I'm also guilty as charged. Actually, I had a good week, so I decided to reward myself with the jacket. It has the Queen logo from the first two albums on the front and a large horoscope emblem on the back.
As we walked into the HP Pavillion, I saw the tour jacket that looked better than the one they had for sale at the Hollywood show. I stayed for Brian's solo and snuck out when Roger started his drum solo. In San Jose, CA, they only had one medium up on display that was a little small for me. She said I would have to wait until the end of the show to buy it. They rummaged around and found one more large that fit me better. They also threw in a free pin and free coin pick when I bought my jacket.
I'll be wearing it at the Seattle show!

Hey Jim! Sorry I missed seeing you at the San Jose show, but it sounds like you and the family had a good time. Currently, I'm across the Bay from you, on the water in Sausalito. I could get used to this. Would have loved to stop in and check out your shop, but time wouldn't allow. NEXT trip. Dang! If I'd only known you were going to be there, we could have given you our extra tickets. My friend and I had two extra seats in row 2 in front of the catwalk--I suspect that's where Elleinuendo ended up. I'm sure there would have been plenty of room for you, your wife, and your little guy. We had a chance to get first row, Brian's side, so we took it, and had a great time.
Did you notice the little kid in front of the catwalk? His older brother brought him to the gig. Now THAT is a cool older brother!
Have fun in Seattle.
I'm still digging the RS I got from you. The Whirlwind lead and sixpence make it even cooler. Sadly, all I do with it is annoy my neighbors. ;) Rock on dude!
Sorry to hijack the thread. We now return to our regularly scheduled program.

Hi Cindy!
Stop on by anytime that you're in town! BTW, if we were sitting up by you, we wouldn't have been able to say HI to Kirk and James of Metallica!
Hopefully, we'll have good seats for the Seattle show. I'm working on it... I'm going to see Alexi Laiho and Children of Bodom on Saturday night at Slim's and then we fly up to Seattle for another round of Q+PR! I have more Red Specials coming from the UK in a couple of weeks.
Your namesake Steve is off the road now and I met up with him at NAMM in Anaheim in January.
All the Best!
