What’s the deal with this tee?
It seems like a chill old shirt, but it just smacks of weirdism.
Here’s what the seller says:
I bought this from a guy who claims to have worked as a bouncer in a few clubs for most of the 80’s. I got this on ebay about 7 years ago or so. He was only selling “Road Crew” shirts from major artists (Aerosmith, the Cars, Steve Miller Band, ect) and had this Black Flag shirt in the mix. I believe it’s legit.
Based on this discussion, it seems this was a tee made by a local venue for a particular show. Sort of like a security tee but only useful at ONE gig. That seems terribly wasteful and stupid. Unless Black Flag was rolling all around the country handing these out to venue staff members before every gig.
Anyone have ANY idea on this one? Weird.
I’m sayin not legit. The tag looks kinda satin-ish in the pic like modern day shirts. Old shirt especially those onthe early 80s seemed to always have paper tags that bend and fold and generally get withered away
