METAL SHIRTS!

[iron_thunder]

Ok I looked through the old topics and I couldn't find one like this already, so...

I'm curious-- do you people have/collect t shirts of your favourite bands?
List 'em here!

[Jester]

By far the coolest shirt I have is my Iron Maiden shirt, "Can I Play With Madness". Yep, and it's an original, not a reprint. It has the entire "Seventh Son" World Tour dates on the back from 1988. I got it when I was 13 years old so it doesn't really fit anymore. It hangs in my closet. I will keep that shirt forever because it has high sentimental value, for reasons I won't disclose !

I also have a Stratovarius shirt "Phoenix", another Iron Maiden shirt, this one is a reprint, "The Trooper", a Steve Vai shirt "Passion and Warfare", obviously a reprint since I got it earlier this year at one of his concerts here in Orlando. And an Yngwie Malmsteen shirt that I got at the G3 concert in 2003.

I have a "Marshall Amplification" shirt, and a "Jackson Guitars" shirt. Do shirts about your gear count?

Do shirts about your gear count?

sure, why not? and why not just limit the band tshirts to metal? anything musical!

speaking of which, if anyone finds a Korg shirt, let me know

[htcdude]

The only ones i have are:

Satriani/Vai/Fripp: G3 2005 (1)
Satriani/Vai/Fripp: G3 2005 (2)
DragonForce - Sonic Firestorm 2005 tour
Angra - Temple Of Shadows 2005 tour
Power Quest - Neverworld 2004 tour

I have about 40 other non-metal tshirts too.

[browneyedgirl]

I have 2 great Strato Shirts&a Megadeth one.
My son has a whole collection.
Maybe he will tell which ones he has.

[StratoFactor]

I have the "Eat Metal & Shit Chains!" t-shirt from Stratovarius, Metallicas Ride The Lightning t-shirt and um... I have a US.Armys Special Jacket for Parachutist Group. Canada LA, number 79211.280.0627 F. Official Parachutist Jacket, not bad eh? A little of topic but I had to show of because it's SO cool .

[Shurik]

I once had a Slayer shirt and Iron Maiden shirt, but they are gone now ... I'm not wearing a black shirt (or anything black for that matter) on israeli summer, thats suicide

[StragOvariuS]

Unfornatelly i cant do it because original t-shirts are so much expensive to me...then i buy fake ones...what can i do? 3rd world.

[stratohawk]

For me everything started many years ago with a t-shirt from Offspring with the "Smash"-motive.
Today I've quite a lot shirts from bands. My two favourites are the Phoenix-Shirt of Stratovarius, and the red White Pony-Shirt of Deftones (my Avatar).

[Stratofanius]

I would like to buy Wintersun hood or zip hood but there isn't that... Well, maybe someday they do it and I buy it.

[Dawn_is_Here]

My first metal T-shirt was an Stryper "To Hell with the Devil" one, from 1988.

The ones I still have and keep on wearing are:
- Helloween's The Best The Rest The Rare cover (I have it for about 10 years now and I won't never get rid off it! )
- Rata Blanca's Entre el Cielo y el Infierno cover
- Angra's Fireworks Brazilian Tour
- Helloween's Time of the Oath cover
- Stratovarius' Destiny cover
- Nightwish girlie
- Stratovarius' Firelily girlie
- Kotipelto's Coldness girlie
- Kotipelto's Coldness longsleeve
- Stratovarius' SouthAmerican Tour 2005
- Crypto's girlie (Crypto is a local Metal Bar, the best one in Lima)

I only wear them on weekends (I have to wear "seriously formal" for my boring bank job), on summer every weekend and on winter whenever I go to a gig (too cold to be short-sleeved in regular days).

Rock On!

[Dave]

[Stratolily]

Well, the only metal T- shirt I have is the one I'm wearing in my avatar...
Elements part. I. It was a birthday gift. Guess who did give me that T- shirt...

[Heiserich]

I have a whole collection of metal-shirts and still update them at least once per year when I'm on Graspop. This year I bought the "Soundtrack to your Escape"-Shirt from In Flames.

My first metalshirt ever was Iron Maiden - Ten Years, which I bought in London 14 (!!!) years ago (Boy, I'm growing old...) I still have it, although there's more holes than cotton now...

I'm not wearing a black shirt (or anything black for that matter) on israeli summer, thats suicide

I also got two white metal-shirts, one from Alice in Chains and one from Ayreon. This should be compatible with israeli summer I guess...

[iron_thunder]

Alright, lady. Hand it over; hvymtletc and i will fight over it

[Miguel_Ricardo]

none.. I like wearing shirts rather than t-shirts

[Equinox]

I have 2 Strato shirts from this tour.

And that's about it.

And I'm planning to buy a Angra shirt and Sonata...and Nightwish....perhaps Rhapsody next year.

I once had a Slayer shirt and Iron Maiden shirt, but they are gone now ... I'm not wearing a black shirt (or anything black for that matter) on israeli summer, thats suicide

'cause the shirts are black (dead on isralic summers) or other people would kill you?

I only wear them on weekends (I have to wear "seriously formal" for my boring bank job)

you're working in bank in south america? I work too in a bank but in switzerland
any serious shirts you can wear in the bank but not in front of the clients and I don't think about a slayer-shirt

I have any shirts of stratovarius, nightwish and sonata arctica (they have everytime beautiful merchandises!) and only one of primal fear, within temptation and ac/dc (was my first shirt and too expensive because I have bought it on the concert - never I'll do it again!).[/quote]

Yeah, I've been working in the financial market for 9 years now. I'm not in touch with clients (I work in auditing and risk consulting), so I don't have to be strictly formally dressed, but we are forbidden to wear t-shirts, not even on fridays casual days .

@iron_thunder: I'm sorry Clare, that Stryper T-shirt didn't make it . When it looked too old to wear it in public, it turned into my pijamas , and after that, I think it got lost when I moved out from my parents house, many years ago.

I forgot to mention a Metallica's Black Album 1991 Tour shirt, which I still wear as pijamas up to now .

Rock On!
