I like this. I've seen guitars and whatnot signed by every pickin' person the owner could run down. A bit much of too little, in a way. Keeping it more focused and personal makes it more meaningful and memorable.
I've been in situations where I've wanted an autograph but just didn't have anything handy. That's how I got my Beech-Nut Chewing Tobacco hat signed by Jeannie and Royce Kendall. And somewhere in my T-shirt collection is a Lucinda Williams tour shirt signed by her. I don't wear it much so I don't have to keep touching it up. Kind of defeats the usefulness. Definitely not the right item for this purpose!
But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller
