00:00Riff TV presents Meltdown's Meltdown.
00:07Hey, it's Meltdown. Thanks so much for checking out Meltdown's Meltdown.
00:11Earlier this week on my Twitter and Facebook, I asked you guys the question about cool autographs that you have.
00:16So I thought today we would turn Meltdown's Meltdown into the WRIF Antique Autograph Roadshow.
00:23And here you have it.
00:25Hey, Eric from Promotions has been cool enough to bring in some of his autograph stuff.
00:28And, of course, the golf ball that Hailstorm didn't lose at our golf outing a couple years ago signed by the entire band.
00:34Right, yeah. I got to take him out with Shine Down to hit some balls during our golf outing.
00:39And I let him use my balls in clubs, and that was the one that they didn't lose.
00:43So when they were at Riff Fest last year, I had him sign it.
00:46And, of course, you've been taking pictures for the radio station.
00:48But this was the first band you ever shot, Rob Zombie, and he signed it for you.
00:53Yeah, that was my very first show I ever shot.
00:55I thought that was a cool shot from top of the pathway.
00:58And a couple years ago at Rock on the Range, he was able to sign it for me.
01:01Yeah, Rob's great about signing stuff.
01:03And you've got three items here that all have something in common.
01:06At least one member of the band has passed away.
01:08Suicide Silence with their singer, Mitch.
01:10Of course, just recently, Vinnie Paul and Hell Yeah and Chief of the Deftones.
01:14So that's always something unique to have.
01:16Yeah, it is.
01:17You know, these are all bands that are close to me, Deftones especially, one of my favorite bands.
01:22So this was the first time I got to meet them, and she was there.
01:26That was a really cool moment, getting to talk to him for a few minutes.
01:29And then this one was right before Mitch passed away when they were at Mayhem Fest.
01:33So, yeah, it's unfortunate that they've gone on, but it's pretty cool that I was able to get a momentum like this.
01:38I know a lot of you guys were at the Harmony House in 1999 down in Taylor when all of Black Sabbath showed up and signed copies of their Black Sabbath reunion box set.
01:46This is actually a promotional copy.
01:48It's VHS tape.
01:49And as you can see on the side, it's VHS Hi-Fi Stereo.
01:54I'm here with the promotional Princess Maria, and she's got this really cool Duff can, which of course is synonymous with The Simpsons.
02:01But you had somebody else sign it.
02:02That would be Duff McKagan.
02:04Yeah, Duff McKagan from Guns N' Roses came in in 2009 when he was with his band Loaded.
02:09And this is a really cool thing.
02:11Did you just happen to have this laying around your desk?
02:12Yeah, well, yeah, I had it on my desk, and I put two and two together, and he's really a nice guy, too, by the way.
02:19Very tall.
02:20He's very tall.
02:21And very smart.
02:22Yes, and he's very smart.
02:24This is my autographed picture of Darren McCarty and myself.
02:26This is from the 0405 lockout when we used to play hockey together.
02:29It says on there, to meltdown, keep plugging away and grow a little bit,
02:33and someday you might just make it.
02:36Not that funny, guys.
03:03Hey, guys, check out this vintage football I found right here at the radio station,
03:17autographed by the one and only Barry Sanders.
03:19This bad boy is going to look great in my rock room.
03:22Give me the football bag.
03:26Autographed rock and roll memorabilia.
03:28Man, it's so much fun to collect, and of course, the stories last a lifetime.
03:30If you're looking to build on your autographed rock and roll stuff,
03:34make sure to check out The Riff around Christmastime once again for our 12 days of Riffmas.
03:38Haley, The Riff Rock Girl is showing off some of the stuff we've already collected this year.
03:42Autographed guitars, autographed drum heads, pictures,
03:45all signed by some of your favorite rock artists, and a ton more.
03:48Once again, that's coming up in a few months.
03:50Right now, I'll just soak up the rest of summertime.
03:53Hey, thanks for checking out Meltdown's Meltdown.
03:55The Riff Rock
