Wear Metal / Rock Shirts?

ScreaminInTheNight · 02-06-2012, 11:55 PM

I definately still wear rock shirts.Most are vintage from the 80s but if it's a decent tour shirt for current show I'll purchase and wear it.The funniest is when I get people trying to buy the shirt I'm wearing,I've been offered quite a bit for some...if I had a change of shirts I might have been tempted.
I get shirts at the shows also have gotten shirts at 2nd hand shops,online through ebay,ecrater,have even gotten a few off craigslist.

I have one wipers this is real shirt. I ripped the sleaves off it it because it was a medium and too big for me. I also made the length of the shirt smaller but cutting around the whole bottom. I find if you just use a steak knife and then put it in the wash it makes it so all the rough edges crinkle inward and can't even be seen.

Get most of mine from Hot Topic.

Seriously though they have got some cool Ts there, I have got Ts for:

The Descendents, Morrissey, Minor Threat, The Cure, and Foo Fighters.

Also I got a Nirvana T from Walmart of all places!

If you didn't like my response... well listen up:

I got some Ts from Hot Topic for my nephew! From some random scream-o band. He said he liked their logo and that was the only reason! LOL!

Also he wanted some Metallica ones but they were sold out and he only likes the 'Load' and 'Re-Load' albums!!

I believe you. People underestimate Hot Topic based on their clientele. I've actually seen some old school death metal shirts in there. I myself have bought a Lamb of God shirt there, and I've seen a Black Dahlia Murder shirt in there as well (didn't buy it though cause it was a little over the top). Of course they have post-hardcore and emo stuff in there too but what can ya do

I think it's a shame that so many bands have such ugly ****ing shirts. ):

There are some diamonds amongst the rough!

At Hot Topic I have seen Slayer shirts and even Misfits too!!
