I was lucky enough to snag one of Jim's picks from a recent show and it has his signature with #34 below it.  What is the significance of #34?

Jim stated in the past that 34 is "his number" given to him by his higher power. (this is a paraphrase mind you)

I think its just his sense of humor. He signs autographs that way too, like the way athletes do.

Went to Neil Young's annual Bridge School Benefit concert over the weekend.  They have a really cool tent set up where they display photos and posters from previous years shows.  Every year they have the performers sign all sign a poster or pellon.  So I'm checking out last year's pellon and see Jim's signature -

Jim James #37
