Not hanging (due to roof) but I've got some large frames standing on the floor of my office room. We've also got some live pictures hanging downstairs, that we took ourselves at R.E.M. shows. I've also got some memorabilia lying around behind glass doors.

P.S. The posters I've got standing around are two Monster promo posters - maybe Corbijn pics (not sure).

None up, but I've got the tour poster from Twickenham waiting to be framed and hung. Must get around to that…

Never had any. Nor band T shirts.
Even threw away my backstage passes. Completist as I am, I never really got this particular bug.

I have loads of posters, old calendars, magazine cutouts and stuff, but the hubby would be VERY upset if I put them on the walls, so I keep them safely tucked in a box. ;)

Just one's I've printed- Murmur and a flier for an early concert. I mostly have movie posters.
It's all here where I keep it, it's all in the yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine...

Sorry, no posters up! Don't really do posters on the wall. It's been years, since I've done that!
Have t-shirts, pics, memorabilia, though, but not on the walls.

I have some tour posters but they're not up on the walls. Only because I wanted to frame them and put them up nicely. They don't scream REM at all, they're very arty and you'd have to go right up for a close look to see they're REM posters. Still rolled up in tubes, but one day I will get them out. REM have had some great, classy posters over the years.

Oh dearie me, I don't, and there was a point when I thought I always would. I've still got a few, I just never got around to putting them up the last few times I moved. There's still a few up in my old room at my parent's house. That probably doesn't count though. Sorry, 18-year-old-me!

I did in my office when I was a music teacher...Now they're in storage. :( But I have made scrapbook page layouts of the shows I've been to. 'Cuz, ya know, we're crafty up here in Minnesota then. :p

That tour had some terrific art. Are any of those posters still available? maybe I should check out REMHQ.

Well, good news there are still a few posters available from the 2005 tour, including the cherry blossom Hong Kong which I have (rolled up in a tube). But not the one TP posted, sadly. However the Copenhagen poster is an art deco dream. I might just have to get it.

I do! I have the one they gave out at the book signing right before they played Hollywood Bowl last. I also have two others waiting to go up in my new home. Come to think of it, I better take this one down.:eek:
That's me in the spotlight.

I have a few magazine covers I want to frame myself and hang. Because I am an art framer, if now only by hobby. I haven't done it yet, though. And I may not get around to it.
I don't have any posters, but those that came in CD cases (ATS, OOT, etc.)
I have an 03 tour shirt which I wear often (haha, I wore it today!) and I did keep my one and only ticket stub.

I have one from around the ATS period, and another from the AFTP period. Both of those are framed and hanging in my basement. There's no room for them in my bedroom because of all my posters of movies and movie stars!

I have one of the ones from the Accelerate tour, proudly hanging up on my Uni bedroom wall :-)

I had a hat, I put it down and it sunk, reached down/Yanked it up, slapped it on my head:p

No way! After years of bickering about REM, I've just got my husband to accept them as my passion. Having their posters up on the wall would put us back to a war zone. If I lived myself, or even in a bigger house with a spare room or two, then I think I'd maybe have an arty one somewhere. And if he could have his £400 original, signed painting of the Aberdeen European Cup-winning team on display too. Compromise.:rolleyes:
Enjoy yourself with no regrets :D
