bug-eyed caricatures of the band on the front and "wuh wuh wuh" in pink on the back (which I like to think is the theremin part of "race for the prize" in type)
Got the lyrics for Dulcinea on it, and a rather scene middle-century depiction of a man in armour with a big sword being attacked by bats, but not in a shit way.
that every bastard in the world wears.
I lie, to be honest I'm not sure but it's a toss up between my red Hendrix shirt or my black and white Aphex Twin one I bought from warp.com
and probably unhealthy obsession with band t-shirts.
current top 5 faves:
1. neil young black 2008 tour shirt
2. the replacements, vintage white tour shirt
3. sonic youth orange puppet on green shirt with sleeveprint 'dirty'
4. weezer 'rockin the bitches' orange on brown
5. charles bukowski, white on black.
completely beautiful.
and, worst luck, i've no idea where it came from as it was a 'mates club together' type birthday gift...which hints at expensiveness i suppose..
animal collective one. its purple and theres this big pink crocodile squishing this green fruit (apple?) and all the juice is coming out and tiny crocodiles are dancing in the juice or atleast i think thats what happening.

As seen in my profile pic. The irony is, I actually wanted a blue one but they didn't have any left in my size, and since it was free (their frontman gave it to me because I'm great), I couldn't really say I didn't want one at all, so I took a green one and I was kind of sad, but now it's my favourite t-shirt and I wear it nearly every day!
Merciful Release t-shirt, original head on pentagram design, not the crap updated version. faded to buggery through intense wearing then washing. cotton reduced to the softness of tissure paper through wear and tear.... and my The Cult Electric t-shirt.
...which, with the elongated skull, makes them look like a fuck-off heavy metal band!!
Fave tshirts when I were a lad:
PWEI : Pepsi symbol
Carter the Unstoppable Sex machine: 30 something
Therapy?: Have a nice Day (other side: In Hell!)
And I'm now also rather partial to the Clash tshirt with the skull and crossbones - cannae whack it!
My least favourite one was an Unkle John and Whitelock tshirt which had all these legs in a triangle and looked rather pagan-esque.....but it was given to me after the band split in a birthay present so it gets an airing occasionally to make my friend happy.
an early zutons shirt which is v cool. tho people sometimes think im zorro.
i have a mars volta shirt which was perhaps an unfortunate buy because i cant wear it without people thinking that im a freak or someone who's about to kidnap some kiddies and drive off a cliff with them.
it has the vulture man holding a naked bloke by a knife through his foot with 'The Mars Volta' scribbled underneath it in a font that might as well be wingdings or somehting.
also, i have a rage shirt with che on it, and i get really paranoid that people will be looking at me and judging me just cos its got che on it. stupid che.
'Family Man' is probably my favourite because the drawing is amazing and the number of people it has offended is in the hundreds.
But... I also have an original Bob Dylan/Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tour tee which is white with the most 80s neon graphic ever and features a picture of both artists wih the caption 'alone, together' which is pretty homoerotic.
or my sonic youth one which just says sonic youth on the front with a cross and youth against fascism on the back and has been sewn back together after my old housemate literally tore it off my back.
I had a Suede tour one
with 'See you in the next life' in purple type on the front.
this!!

yellow flaming lips one from 2003
bug-eyed caricatures of the band on the front and "wuh wuh wuh" in pink on the back (which I like to think is the theremin part of "race for the prize" in type)

I used to have the classic Rival Schools Tshirt
in blue and yellow.
I really wanna get it again, but maybe in green.
I always think the 'Pavement ist rad' wizard Tshirt looks cool, too.
Funny you should mention
Rival Schools tees, I was checking them out half an hour ago...they still have a very well stocked merch shop if you google rival school merch
nice
i used to have the 'pavement ist rad' T. Sadly it disintegrated
Isis - Dulcinea
Got the lyrics for Dulcinea on it, and a rather scene middle-century depiction of a man in armour with a big sword being attacked by bats, but not in a shit way.

This one
http://www.flickr.com/photos/bluetypewriter/47701791/in/set-1037555/

Oh and also the Mogwai
"Blur: Are shite" t shirts are legendary and I want one but cant find one anywhere
The Led Zeppelin '1973' one
that every bastard in the world wears.
I lie, to be honest I'm not sure but it's a toss up between my red Hendrix shirt or my black and white Aphex Twin one I bought from warp.com

i had a really great pram tshirt
it was very worn out and so very thin and very comfortable and had a nice design on the front. my ex stole it. ARGH!
I like my..
blue Modern Lovers t-shirt. It's really nice fit too.
anything designed by johnny whitney - his designs are stunning.
or Weezers 'if it's too loud, turn it down'.
I like my weezer one with the dancing girls
drawn by adrian tomine, or my weerez one
i have a long-running
and probably unhealthy obsession with band t-shirts.
current top 5 faves:
1. neil young black 2008 tour shirt
2. the replacements, vintage white tour shirt
3. sonic youth orange puppet on green shirt with sleeveprint 'dirty'
4. weezer 'rockin the bitches' orange on brown
5. charles bukowski, white on black.
this will change by next week.
i am ill.
I would probably
be willing to murder someone for that Replacements shirt.
it is
completely beautiful.
and, worst luck, i've no idea where it came from as it was a 'mates club together' type birthday gift...which hints at expensiveness i suppose..
Sonic Youth 'Washing Machine'

At the moment im fond of my
Limp Wrist- Fags Hate God one
my
animal collective one. its purple and theres this big pink crocodile squishing this green fruit (apple?) and all the juice is coming out and tiny crocodiles are dancing in the juice or atleast i think thats what happening.
http://fat-cat.co.uk/fatcat/release.php?id=141

my Washing Machine shirt
Wrens

Urusei Yatsura
purple with the 'hello tiger' single design.
I'm quite fond of my old
'Sunny Side Up' Pavement shirt, and my Fucking Champs one with some weird guy holding a ball of light.
Anyone mentioned
the black flag police story t-shirt?
Or failing that, my replica iron maiden football shirt, for the sheer bravado of it.
i really like my mastodon oneq
with a friendly looking mastodon on it holding a mastodon flag in its mouth
Sisters Of Mercy
Merciful Release t-shirt, original head on pentagram design, not the crap updated version. faded to buggery through intense wearing then washing. cotton reduced to the softness of tissure paper through wear and tear.... and my The Cult Electric t-shirt.

I really
Really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really crave an X-Ray Spex t shirt.
But
My customized Iggy Pop tee is pretty sweet.
All of my
Pearl Jam t-shirts =D
fave tee
Ipanema - Me Me Me

Manic Street Preachers

My red Viva Voce tshirt...

And a George Orwell quote on the back:
"The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it."
Or my yellow Cursive plane one.
I really want to get hold of a good Mogwai one. And try and get a Husker Du one as well.
i like my Shins one
because it doesn't really say anywhere that its a Shins shirt
http://www.backstreetmerch.com/product.asp?item=shins09
OXXXES ON BOXES
Black Flag
'Family Man' is probably my favourite because the drawing is amazing and the number of people it has offended is in the hundreds.
But... I also have an original Bob Dylan/Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tour tee which is white with the most 80s neon graphic ever and features a picture of both artists wih the caption 'alone, together' which is pretty homoerotic.
my new
Pissed Jeans - Barber Owl tee
I've lost my two favourite band shirts
One was a blue Belle & Sebastian one. There other was a breaks one with the lyrics to Hi How Are You on it :o(
I like my Converge and Rolo Tomassi t-shirts
I also love my Gallows 'Giant Squid' shirt.
either
my x-ray spex tshirt http://shop.fifthcolumnclassics.co.uk/ekmps/shops/fifthcolumn/images/xr001t.jpg
or my sonic youth one which just says sonic youth on the front with a cross and youth against fascism on the back and has been sewn back together after my old housemate literally tore it off my back.
