I vote Bat for Lashes, (www.bonbiforest.com), it's lovely. What's your favourite band merchandise - tshirts, stickers, other trinkets etc?

hows about...

Tenacious D. Ever fancied a cum rag?


I've got a british sea power mug.

Its brilliant. I use it every day in the morning.


oh yeah

British Sea Power stuff is really nice, I can't remember what they had, but I remember being amazed when they played at that cave in Cornwall.


I had a look on their website the other day

I'm tempted with the pomade


Pop Will Eat Itself

The only band who ever sold more t-shirts than records!!

They had the best band merchandise ever. The range of t-shirts was just beyond belief. I've got Galaxian Patrol 1992, PWEI 'Pepsi Logo', Skateboarder and Ich bin ein Auslander shirts knocking about somewhere.

My Weezer 'van Halen' logo hoody comes a close second.

Oh yes.


Liars

Oven Gloves

My Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Tea Towel is doing well


oven gloves?

missed that one am most jealous :) liars did some good magic fishes for the single 'fins to make us more fish like' a while back too


I had the PWEI/Pepsi t-shirt

"Sample it, loop it, fuck it and eat it."

'Disappeared' in the wash one day. Thanks Mum.


Not the only band...

..although sales data is pretty non existent it's fairly safe to say that Misfits & Kiss are also amongst those who sold more merchandise than records.

And possibly a few more besides...


Liars

Animal Collective

Anyone from New York


nice t-shirts

but £25 is a bit expensive just for a bat for lashes tee in my view.


animal collective

had bugger all at the london show.


Xiu Xiu

have some awesome t-shirts.

I want this:

£25 ??!

FOOTY!!

A Rage Against The Machine football!

Sadly a kickabout in the train station resulted in it going onto the tracks and never being recovered :-(


Hahaha

Fuck you I won't do what you tell me!


low pillowcases

are pretty cool


cribs stuff

is normally quikry and genrally wearable


sonic youth mug

holy molar did a tooth shaped pillow.


:O

OMG. I want that pillow! I <3 Holy Molar.


Supergrass

once did a 'supergrass ironing board cover'. That would be pretty special.


animal collective

tour 2006 bag.it has the most beautiful picture on it.i bought one for my girlfriend and i look at in wonder all the time

the mogwai

music box that plays tracy :) i love it :)


The Enemy Balaclava

.......and ear defenders.


i vote

parenthetical girls badges. they come in 'girls' and 'boys' sets. they're pretty much the most ace thing ever.


franz ferdinand did..

dart flights


this can be perceived as a jag

but I do really like our (This Town Needs Guns) t-shirts. I well want one, but is it still considered a faux pas to wear your own bands t-shirt?

yes that is very nice

but agreed it is very faux pas to ones own t shirt


:-(

that is all


ill buy one tho


Peeping Tom

Hairnet & Binoculars anyone?


I vote

Sigur Ros


Fugazi

because band t-shirts are pointless


Biffy had pillowcases

In pink and blue


mr scruff

i bought my best friend a mr scruff umbrella and it really is the coolest thing ever.

blood brothers t-shirts are generally hot shit as well.


I've seen

an wooden REM tea tray which was pretty damn cool.

Guillemots have their own shoelaces.


mr scruff did

tea towels too and it had instructions on how to make the best cup of tea and he is right the best brew ever!


Metallica

http://store.metallica.com/store/store_summary.asp

Did quite possibly everything you could ever think of with a Metallica logo on it.

Its actually insane...because you really need a lycra Metallica cycling top or boxers or ipod covers or christmas stockings or wrapping paper or flip flops.....


Rolling Stones

icecube tray

in fact Rolling Stones have everything with their name on it at their merch store


Bonde do Role

lasers was a recent favourite, as was the electrelane sew-on navy arm patch...


isis earplugs

i bought at atp.
Crap plugs but a cool souvenir none the less.
For £1 i thought, why not?


Please can somebody....

...send me $45 for this shirt:

http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s117/courtneygarvin/IMG_0002_2-2.jpg

"Bring me the head of Ariel Pink!" Decapitated Pink t-shirt ( for lovers and haters alike)- $45.00 + postage. Made in very limited edition by artist Jason Yates/fast friends inc.

£25...


Does that mean.....

liars

used to have good stuff.

i have sold merchendise for probably more than 200 bands. the worst was the killers.


I used to have a belle and sebastian "&" t-shirt

it's now a bit old and has been annexed by mrs andyk79 as bed wear. They do a good line in merch, B&S do.


truth.

I like their polo necks.


I love Blood Brothers t-shirts

but he does run his own clothing company.
