"It's been a long, a long time coming, But I know a change gonna come"

First of all, I'd like to make an apology to people who normally read this blog for not updating in a while, and sorry for making this one so many entries but my computer has been dead for a few days because my power cord broke so now that i got a new one, here are some new shirts to enjoy or hate, whichever you choose. either way, thanks for checking out the blog.

This Anthrax shirt should have been in the last entry because i've had it for a few weeks now but it was in the wash or something when i made the last entry. It's a reprint of a State Of Euphoria shirt which i also have a back patch of. The artwork on the back is by Mad Magazine artist Mort Drucker, which really rules because i'm a huge fan of Mad Magazine. Also just got Anthrax - Persistence Of Time on cassette from the thrift store yesterday. Sweet Find. Got this shirt on ebay, it's a size small.

This is a shirt from the band Cheeky (http://www.myspace.com/cheekyli). One of my new favorite bands. The drawing is by Kate Wadkins, the bass player and it's of a character from the movie Over The Edge. I recently went on a weekend tour with Cheeky and Screaming Females (http://www.myspace.com/screamingfemales) who still holds the title for "greatest band in the land" by Perry Magazine (does not exist). Over the whole weekend I heard a lot about the movie and when we got home i decided to buy it on ebay. After watching it 3 times I can honestly say it was worth the hype. Great movie, great lines, and stars a super young Matt Dillon who ruled. At the bottom of the drawing it says "grow fins, turkey" which is a line from the movie and a Cheeky song title. I Highly recommend checking out this band and downloading their demo for free at http://quoteunquoterecords.com.


I saw Stymie (http://www.myspace.com/stymietx) play recently at Fuck Mountain in New Brunswick NJ and after hearing some hype about them, I can honestly say they live up to it. Stymie is from Texas and shares members or maybe one member of the band ANS. They play pop punk but not like normal pop punk you're probably used to. Their punk as fuck pop punk. More attitude and aggression than most pop punk bands. Please, for your sake, get their 7". It fucking rules. As for this shirt, I don't even know what to say...umm...i don't know what's going on there. Check them out though.


This next shirt is from a good friend of mine, BK. He has one of the best shirt collections i've seen in a while. It includes many 90's shirts that i only wish i owned. However he only rocks an XL so they'll never fit me but im gonna get this one taken in or at least have someone sew the design onto another shirt for me. Considering I was born in 1985, i did not know much about MOVE. But after hearing about it and doing some research, I have come to the realization that it is completely insane. please read more here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOVE

I found this Devo shirt on ebay. It's a bootleg but it shows some artwork from the inside of the Devo album "new traditionalists" and i'm sure was in others. It's a drawing of a button they sold for a while. Their merch catalog came printed inside the record sleeve. Found this shirt on ebay. Booji Boy would be proud.

Trial By Fire was a band from DC. Melodic Hardcore on Jade Tree Records. Definitely an under looked album in my eyes. Their drummer Mike is in The Loved Ones now. Buy this album though, you will not be disappointed. http://jadetree.com/releases/product/JT1070
Got this shirt on ebay as well.


The next two Metallica shirts were purchased on ebay. My old computer repair guy printed a bunch of the 2nd ones when he worked for this printing company. He sold a shit load of them to someone on ebay and now i came across one. However i think he sold the screens too because they were shipped from Thailand or Japan or something crazy like that. They're printed on this almost greyish, faded black colored tagless tees. I really like that they look old but not in an annoying Target style way. They're super comfortable and not too common. Stoked about these. I think i have like 10 Metallica shirts now. Shit, that is so unnecessary.














Played with this band Friday night and we're playing with them again on the 25th with Paint it Black and Cloak/Dagger. They're called Stay Sharp, as you can see. Listen to them at http://www.myspace.com/staysharprules. The myspace address does not lie.


Umm it's a dog printed on a Screen Stars Tee. Can't deny that. Got it last night at a thrift store. Super comfy and simple design. Gotta love dem dogs.

Dumbest shirt that makes me laugh everytime i see it in a thrift store. This time however, it was my size so i had to get it. So dumb and Farside-like but I enjoy it. Thanks for reading and please check back soon for more shirts. Hasta la vista Dude.

I Think I'm a Clone Now

After work today, I had a sudden and normal urge to go to some thrift stores. So i went to The Salvation Army first. First I found a sweet Bart Simpson hat which I didn't take a picture of though, I probably should. But after that i found this great shirt. Now I'm not sure that i've even seen this whole movie considering the last recollection of actually seeing any of it was about 6th grade in my science class. It's labeled as being an XL but i guess it's a child's XL. Sweet shirt either way.
Next I found this tuxedo t shirt. It's a long sleeve which was a plus in my book. It also has white trim around the bottom of the sleeves to give the effect of a white button up under the tuxedo jacket. Now I've seen a billion tuxedo t shirts in my day but this one is a step above the rest. It fits perfectly, it's not too thin, it's super soft AND has to be from the 80's which was a great time for t-shirts. Definitely happy with the shirt finds today.

I ordered this shirt recently on ebay and finally got it today. Now a lot of people i know are not into this band at all but you really can't deny "too fast for love" that album is just incredible. This however is from the Shout at the Devil tour. It may just be a reprint from an old screen but the print is a little off and printed on an old shirt so maybe it is an original shirt...who knows? It's sweet and a little small but I'll make it work.


I guess I'm breaking my own rules here but i also got these today and as Ice Cube would say..."today was a good day" for thrift stores and Perry that is. Seriously...Weird Al, Johnny Cash, and LL ?? YOU CANT BEAT THOSE FINDS!God Bless America dudez. Let's get a black dude or a chick in office next year. Or a black chick even. That's be sweet. Maybe Beyonce could run or something. I'd vote for her for sure. Peace dogz.

Burrow Owl Burrow Owl Burrow Owl Burrow Owl Burrow Owl Burrow Owl Burrow Owl Burrow Owl

This first shirt is a classic Dead Milkmen design. I've always wanted this shirt and when I was younger and first got into them i opted for the Big Lizard in my Backyard shirt which I still have and rules. However this is a classic milkmen shirt. If you're not familiar with the Dead Milkmen, you must be living a sad boring life. Not only are they one of the greatest bands to come from Philadelphia, but they are one of the most underrated punk bands ever. I can't even fathom how they wrote most of those songs. Seriously incredible. I also just bought the new Low Budgets album from Itunes. The Low Budgets have Joe from The Dead Milkmen and write some fucking sweet songs. The new album is great too. I wasn't sure how'd they 'd top " go for broke" but so far this new one has a lot of promise. Can't wait to see them again. Got this shirt from ebay. Ebay is my thrift store for the winter. The thrift stores are holding back on T-shirts during the winter cause they need to make room for the sweaters, and long sleeves and jackets and all that boring stuff. So I'm really looking forward to this good weather. Who said global warming was a bad thing? If we're talkin T-shirts here...let the global warming commence!
This next shirt is a Flying Coffin Brand I bought from Deep Sleep (http://deepxsleep.blogspot.com) in Old City. Deep Sleep is like a boutique clothing store. At least i'm pretty sure that's what they consider it. Anyway, flying coffin has some sweet shirts every once and a while and this is one of them. Flags burning? hell yeah. FTW or some shit. It's sweet as hell.


I've been trying to find this shirt in my size for a long long time. Green Day's dookie is one of the best albums i've ever owned. I dont think i know anyone who dislikes it. I first got it when I was in 3rd grade. My parents would take me to South Street which for all you non-philly dudes/ettes was a happenin place for a long time. You could go there and get some decent eats, and fulfill all of your punk rock needs in one trip. I remember the one day we went and I really really really wanted this album on cassette. So I finally saw it in the Tower Records that used to be on South Street. We're in the car leaving and it wasn't in my hands. I was sooooo bummed. Now I forget if my dad ran back in to get it or if he already had it and tricked me but somehow I got it and we listened to it the whole ride home. I wore the shit out of that tape when I got it. I used to redraw the artwork from the album and hang it on my door in my bedroom. The fact that it was called DOOKIE only made my love for them grow...especially at that age. This is definitely an album that never got old for me and has had a huge impact on my life musically. And when I realized there was a secret track on it I was so stoked. I had never even heard of something like that before. I mean, at the time i listened to a steady diet of Erasure and The Boss, so as you can see this was a huge deal for me. Also as a side note...Erasure and the boss still rule. Sorry for the blurry picture of the back of the shirt. The close up is decent so you get the idea.


Now I've been seeing this Metallica shirt on ebay for a while now. It's Black album era Metallica and super creepy looking. This is a straight up photograph of an old dude printed on the shirt. It looks insane especially in person. I've really wanted this for a while as well but never found my size until my friend linked me to it not realizing i've wanted it for a while now. It's a size Medium but because of the age, it fits perfectly like a small. However Metallica brand shirts are a little wild in the neck area and the collar is a little big but i guess it's not terrible.



I think i paid more than i should have for this shirt. It wasn't an insane amount but i should probably limit myself a little more often. Anyway this is a sweet shirt nonetheless. Simple design and it looks bad ass. I know a lot of people think Metallica started sucking after And Justice but those people need to get real for a minute. The Black album fucking rules and you know it. Not my favorite by any means but not nearly as bad as people make it seem. Also a Metallica brand Medium but fits like a small with the same collar annoyance but it's all good. Thanks a lot for reading the blog, and feel free to leave comments. You don't have to be a member or whatever. I really enjoy any feedback possible and the fact that you're reading such a mindless blog from a mindless dude rules. Much apreesh. Also, this summer should have a lot of promise for new shirts so keep checking back. I update about once a week or so.
Laterrrrrr

Hoof Arted?

The first two shirts in this entry were picked up at the Buffalo Exchange on Friday for about $9 each. My friend Kara works there and told me she was hoping I'd be in because these two beauties were for sale. Both smalls and super sweet. As a side note, my Metallica shirt collection is growing quickly. I have 2 on the way.







I first heard of Daniel Johnston from the Kids soundtrack years and years ago when I got it on tape from a thrift store. I heard the Daniel Johnston songs and wasn't sure what to think. Next thing i know, years later the dvd came out about him. It took me forever to finally get around to seeing it but when i did , i was blown away. I instantly started getting his albums and I got hooked. If for some reason, you haven't seen this movie, please do yourself a favor and buy it. I also just recently saw Daniel Johnston live for the first and possibly last time . It was one of the greatest shows I've ever seen. If you have the chance to go see him, please do. I ordered this shirt from the Daniel Johnson website a while ago but they sent me a medium instead of a small, so i just re bought it and i'm gonna sell the medium to my friend. This is the small. Hopefully more exciting shirts on the way!
laterzzzz

"I wanna be your shirt, so I can hug you while you work. I wanna be your wife, so you can beat me every night."

I don't think anyone cares what brand shirts these are but if you do have a question, feel free to post a comment asking one.
Here is a Modern Lovers shirt I got on ebay. It's an obvious reprint but a great logo and an even better band regardless. I highly suggest checking out their albums.

This is another ebay find. it says "PIGS IS BEAUTIFUL". What really made me want this was that Captain Spaulding wore a shirt in House of 1000 Corpses that said the same thing and I thought it was pretty great. So that pretty much convinced me to get it.


Nothing fancy about this next one. Got it from a thrift store in Jersey. I like sharpies and it's a simple design with sweet silver ink. That's all I have to say about thaaaaat.

This is my new favorite shirt. I don't get it but It rules. Seriously in my top 3 shirts now. If you get the saying, please comment me about it. This was a very short entry, by the way because I'm tired as hell and I have work tomorrow. Goodnight and thanks for reading!

"I got a new shirt, for school yesterday and my mom said i looked real handsome in it"

Well it has been a while since i've updated with any T-shirts. A little less than a month to be exact, but GOD DAMN did i obtain many a shirt since my last inquiry. I also included a personal favorite at the end of the blog, so enjoy that when you get to it.
I've gotten a lot of good responses about the blog lately and apparently a lot of people are reading it so thank you for checking it out and please tell anyone you think may be interested in it to check it out. Also feel free to leave any comments anytime. You don't have to be a member or anything to leave one so please enjoy this entry, hopefully i'll update more frequently again. Thanks!

These first three were ordered online at punkstuff.com . The site has some awesome horror movie shirts that are hard to find anywhere else. I'm assuming that's because they make them themselves. I've seen plenty of shirts for these movies but not these exact ones. Anyway, they also have some punk band shirts too so check it out because the prices are more than fair and the shirts look sweet. These three are all size small, Fruit of the Loom brand. The first one is from the movie DEAD ALIVE which was also known as BRAINDEAD which is easily my favorite Peter Jackson flick and also one of the most gory, bloody, pus-filled movies ever. I don't suggest eating anything while watching it because you will puke everywhere. Shit rules.
This next one is Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1. The 2nd is one of my favorite movies of all time but i never see a shirt from that movie that I really love besides an original promo shirt that i can only find on ebay like once a year. Anyway, Leatherface is probably one of my top 3 favorite horror movie "bad guys" if you will. I mean, you've never seen Jason or Michael Meyers cut someones skin off and wear it as a mask right? Fuck no. Dude is badass.

The final long sleeve i got from punkstuff.com is this Evil Dead shirt. Evil Dead is another great great horror movie. However, it is not THAT gory or scary. More of an overall great, classic horror movie. Evil Dead 2 however, is my favorite. (sorry the first picture of it is a little blurry)



This is a shirt from a band called War Pigs from Doylestown PA. They play some sweet hardcore that's influenced by some sweet rock bands including the almighty Black Sabbath... obviously. They put on a good show and the singer, Dion is apparently bizarro me... Wacky D, if you will. So i promised Dion I would give him a shirt of mine once I seperated the ones I wanted and was willing to get rid of from the big count i did recently. He insisted that I get a war pigs shirt for the trade, so he gave me this. It's a size small Jerzees Brand. The front is a big white cross. I think you're supposed to wear it upside down or something but i could be wrong. On the back is a picture of Harry S. Truman with the War Pigs logo on his forehead, sticking with the "war pigs" theme. Thanks Wacky D. also check out http://www.myspace.com/warpigshc be sure to tell 'em Large Marge sent ya!



The next 3 shirts prove that i spend too much time in New Brunswick, NJ.
This first one if from a very good friend of mines band, Screaming Females. Now if you don't already know my obsession with this band, I'll spare you. Just check them out for yourself. http://www.myspace.com/screamingfemales
or check their blog at
http://screamingfemales.blogspot.com
This shirt is a size small Gildan heavyweight. The lead singer/guitarist in the band is Marissa and she drew this and all of their artwork. You can see HER blog here...
http://forgottengrin.blogspot.com
I also highly suggest seeing them as soon as you can. They put on a great show and you will either leave thinking you should never play guitar again or that you should start practicing a lot more. Check them out and you'll understand why.



This next shirt is another New Brunswick band called Zhenia Golov.
(http://www.myspace.com/zheniagolov) Also printed on a size small Gildan. I was playing a show with my band in York, PA and i recognized this girl there who happened to be wearing the NEXT shirt I have posted in this entry. So we got to talking and it turns out we've seen each other at a few shows in New Brunswick and know a lot of the same people. Her name is Chelsea and she is super cool and ended up trading me a Lighten Up shirt for this one. The other shirt they had was pretty cool too but the drawing on this one is just really really great. The singer/bass player, Rob's dad drew it and the design of it is just genius. I'd really like to see more artwork from him. check out the band though for sheezy.
This is a shirt from the New Brunswick force known as Fun Ghouls. It's a misfits tribute band that only plays once a year i think? I still haven't seen them but i hear they don't play much or at all anymore. My main man Fish is in the band though and he hooked me up with it. It's a size medium which is normally too big but im hoping this baby will shrink down to perry size. It's on a Hanes heavyweight 50/50 and hand screened from what i can tell. Great band name, great logo and all that too. Thanks Fish!
http://www.myspace.com/funghouls If you're still reading...THANKS! This is a shirt from the band The Shemps from NY. We've played with them once and I've now seen them twice which isn't nearly enough. They are fucking sweet and i'm not sure why i haven't ordered the records yet but I'll get on that soon. Anyway, they play really rock n roll influenced punk and put on a great show. The dude in the band and I had to look for a shirt that would fit me out of what they had left. This is the closest we got. It's a size 14/16 Fruit of the Loom heavy cotton shirt that is too small but i'll figure somethin out. Not too much else to say about them i guess. Check them out though.
http://www.myspace.com/theshemps


Oh man...Rest In Pieces. Buy the album My Rage. That's all. Shirt rules. Size small.


My friend Eddie found this me outside somewhere? I forget but I'm a huge Beasties fan and this is from the Hello Nasty album. It's way too big/wide on me and is worn to shit. But it rules. The tag is ripped so I don't even know what size or brand it is but I always wanted this one when i was younger and the album came out but never got it because most of the shirts were only L, or XL. I do have 2 other shirts from this album but only one that really fits me. Eddie is a t shirt man like myself and a good friend. Thanks Eddie!


Now this is a very special item. It's an original Elvis Costello shirt from the Imperial Bedroom tour in 1982. Definitely in my top 10 as far as Elvis albums go. It cost me 51 big ones but it was well worth it. When I'm going to spend good money on a shirt, it has to be worth it and this one was for sure. It fits perfectly and is the only "official" elvis costello shirt i have. It's a "the knits" brand size small baseball T. It will definitely be in heavy rotation until it falls completely apart. If you don't listen to Elvis Costello, go out now and BUY "My Aim is True", "This Year's Model" and "Armed Forces" then everything after that. The dude is a music making machine and has more or less put out 1 or more albums a year since 1977. In my opinion there hasn't been a bad one yet.





Big Ups is a band from York PA, who I met about a year ago at a show Lighten Up played. They play Supertouch influenced hardcore and are pretty good at pulling it off. Check them out at http://www.myspace.com/bigups2007
The guitar player, Colby recently released a split 7" with Big Ups, and my band, Lighten Up out now on Upsidedown Records. Check out more info for it on their myspace along with their songs. But about the shirt...it's a size medium Jerzees brand and is a little big but there aren't any left so i'll take what i can get.


Will is the singer from the band Big Ups and he, knowing that I would have to write about it here, gave me this next shirt. It's actually pretty awesome because on a trip to Virginia once I searched everywhere for one of these that would fit me. So here's a size small Gildan "Virginia is for lovers" shirt. It's a classic design/slogan and a great one at that. I've been searching for a coca cola shirt for a while now and this one caught my eye for sure. I got it on ebay and it is prettyyyyyy awesome. It's a size Large "Coca Cola" brand shirt which is pretty cool. It smells like laundry detergent big time since i haven't washed it yet but it's not a big deal. It's a little long which dissapointed me a little and the collar is a little weird, I'm just hoping it will fit better after I wash it. Also in case you were having any doubts...Coke is better than Pepsi. The only thing Pepsi had going for them was Ray Charles in their commercials but he died so if you're still drinking Pepsi, you got the wrong one baby...uh huh.

I got this recently at a thrift store. It's a shirt I used to own when i was younger which i find myself re buying a lot lately. Typical 90's shirt you've probably seen on a billion kids. It's an Adidas logo that says "the brand with the 3 stripes" under it. The back is the same reversed. Nothing too fancy or great, just something that reminded me of growing up which is a nice feeling when it comes to T shirts. Adidas brand, size small.


__________________________________________________________________
AND NOW FOR THE GRAND FINALE!
This is my Bar Mitzvah shirt. The time in a Jewish boy's life when he finally becomes a man. This was a special day for me because I made mad dough and read from some gnarly scrolls. Actually it's just a big accomplishment in a jewish dude's life. The other two were just major bonus'. If you're not familiar with a Bar Mitzvah, a lot of them have a theme at the afterparty. Mine was The Beatles. I was a huge Beatles fan when i was younger and I wanted to do something cool for the shirts that hasn't really been done by any of my friends who were all having bar/bat mitzvahs around the same time. So we went to this airbrush place (RIP the fad of getting shirts airbrushed) that my dad's friend he grew up with owned. We thought of a bunch of ideas and this was the best one. As you can see it's the cover of Abbey Road with ME airbrushed in with The Beatles. They pretty much photoshopped the cover and airbrushed me in there. I was wearing some of my favorite clothing choices of that time in my life. An army jacket with khakis, and a ball chain necklace. The sign in board was the same but with more background and i had Doc Martens on. The shirts were made with some quality iron ons and we had all sizes unlike most bar mitzvahs where you show up and you have a large or nothin. This is a size Medium Jerzees brand shirt and definitely rare. If you see it in a thrift store somewhere grab that shit quick. It's selling faster than the original release of the Rubber Soul.
Thanks a lot for reading or skipping around this far in the blog. The next entries won't be as hectic cause I'll be updating more often hopefully. That means less shirts per read.
Please feel free to leave comments, complaints and all that stuff.
Adios

382

so the past few weeks, i've been slowly re-folding all of my t-shirts
and the final number is 382.
i organized them by color.
here's some pictures of the mess that is my life.

You don't know what I'm all about. Like killing cops and reading T-Shirt Blogs.

I went to the Paint It Black record release weekend this past well....weekend. It was incredible. The new record is really really great. I'm super stoked on it. Those dudes rule so here's a shirt i got. It's an American Apparel size small. I haven't washed it yet but wore it like 3 times i think since i got it. I'm interested in who did the artwork cause it's pretty sweet. That would rule if I could do a shirt for them eventually. If you're reading this...I'll do it for free. hahah...Also...buy the new record "New Lexicon" when it comes out. It's some next level stuff as far as PIB. It seems like every album has been different but great in it's own way. Mainly because of different guitar players or what Yemin is listening to around the time of writing I guess? Either way, this one is different for many reasons. Besides a new guitar player on this album, they got a new drummer, and a totally different approach on the production. It's just as exciting and interesting to me now as it was when paradise came out and i'm just as stoked as I was when CVA came out. Paint it Black has been and will remain one of my favorite hardcore bands and definitely one of my favorite Philly bands ever.



This next shirt was purchased at a Salvation Army. At first gander, I thought it was some new jack "ghetto" shirt that Ecko made or something lame like that. Ecko to me was always silly because it was marketed to black people but only worn by lame white suburban kids who want to be tough guys cause they got a fucking rhino on their shirt. But i looked closer and realized it was actually a brand of firearm or something like that. It's gotta be from the 80's or early 90's. There's no date to confirm either way. I just thought it kind of ruled for the simple fact that someone would think of making this shirt at all. "I'll show you my gun, my uzi weighs a ton, because I'm Public Enemy #1. ONE ONE ONE." That was actually running through my head when i saw it. I thought it was hard. It's a "sneakers" brand size large but fits me like a small.

This shirt is pretty great. We went on a week long tour down south and I kind of forced/begged to stop at South of the Border. Now if you've ever been there, you know that after you walk in one store and take some pictures with a giant monkey or a snail with a party hat on, you've pretty much seen everything South of the Border has to offer. THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE WRONG. I made sure we spent a solid 3 hours walking around there and looking in every single store. Of course only Kev, our guitar player joined me for all of it. We tried on hats, took inappropriate pictures of us and 2 giant cocks, etc. But the ultimate jackpot (besides the cocks) was the "dirty old man's sex shop" where I found this excellent piece of ass. It was probably $8 considering every t shirt they had and pretty much everything they had for sale in ANY store there was from 1997 or earlier. This shirt is a crowd pleaser. It's a K-Studio brand size small. Please enjoy the extra pictures I included of us at South of the Border, where a kid can be a kid.

Folding Session

So I've been folding all of my t shirts so i can re-organize them by color. So far I've folded 4 drawers and one tall hamper's worth. Here's what it looks like so far.
When I'm done, I'll count all of the shirts and see how many I'm up to. I'll estimate around 300 at this point. I still have 3 drawers to go and some dirty laundry so I'll keep updating on that whenever I'm done.
This next shirt is a Lighten Up shirt. It's the second design we got done for us by Horsebites (www.horsebitesdesign.com). He rules a lot and does some great work. So far we've had it printed on white shirts, ash grey, and now a baseball t with blue sleeves. We got 20 made so get 'em while they're holy. Fresh from God's brain to your mouth.
here it is. It's an Anvil brand 100% cotton, size small baseball T.

Migraine, Your graine, Let's call the whole thing off!

This is the last shirt i got in california, the night before we left. I got it at the record store our friends work at. No real explanation, just thought it was cool. It's a size small, Poster pop brand 100% cotton MADE IN THE USA.
_______________________________________________________________

I've been on the look out for an Alfred E. Neuman shirt for a while. Growing up I was a huge fan of Mad Magazine. When I was younger i got a MAD T-shirt from a friend. I actually still have it, but i cut the sleeves off while growing through a "i'm gonna cut the sleeves off of a bunch of t shirts" phase. Anyway, I found this one on Ebay for pretty cheap and had to get it. It's labeled as a medium but fits perfect on me. It's a Hanes 50/50 so what me worry?


In the Ebay store as the Alfred E. Neuman shirt, i found a Buddy Holly shirt from 1987. Its a Top Half brand (By Tropix) 50/50 blend. I was never super into Buddy Holly until i found the Buddy Holly movie in a thrift store years ago. After that i started getting into his music more and I couldn't believe i had slept on it for so long. He pretty much rules, and Gary Busey did a great job in the movie. Gary Busey also did a great job in being the greatest human alive so that's a plus. Wore this the other night to the last Musclebound show ever which means nothing to anyone but me and a few friends, but no one will ever be able to write a song like "who farted?" and make it sound so fucking awesome as the almighty Musclebound. RIP.


________________________________________________________________

Just 2 more shirts to add to the Metallica collection. This is from Ride the Lightning and the back is the same as the Metal Up Your Ass shirt seen a few entries back. I figured I didn't need to repost the picture. Nothing fancy here. Just another reissued Metallica shirt. Delta brand size small. The second Metallica shirt here is a promo shot from Garage Days. Just a picture of the dudes with their guitars. Pretty sweet, nothing fancy. Hanes Heavyweight size small.


________________________________________________________________

This Hendrix shirt was a gift from my dad for Hanukkah. He got it from target. Just a comfortable shirt and actually is pretty cool considering its from Target. It doesn't have that "distressed" look that a lot of t shirts there have. It's just a print in a blue scale type color scheme on a baby blue shirt. It's tagless which is a huge plus and apparently Jimi Hendrix brand, size small. I used to have another hendrix shirt from a thrift store when i was in middle school. It was Jimi on his knees with the guitar on fire. It was pretty fucking cool but one summer, while working at a summer camp, i gave it to one of the kids in my bunk because he always talked about Hendrix. He was like 5 years old so I thought it was pretty cool and he deserved it more than I did. Now I wish i had it hahah.
oh well.

I was told that I write too much of a back story with these so if you're still reading this...THANKS!
This one is a Gildan size small. It's from this band Title Fight from Kingston PA. Go to www.myspace.com/titlefight to listen to them. They're fucking great, they're young and I think they've got a lot going for them and more to come. That sounds like their mother wrote it or something but it's true. These dudes have insane potential. Buy their new record at http://flightplan.bigcartel.com. I drew that picture on that site soooo that's reason enough to check it out! Anywhooo...I went to see the almight Title Fight on Friday at Deep Sleep in Olde City. It ruled and so does this shirt. It has title fight on the front and their dead fish logo thing on the sleeve. I'm a big fan of bands doing long sleeves so i had to get this. seriously though, check out that band and buy their record. Thanks!

PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET FINDS:

#1 - Screeching Weasel shirt Size Small Gildan brand. I've been wanting a weasel shirt but never really went out of my way to get one. While I was t-shirt hunting at the punk rock flea market this weekend, i found this and had to get it. It was $5 and fit perfect. I don't think I own any other shirts this color either so that's a plus. I might have to get more, it kind of looks good on me if i may say so myself.

#2 - Happiness is a German Shepard shirt.
It was just a sweet shirt i found, also cheap. In quality AND price hahah.
It's a tagless baseball t. And this time i don't mean it has a screened tag IN the shirt. I mean the tag was removed. It was pretty comfy when i tried it on and feels nice. Only problem is the sleeves aren't tight like they should be on a baseball t, but i'll deal with it. You can't disagree with the statement so i had to get it!


#3 - 2 LIVE CREW ME SO HORNY
Jerzees brand Size LARGE!!!
I know I don't wear a large but I had to get this. Luckily it's pretty old so it's shrunk quite a bit.
I don't really need an explanation on WHY i would pick this shirt, besides the fact that it fucking rules. All in all, the Punk Rock Flea Market ruled. Also got a skateboard, some weird punk book, and sid and nancy on vhs. thanks for reading my blog. Feel free to leave comments and all that stuff. In fact...please do.
Adios!
