Anyone see anything wacky here?
Oh that’s right. This is a MENTAL shirt. Not really a METAL shirt. And Locking Out? Never heard of em. Lockin Out Records? Dope shit. headwalkathon may want to invest in spell check. Great early Mental tee, by the way …
thecaptainsvintage is throwing up a 90s staple on ebay. There was a time in the 90s where 25 ta life was pretty much the house band at the Tune Inn in new haven CT. It seemed like they played their every other weekend. It was always a good time until they started ruining it for themselves. I think that the turning point was when they started playing “keepin it real” multiple times per set. After that they prety much became a parody of themselves.
Anyone have any Rick TaLife news??
We have had this shirt design up on TTD a few times before and its been a VOD fan favorite. The front looks like Supertouch. xtryxagainx does a bang up job in the item description department. I love “I’am the second owner of the shirt. I recieved it at a show in 1997 when H2O played Deja One. A friends brother traded it to me for an Earth Crisis record while waiting on line in front of the venue. ” Can you think of a more 90s trade?!?
In 1997, I had a terrible skater cut. There wasn’t a big hardcore punk contingent at my high school (mostly my older brother and me, actually) so most of my time was hanging out with the skaters. Granted, most were burner stoners, while I was honor roll nerd. It was an interesting mix. Especially since I sucked at skating, and most of them used their skateboards solely to get to the store to buy cigarettes. At one point, I started hanging with these younger dudes. They were all about hardcore, and helped open my eyes a little further — spirit of youth, I suppose. I rolled over to one of their houses in May of 97, and Ben D buzzed my head in his front yard. No attachment. I then spent the rest of the afternoon hanging and jumping on a trampoline — perfecting my stage dives, obviously. To this day, I’ll never forget Ben’s tshirt. He was rocking this Earth Crisis longsleeve. No, he wasn’t straight edge, but he had passion. Great dude. Shannon RIP.
** loadofhogwash is an appropriate sellername based on the BIN price of this tee. Jeesh. No thanks.
