Buzzcocks shirt

Post by Camouk3 »

In 1990 I was working in the warehouse of independent record company and distributor Rough Trade . A guy in the warehouse was wearing a Buzzcocks long sleeve shirt and I asked him where I could get one. He told me he was working on the merch stall for the band and would see what he could do. Jump forward a week and he said that there weren’t any available but had managed to snag me one of Pete Shelley’s personal ones. He threw it to me and said I could have it free of charge! They always say you should buy the item , not the story but in this case I did the reverse 😆 Never seen another but found a picture of the band from the Reading Festival in 1990.

Rough Trade shirt made by one of the warehouse staff prior to the place being placed into receivership
