The Wildhearts

If the powers that be are listening can I humbly request bringing back the metal badges like the one in the link below:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/THE-WILDHEARTS-ME ... dZViewItem

I stupidly never bought one when I saw them at a gig in Southampton many years ago and now they go on ebay for anything upto £35. There's obviously a demand for them and besides, it would look good on my guitar strap

In fact with the rabid fanatacism of us Wildies fans i'm surprised there isn't more merchandise available for us to throw our hard earned cash at. I know I would.

Yay great idea bring back mr smily bones badge..

i'm no way paying £30 + for a bloody badge

as for other merch.. as i said in a previous post vinal junkie have some cool shirts, badges, stickers and stuff on the website but there does not seem to be any way of actually ordering the stuff !!

Hey....I like that. I'm going for it!

i lost mine

The really annoying thing is my mates got one cos he trod on one at the gig and it stuck to the bottom of his shoe. He thought it was a drawing pin but turned out to be the badge. Jammy sod

Don't need one as i've got a 'Smileybones' firmly tattooed on the top of my left arm!!
Who an I kidding,I'd probably still buy a badge at a gig though!

Forgot about them lol.

I have one stuck in a drawer somewhere

Looking at the site I think you just email them with your address and what you want and they then send you their paypal details to send the money to. I might give it a go cos a fancy a couple of the shirts and the stickers.

Oh well, I tried to give the badge a decent home, but I aint monitoring ebay 24 hours a day. Did one of you guys win it?

Annoyingly, I bought one for a friend's birthday in '95. It wasn't appreciated enough - should've kept it for myself, mumble.

Aw I had one of these things - it was on the leather jacket I accidentally left behind when I moved to Oz. My mates were supposed to mail the jacket to me, but I was soon to discover that my mates were bastards, 'cause I never saw it again. Would love a new one - my new jacket's looking awfully bare!

Just seen one go on ebay for £35

One actually went on ebay the other week for £18. Typically the only one I forgot to bid on.

Yay got one at a record fair in cardiff today... for a tenner

the guy wanted £25 but as it was the end of the day and he ain't done much trade i knocked him down
