caught it with both hands.
I think I must have been the only one to follow it's path cause nobody else went for it.
It was funny. My girlfriend was in total shock that I got it.
The guy next to me said nice grab and shook my hand.
Of course it was all banged up from being played.
I quickly gave it to my girlfriend as a gift for her first Live show.
And before I changed my mind and kept it for myself!
I had first row seats at Navy Pier a few years back and Chad tossed one right to me,
so I already had one in my collection.

Just curious if there are any other drum stick stories.

thought I better put a space in between drum and stick before somebody thinks I'm talking about chicken.

My boyfriend and i among others lunged for it at the 5/11 NYC Nokia show recently. He caught it and gave it to me since I was the diehard fan. Of course he was rewarded in shall we say other ways
Oh, a girl near me asked if she could "touch my sick" i said yes handed it to her but watched her like a hawk cause she wasn't gonna run off with my stick. My first show and i came back with memorbilia, not bad.
