I got some sweet mastering headphones and an oxygen 49 key midi controller with 9 sliders and like 10 knobs, etc! My mom also took all of my releases (I give her a copy of each album I put out) and had them framed so the art and the actual disc can go up on the wall. Ohh- some Scott Hansen (Tycho) prints for my apartment too!
Anybody get some cool musical gadgets or anything?

Planet Earth DVD box set, Lonely Planet book on Scandinavia (was thinking of touring either Iceland or Sweden next Summer, but now Finland looks amazing too!), cash towards a new PC, bottle of Jim Beam, new wallet, DAB digital radio. Various other little things too - chocolate etc.
Spent the afternoon setting up my little nephews new radio controlled car for him. He broke it in about 10 mins
