Just thought I'd share this with all you good people. Have any of you ever seen it before? While on the subject, does anyone on this board have anything Bad Radio related? I don't ever remember seeing anything. I would love to get a hold of the old Tower Records cassette! One can dream right!

I hate to be the first to reply to my own topic, but does anyone think this is cool!?! Or even rare for that matter? I can tell you that it is real, I thought you guys might be excited to see this...

George, I think your ticket is very cool. Is Musicians Who Care the same group who put out that LP that featured young Eddie?

Yes, I had bought that Musicians Who Care LP from that guy, I forgot his name and after speaking with him a lot and him realizing how passionate I was about Pearl Jam he "threw in" this old ticket for me! I know you have perhaps the best collection on this board... Do you have anything Bad Radio related?

I have a few EV items that are hidden away but nothing from Bad Radio. What exactly is the Tower Records cassette you mentioned?

This one, it is the original cassette, the only cassette Bad Radio ever produced. It was carried at Tower Records for a while and actually sold out. Ed made the artwork and printed on the old copier at the gas station he worked at in the late 80's. Pretty cool huh!

The Bad Radio ticket is really cool. I haven't seen a ticket for Bad Radio at all until now.

Hm I can not see the pic of the Toer Records cassette? :(

Well said my friend. But that's a part of collecting too that you come across new items you have never seen before. Even if there are already very old. I like it. :)

I thought you guys would enjoy seeing my Bad Radio cassette.

It looks like EV wrote "Bad Radio" with whiteout(!) on the cassette.
First he wrote it in pen like the song titles then went over it with whiteout
(the old school whiteout with the tiny brush).
The songs are What?, Believe You Me, Answer and Better Man (live)

Image
On side 2 it says "Same as other side" with a radio antenna/tower drawn on the cassette.
On the inside of the J-card it shows EV's La Mesa address from back in the day!

This cassette was hand made by EV but I don't think it was meant to be sold at the local record store.
EV handed these out to people he thought could help his band and to friends.
