A further selection of Ultravox badges – this time from 2009’s ‘Return To Eden’ tour merchandise offer. I was able to make a couple of shows on this tour and one from the following year’s ‘Return To Eden II’ tour and across these there was no shortage of goodies on offer from the merch stall to choose from. This time out a selection of the badges and a key ring… I’m not ruling out the mugs and programmes in future posts! Some of these look a bit fizzy – its not the photos, the print quality on the actual badges just isn’t all that sharp to begin with.
Very nice cloisonné work. The pinbacks? Not so much. Wish I’d had been there but I wasn’t. I should have gone in spite of the expense. Like many other events that haunt me.
Tough call sometimes, if a huge expense and time off work and so on – I guess everyone will have their “if only” gigs – of late I’ve been thinking of the Gang of Four original line-up gig I could have got to in 2005 but passed it by – ain’t never going to happen now, sadly – and the Monochrome Set gigs that I had the tickets for but couldn’t make – still never seen them to this day…
I have another key ring purchased on that tour. Can send photo is your interested.
