Description

Tambourine played by MORRISSEY during the Boxers Tour 1995 and thrown into audience

Morrissey played this tambourine, named 'Eric' after Eric Cantona, as you probably know if you're reading this listing, during the song 'Billy Budd' at Bristol Colston Hall on 21st Feb 1995. He threw it into the audience and three other fans and I all caught it at once. I held onto the tambourine stubbornly until the end of the show then the other remaining fan and I tossed a coin to agree who would keep it. As you can see from the pictures, the skin has come away from the rim during the grabbing ruck, but it's still playable, should you wish to!

My original concert ticket in the pictures can be included with the tambourine if you'd like it, just let me know.

This is a prized possession, only selling to a good home as I need to pay the rent!

Please feel free to make me an offer or get in touch and ask any questions.
