I like 100 demons. Im not gonna front I like both records. One thing I am not into is rip-off shirts. When someone mentions a ripoff shirt the first thing that pops into my head is the Snapcase-Snapple shirt. ugg, boner killer. Maybe its the native CT dude in me but i love this shirt. There is nothing wrong with any Whalers related shirts!
100 Demons Whalers shirt
DESTROY BABYLON
One of my favorite Bad Brains shirts! Like 10 years ago Standhard got a bunch of these deadstock from some dude and he hooked me up with one! Best dude, I was stoked. It was a bit small but I was psyched to have one. A couple years ago I got one that actually fits for a Xmas present! Great Xmas. I dont know if this is actually a tour shirt but it does have the year on the back and thats pretty fucking cool.
Here is yet another deadstock shirt. Where the fuck is this super stockpile of unworn bad brains shirts?!?
COA – Virginia Is For Lovers Tee
Virginia is for Lovers. I never quite got that. I’ve been to Virginia. I don’t recall anything especially romantic about it. Arlington isn’t filled with love and beauty. It was nice, but it wasn’t romantic like Niagara Falls, which according to a decrepit sign on the way in is “the honeymoon capital of the World.” Yeah, uh huh.
Boston is for Fighters. Possibly, I suppose. I haven’t seen any fights at shows in a few years (which is a GOOD thing). I can see where COA was going with this tee though. Not ironic as much as sardonic.
Big fan of the back print. The spacing and lettering are super tight. And the placement makes me think of MMA/Boxing gear (I’m sure that was the point). Only sold at the United Blood Fest in 2008 (held in Virginia, home of lovers). Good call.
WTF? Seventh Dagger Straight Edge Hood
Is this what Straight Edge looks like? What would Ian say? More importantly (and more relevant), what would Brett Beach say?
I keep assuming I’m misreading this auction or my eyes are playing tricks on me. This is a magic eye print, right? It looks like it says straight edge but in reality is a unicorn pissing on a shark. I think that’s what’s going on here.
If you ever catch me wearing this, kick me in the grill.
