Temple of the Dog Rare Long Sleeve 4 Sided Shirt

What can I say? Four sided long sleeve Temple of the Dog shirt, a grunge fans wet dream. I have not seen one of these before and I’ll bet it will be a while before you see one again. jdcomix is parting with this I don’t know why. At least keep it and wear the shirt. The starting bid is high and no free shipping what’s up with that? I just want to make my my girlfriend buy this for me but there is no way I can convince her to. Let us take a look at the sellers description of this masterpiece.

“Up for auction is a rare promotional shirt for the band Temple of The Dog. This fantastic Seattle based band was a collaboration between members of Soundgarden and the newly formed Pearl Jam. Actually the whole project began when Chris Cornell’s former roommate, Andrew Wood died of a drug overdose just as his band, Mother Love Bone celebrated their major label debut. Other members of MLB included, you might know them, Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament. After adding a young prodigy, Mike Mccready on lead guitar, they joined Cornell and Matt Cameron to record the album. Eddie Vedder, who had recently joined Gossard and Ament’s new band, Mookie Blaylock arrived from the beaches of San Diego just in time to sing on the album. Mookie became Pearl Jam and Soundgarden continued. Although their self-titled debut album was a critical success it did not achieve commercial fanfare. After Nirvana and Pearl Jam exploded onto the scene in the Fall of 1991 the album was re-released with success. This shirt is an A&M promotional shirt available only at their re-release party. It was never available in concert they never toured unless you include a brief stint in 1991. You will rarely ever see this shirt for sale. I have only seen another one and it was this one that I bought years ago.Even if you don’t buy the shirt go out and buy the CD. This is one of the greatest albums ever made. These gifted angst-filled musicians managed to rise above a tragedy and produce a blues and rock fueled masterpiece that will forever stand the test of time”.

That last sentence is so true about that album. It is really hard to make a good collaboration Album but I guess everything was working in their favor. Now if I can just the price of this shirt to work in my favor everything will be good.
