Just call me "Roadie."

How did you make the hole in it to put it on the necklace? I have a pick that I want to wear, but I'm afraid to break it.

That's awesome about James and Elena too. They are both great!

^ This is what I did: I took a nail, heated the tip up, and then placed it on the spot where I wanted the hole. I took a hammer and lightly tapped the nail into the pick, enough to where the nail was stuck in. I spent a little while twisting the nail with my fingertips, enough to get the hole worn in a bit. Next I found a hole in my wall (from where I had hung a poster), aligned the hole in the pick with the hole in the wall, and lightly (again) hammered the nail the rest of the way through. The reason for that was because I couldn't get the nail through the pick because the nail had nowhere to go. Does that make sense?

That makes perfect sense to me. I think I am going to try it with a regular pick first so I get the hang of it before trying it with the one I want to wear. Thanks!

Oh MAN!!! That's a lot of swag! Lucky duck!!! And that was a great idea with the pic! I would do that if I hadn't bought a necklace with a built in pick holder... But that is a bit less cluttered than the one I have, so I may need to steal your idea as well

SP sells them at the shows! See if they have any left when you go to your next show

^ Seriously? Had no idea. Well, that might be a fine solution to preserving my pick if Emma signs it. Thanks!

^^ I haven't seen those pick holder necklaces in over a year (since the show in Poughkeepsie last year), but maybe they just don't have them at shows near me? You can find them sometimes on eBay and I see you got the pick pack the website to register them sells them too.

^ Well if I don't find one of those spiffy necklaces, then it's all cool. And yeah, I got the pick pack. Elena gave me Shim's and Mark's pick (which is hilarious considering Mark doesn't even play an instrument that requires a pick ) and James gave me two Emma's, one for me and one for my sister but she was pissed that she didn't get the authentic Emma pick.

Very cool that you have all of those awesome momentos to remember such a great day !!! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the pics as well !

[Missy]

They had them at the Pomona, CA show... But Idk after that...

[angelbear425]

You get all the cool stuff out there haha. They had Mark's drumsticks and the Odd One shirt. (Both I have since got one way or another, but still haha they didn't have those at any of our shows)

That's really cool stuff you've got there! A treasure of memories for sure!
