What to put in a scrapbook about my favourite band?

I'm making a scrapbook for myself on my favourite band, but not too sure what to put in it. Any ideas? Also, I'm going to be doing lots of writing in it, like about how they formed, history on the making of certain albums. Would it look better if I write this by hand or on computer?

1. I have done this before when I was younger, My favorite band then was Nsync...lol still not ashamed. But anyways, what you include kinda depends on what you have. You could pick your favorite songs and do a page on each of the song's, the Writing is up to you, if you have nice handwriting then I would say hand write it, it just looks more homemade and crafty, I like it more than typed out. If you have been to any of their concerts include the tickets or if you don't want to ruin them copy the tickets at kinko's or someplace similar. I have a color copy machine at work that does great for me. I still scrapbook and anything I don't want to glue I copy, which includes tickets to any event. You could do a then and now page and include pictures of when they first started out until now. Like I said before the supplies you have will definitely decide what you will do. Good Luck!
2. Do you have any concert Tshirts? I've taken pictures of mine & then put that picture with the info that pertains to that tour.. A set list is another thought. They can be hard to get so you may have to settle for a picture of that also, or find the list posted & then copy it. A picture of the sign/marque are also a good reminder where the show was held.
3. It depends on your handwriting. If you have neat handwriting, then I would choose that. Take your time in writing, so it keeps neat. Write the text first in a separate note book, so you have your thoughts together. Then copy it into the scrapbook. As most computer programs these days have a fast amount of fonts, there might be some in there that you actually like. You can always print out in that font and try to copy it by hand. For the ideas for the band, I would include: * pictures of you at concerts * if you have any memorabilia include that. Like said, if you have t-shirts, get a pic of you in that t-shirt * make pictures of all cd's that the band has produced. You can make personal comments with that, like which songs you thought were really good or meant a lot and why. Also include the chart ranking of the song / cd. * include a profile of each of the band members, who they are, some key information, of course a picture of them.
