[kj] Killing Joke Mug....Not Raven

[Darren A. Peace]

Heh! I didn't buy it. My first job, in the early 80s, was at the HMV shop in
Gloucester. We got all sorts of shit - limited edition 10" singles packed in
what was supposed to be a sleeve full of vomit (clearly, we had to split one
open; it was vegetable soup), inflatable Alice Coopers. We used to share
things out pretty fairly, and it must have been my turn when the AC turned
up.

 

Me? A pacifist? I tell you, inflatable rock stars quake on their sand-filled
arses when I enter the room.

I picked one up at a gig - wasn't Barfly time, was it? I used it until it
ran out, and kept snagging the bottle opener on my pockets. I like
authorised things that seem facile, useless or crap. I'm particularly proud
of my Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Abattoir Blues tea towel. Got an In A Big
Country headscarf shrinkwrapped to a 7" somewhere too.

 

I wonder what's the most stupid music related promotional item anyone here
has? There must be a fair few. I have a Marillion "Fugazi" pack of playing
cards. I have an inflatable Alice Cooper (punctured, after using it as a
punchbag, obviously before ebay. The things I could have sold on ebay!).
What the fuck was all that about? Were there tasty pyramidal cakes to
promote the US single release of "Ziggurats of Cinnamon"?  Was there a
stupid troll Jaz on the front of ... oh, hang on.

 

I would be interested to hear about stupid promo items, whether KJ related
or not, although I noticed Atkins was selling photocopied KJ tour
itineraries on ebay a few years ago, so there must at least be Damage Manual
mk2 toilet paper, at the very least.

Yeah, I have the Killing Joke lighter/bottle opener. It's somewhat
ridiculous.

I noticed there are no more Raven mugs up AND eBay never responded to my
inquiry.  Nor did the seller

Did anyone every buy OR RECEIVE the lighter that was on the original
Killingjoke.com site?
