Default Found a box in storage....

It had some crazy old concert T shirts from the early to mid 90s shows I went to. Only thing is they were in nasty shape.

Does anyone have or know of resources to buy rare, old concert Ts? I searched online but didnt find a lot that had some of not so well known bands I liked.

Id really like to find the old Mad season above shirt again.

Uhh good luck with the Mad Season shirt. I have one hanging in my closet and was offered $300 cash for that and an original signed copy of the CD purchased at a club show.

If you find that shirt for sale let me know because I want one to wear.

www.vintagevantage.com sometimes has really old concert tees in their vintage section. Very highly priced...but if you're a collector, you might strike gold.

If they are sold inside at a stand they are official...if they are bought off some guy at the corner they are probably fakes

The one I have was a small club venue...maybe 100-200 people at best.

I wish I knew that kind of shit back then. I wore it until it was crap and now its bug eaten. I found a guy on ebay that has some but it surely was fake (and only size small).

Im looking though, I have a guy at Bill's records, who specializes in old, rare merch. If he finds it Ill let you know.

PS Im going to the AIC show in dallas and the AIC accoustic show in New Orleans. It obviously wont be the same but oh well. I saw them at palooza but didnt know shit about them. I loved the show but the two times I bought tix after that the shows were cancelled due to herion.

Meh AIC is no longer AIC so I will pass on any new tours.

I'm sorry but when Layne sung he put his life out there and bared his soul to the world, anyone else singing his music is just going through the motions.

Dude, I feel ya on that. That motherFr was bad ass. It was so shitty that the shows got cancelled that I tried to go to. At least I saw Layne sing once. That made them my favorite. I just wish I could have seen AIC when I had experience with their music. Its always better that way. At least I can see Jerry play his shit. Ive played the guitar since I was 12. A bunch of the time I spent learning was with Jerry's stuff, so its still worth it to me.

I have a "vintage" Ghost in the Machine shirt. Though it's a reprint, I think it's
