Lunch 03-11-2006 11:40 PM

I have that Who shirt, but I can't wear it without feeling like a complete tool. So I hardly ever do.

rockinbass17 03-11-2006 11:44 PM

I have that Who shirt.

I would love to be in a bluesy jam band, or a funk band that does alot of jamming.

Ephemeral 03-11-2006 11:49 PM

I have a Who shirt with the Target thing. I don't really like the material it is made out of too much though.

Why does it make you feel like a tool?

:(

Great, now I can't wear that shirt without being constantly reminded that Lunch thinks I'm a complete tool for it. It's like The Game or something.

EDIT: Happy 2,400 posts for me :chug:

Party in the CR thread :D :smoke: :annoyingsmilie#3:

I just thought about what I posted and realized it sounded like I was shooting you down. I think the design is awesome and it's a cool shirt, you should wear it with pride.

[QUOTE]Why does it make you feel like a tool?[/QUOTE]
It's just a thing with me about the whole "Hot Topic" popularity that I could never really get over. I'm not saying I'm like "OMG poseurs are gay!", but I just don't like wearing those shirts.

rockinbass17 03-11-2006 11:57 PM

I didn't get mine at Hot Topic. I'm proud to say I've never been in there, ever. I don't pay $30+ for casual clothing.

[QUOTE=BigTrav415]Oh. My. God. Why God, Why didn't they have this shirt there? :( :(

My cousin has that shirt.

I don't run into "posers" at my school anymore, but on the topic of shirts, the other day, me and two other kids I jam with were all wearing the same Jim Morrison shirt (see avatar).

I thought that was pretty funny :D

[QUOTE=rockinbass17]I didn't get mine at Hot Topic. I'm proud to say I've never been in there, ever. I don't pay $30+ for casual clothing.[/QUOTE]

I bought it for like $15 or something.

Leper 03-12-2006 12:01 AM

Hmm fair enough. I, on the other hand, love finding a unique band shirt and wearing it often. Maybe that's because we don't have a Hot Topic where I live.

rockinbass17 03-12-2006 12:02 AM

I hear they overcharge, kids I know say they've spent immense amount of money in there. And I buy my shirts for like, six dollars.

[QUOTE=rockinbass17]I didn't get mine at Hot Topic. I'm proud to say I've never been in there, ever. I don't pay $30+ for casual clothing.[/QUOTE]
I don't either, $19.25 including tax per shirt :) That's actually pretty cheap for anywhere you buy clothes. Any non-band shirts I have though are usually bought on clearance, sale, discount, or general cheapness. I'm a cheap guy usually, unless I really like something, like said shirts and Burnout Revenge. Today may have been one of the first times I have ever walked out of a mall with more than one bag.

I don't like Hot Topic's whole image either, but you can't deny that, exempting 9/10ths of the store, it has some awesome stuff. It took me a tiny bit to get over that though. The tiny bit was this:

Idiot: Hey, where did you get that awesome Pink Floyd shirt?
Me: Hot Topic.
Idiot: Haha!
Me: *punches Idiot in stomach*

Lunch 03-12-2006 12:03 AM

I've only seen a couple other people with that Who shirt, but it feels so fake and artificial, everything the Who shouldn't represent. Then again, it's just a t-shirt so it's not really a big deal.

I actually think it's a lot more representative of The Who than the bullseye logo one. That seems like the kind of shirt that you see on pretentious preteen girls two sizes too small to look trendy and fashionable while maintaining the horribly delusional mindset that they are original, all the while thinking The Who is a new clothing brand.

We're really reading a lot into these stupid shirts, aren't we? I guess I can still sleep on the idea that Pete Townshend just recieved a small royalty from me though.

Lunch 03-12-2006 12:11 AM

Considering how big the Who were into fashion in the mid-60's (or how big fashion was into the Who), it's hard not to appreciate the target logo. Mod in it's classic form all over.

BigTrav415 03-12-2006 12:15 AM

Ok, you win you da[font="Verdana"]mn[/font] Who fanboy :-*

I think it'd be awesome to dress up as a mod with some friends one random day at school.

Caesar haircuts FTW

Lunch 03-12-2006 12:16 AM

Mods were the metrosexuals of their time. Except with a little more balls.

Leper 03-12-2006 12:16 AM

Meh I think the target logo is way over-done. Just like the Rolling Stones tongue logo. If I could ever find a Stones shirt without that logo I would be a very happy man.

BigTrav415 03-12-2006 12:20 AM

[QUOTE=Lunch]Mods were the metrosexuals of their time. Except with a little more balls.[/QUOTE]
But to do a tribute to them would be different than dressing all homo nowadays, amirite?

iamrite

Go suck a Daltrey or something, Munch. You're ruining my once-perfect day :(

Lunch 03-12-2006 12:24 AM

They didn't really dress like homos, they just spent all their money on new clothes every week.

So yes, it would be different. Plus you would get to ride around in a scooter, and maybe even start some riots.

PinkFreud 03-12-2006 12:41 AM

They spent their money on drugs too. Don't forget the drugs.

I'm downloading the Deep Purple album that's live with an orchestra. I'm anticipating great things.

I was literally just thinking about that album a second ago, and how much I've wanted to hear it. Upload it if you have the time please :) I don't mess around with all that rapidshare fooey if I can help it.

Don't forget to take a lot of amphetamines. And then stutter a lot from all the drugs. And then you have "My Generation".

Glitterati 03-12-2006 01:24 AM

That's an awesome Who shirt, Trav.

I picked up Alice Cooper's new album today, it's really good.

I have that DP album on vinyl. Its pretty good, not exactly what I had in mind. It was too much "okay the orchestra's playing for like 6 minutes, holy crap hear comes Deep Purple for like 2 minutes, overpowering everything....then 5 more minutes of orchestra." It wasn't intertwined very well, something I really liked about Metallica's SnM.

The only shirt I have is my John Lennon shirt, and I bought that at the Rock n Fricken Roll Hall of Fame! Talk about ultimate!

Yea, "leapers" if you will.

MidnightRider 03-12-2006 09:19 AM

The only band shirts I have are Floyd and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Freud, you should send out that DP, sounds cool.

Lunch 03-12-2006 10:18 AM

I'm listening to this band called the Cosmic Jokers from that 8 Days in April blog, they are awesome. Great kraut/prog/space/psych rock. Some parts are alittle off or annoying (as with most music from a similar genre I've heard), but other parts are great, very spacey and psychedelic.

[QUOTE=Seafroggys]The only shirt I have is my John Lennon shirt, and I bought that at the Rock n Fricken Roll Hall of Fame! Talk about ultimate![/QUOTE]

As a rule, I don't usually buy band shirts unless I got one at a concert, but if I see a cool one then I sometimes buy it.

I've always wanted to hear that DP album, its a shame Seafroggys says its not too good though. I really want to get the live album Yes made with an Orchestra a few years ago, its supposed to be great.

TheDMV 03-12-2006 11:42 AM

Hey, Guys! :wave:

I'm going to see Billy Joel tomorrow! :euphoria:




I have about 5 Jimi shirts, but I just can't bring myself ot wear them anymore. My Who shirt is real comfortable, so I like wearing that. Then I have Floyd, and GD.
