LET BANDitems BE YOUR BACK STAGE PASS!
All items are obtained directly from a band or one of their crew. There are no 'outside' third parties involved. BANDitems has a long standing relationship with many bands and crew personnel, which is how come so many items have been accumulated.

All purchases will be accompanied by a certificate detailing the item purchased. The certificate will also state that it was obtained direct from BANDitems and detail the authenticity of both the item and BANDitems.

All items are guaranteed 100% original, no copies unless stated otherwise in the item description. If a copy is being offered an explanation of why it is a copy will also be in the item description on this site. If for any reason you have doubts, then your money will be refunded on return of item.

Many items are exclusive items issued only to members of the band or the band's roadcrew and have never been made available to the public. This is an opportunity for collectors and fans alike to obtain unique and rare items that will not only be much sought after but also be the envy of many!

 


 

 

 

 
TONY SMITH
   

Tony Smith is the owner and founder of BANDitems. Some may Tony as the former Tour Manager/personal assistant/fan club president for the popular rock band Metallica. Tony worked for the band from the 1980's until his retirement (from touring) in 1999. His duties with Metallica also included designing, founding and overseeing the band's fan club (The Metallica Club) from 1994-2000. Besides Metallica, Tony has worked with many other major league recording and touring bands!

Tony has founded BANDitems in an effort to try to establish a genuine and personal link between interested fans and rare and unusual artist items. With BANDitems.com you'll find the type of genuine stuff you can't just run to Best Buy or Spencer's and purchase. Most of these items come directly from the band themselves and have often been used onstage and many are autographed!

With the kind of honesty that those who know him (or know of him) have come to expect from Tony, he openly states that BANDitems is obviously an opportunity for him to earn income. However, Tony also states, strongly and sincerely, that anything connected with him and BANDitems is absolutely genuine. Guaranteed!
