[doublesteveburger]

favorite band tees you wore growing up? favorite current ones in rotation? eyes on somethin? possibly selling any?

thought this could be a fun topic


wore this to death growing up

[BartHarleyJarvis]

I bought this shirt from the Urban Outfitters sale rack in 2010 (?) and wore it to absolute shreds

[Candied cigarettes]

Not a band tee like you’re referring to, but i just got this townes van zandt tee:

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

I had a grey spazz shirt that I absolutely loved… other than that I usually don’t have much luck. I want to wear more band shirts though!

[club]

I've wanted an original of this for a long time

Oh man I’m jealous…. I like that material too looks comfy…


I had this in dark green… no clue where it ended up. And it bums me out…

this is all my tees and whats left of my verbal abuse tee, wore it to the bitter end

i also had a 7 seconds shirt with "the crew" album cover on it that i really miss

one time i was wearing a millions of dead cops shirt while i had an interaction with a cop and he wasn't too thrilled to say the least lol

this unknown pleasures tee, despite how meme-ish it has become over the last decade or so, has been in heavy rotation in my closet since i was like 16. i've lost count how many times i've bought and given this shirt away only to find it back in my closet for months time. can't knock good design/iconography

oddly enough i could say the same exact thing about this choking victim tee

holy shit that’s amazing .. i want that

[Coastal Fever]

These two were my favourites that I sadly no longer own;





I still have these two in the closet;

[urbneathme]

self defense family asks: if you hate cops so much, why you acting like one?

i regretfully long for this shirt regularly

[childhood]

Wish I ordered this Muslimgauze shirt before it sold out


Found this at a thrift store or something and gave it to a girl I was briefly seeing at the time, kinda wish I kept it for myself at this point


Not really a tiedye shirt kind of guy, but this Spiritualized tee I wore a bunch got so sweat-stained that it never actually looked clean, so I got someone to dye it


Got them to do this Quasi tee for the same reason

[Coastal Fever]

Those are dope!  Also no longer a tie dye dude, but that just reminded me of this one I used to have that’s half music related..



And I recently donated this one because it didn’t fit anymore.



Forgot I bought this one at a show recently.. the slogan on the back is kinda dumb and prevents me from wearing it much, but I wanted to support regardless and it was the only one they had (not me in the pic);

[doublesteveburger]

dude i have that same spiritualized tee, was it an off white almost blueish grey originally?

it was gifted to me and i swear it's my favorite shirt even though i hate wearing white tee's cause i'm a cheeseburger


adding another one of my current closet gems to the list

[geezer]

This is the only answer

lol hell yeah it was, definitely talking about the same shirt

I'm def more of a black tee guy too, and I originally ordered a like dark grey shirt with a similar design off the Spiritualized merch site, but then they emailed me they were out of stock, so I wound up with that one

These are top shelf. I think I'm the only human to have a copy of that DD tour shirt back print.

I asked the band for an extra copy when I bought the last poster. I love Dropdead. That band really fucking matters.

The last is Dsagawa. My little sister and my friends band.
My little sister has made me proud AF.

[Phantasma Del Mar]

I’ll add to this nice memory lane, my good friend growing up had that Green Day shirt and I have an ex who wore that Belle and Sebastian book club one all the time.
Clockwise from left corner:
Madness 98 tour-Dance Hall Crashers, Royal Crown Revue, Aquabats, Blink 182. Travis barker plays drums with Aquabats and fills in with blink 182
The Queers-Lemuria, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Bomb the Music Industry! and Kepi Ghoulie
Black Sabbath final tour
The Criminals reunion show- Vanna Inget, Dead to Me
Heiro shirt from Del tha funkee homosapien eleventh hour tour-Devin the Dude with the coughee brothers

I bought this shirt (not this actual one) on eBay forever ago but it was too small. My wife wore is as a sleep shirt for a while and now it’s absolutely threadbare. I should still try and resell on eBay.

Was so bummed I couldn’t wear it.

@BallDontLie @straight I got this from this guy hand of gosh, he does a ton of band shirts. This one is really comfortable, good quality and a nice fit.

I love Nap Eyes.  I remember watching Nigel's pandemic videos here and there just to hear some of the new album.

Bought a bootleg version of this shirt on the Venice boardwalk in '89. My Mom hated me wearing it because it had a full size bullseye on the back. She thought it would get me shot

Beastie Boys with Aloha Mr. Hand on the back



Bought a reprint of this maiden shirt and a hawaii one from the same tour
