Description: METALLICA LOAD - SIGNED CD - BACKSTAGE PASS & ACTUAL STAGE USED GUITAR PICK / PICKS! SIGNED BY: JAMES HETFIELDLARS ULRICHKIRK HAMMETTJASON NEWSTED VERY LARGE & BOLD SIGNATURES - WILL LOOK BEATIFUL FRAMED! Such an incredible and rare item! This CD was signed by the entire band! You can occasionally find something that is actually authentic offered for sale - but signed by the ENTIRE band... VERY RARE! This is your opportunity to purchase an item personally signed by all of them! Also included: my backstage pass from the show at the Rosemont Horizon on February 9, 1997, and stage used guitar picks saved at load out. I'm also going to include a Jason Newsted pick given to me as he left the stage after soundcheck that is not pictured here - but in a CD case at my Chicago residence that I'll put in the toploader with the other picks. I had the good fortune of working with Metallica on 7 different tours. They did not stop to sign items together very often and most times it was just a couple of them showing up to a press event at a venue. Occasionally they would all be present. OCCASIONALLY. They would leave hotels and enter and exit venues separately quite often - most times in different limos or shuttle busses. Most times, with friends, family or management with them. Approaching them for an autograph as part of the crew was extremely frowned upon and could get you into a lot of trouble and/or even fired. I had to pick my opportunities very wisely and it often involved a friend with promotion, production / band management and an expensive bottle of bourbon as a thank you. Metallica is one of the greatest bands of this century and 'Load' was outstanding! In over 3 decades, not once, did I ever see a bad show. Gifted musicians and consummate performers. Here is your chance to own a true piece of rock & roll history. I can't decide whether or not I want to frame this piece for myself or simply get it into the hands of another TRUE fan. Undoubtedly, one of the greatest bands of our time and who's music speaks to multiple generations. I am going to offer this up for sale and in the event, it does not sell in short order, I may just pull it and frame it up to hang in my Manhattan residence. I wanted to simply give the buyer an opportunity to frame this in a manner they personally see fit. ABOUT ME: I worked in the live / touring music business beginning in 1986... over 3 decades. In that time, I amassed a collection of items like no other and am now offering a small portion of my items to the public. What you are bidding on is an item that was actually signed by the band / artist, and it is as real as it gets (unlike most of what I see online). If you are looking to purchase something authentic - here is your chance. It will pass any authentication process you wish and is as rare as it gets. I went so far as to literally catalog everything I collected at a particular promotional event or concert and going so far as to keep an actual journal for over 30 years with meticulous notes. I look forward to finding good homes for these pieces... It breaks my heart to sell, but I must part with some of them as I have literally run out of storage and refuse to rent a larger unit. All of these items have been stored in a temperature-controlled storage facility and the framed items were custom framed by a professional framing company to museum quality standards using Acid Free materials and UV / Museum protective glass. Shipping charges cover all packing materials including shipping with tracking and insurance for the full purchase price. Every effort is made to ensure your item gets to you in perfect condition with extreme precautions taken using bubble wrap and proper shipping boxes used. The insurance / tracking numbers are provided immediately after shipping in the extremely rare event any damage should occur in transit. Thank you for your interest.... It's been a lifelong passion of mine preserving these items and the kind words and appreciation mean the world to me.
