Old t-shirts

[Bob U]

I've got a Springsteen Born in the USA shirt from 85 in mint condition. It was only worn for a couple of minutes before I decided to keep it as new. Funny thing is, it fitted when I bought it so how can something shrink if it has never been washed?
I have a pirate Stones sweat shirt that I bought from a Scouser at Roundhay Park Leeds in 82. It has the Venue and date on it. Very faded now, I wish I had kept it as new.

Hiya

My fave T shirts are mostly The Smiths ones which used to copy the covers from the albums - all sadly resigned to wearing in bed or on a day like today where you pop to the shop to get the paper knowing that you won't bump into the man of your dreams anyway so it won't matter...........but then there is some gorgeous hunk in the q behind you - hate it when that happens!

I have various Le Mans Ts and most CA T's but a sorry end came indeed to my CA SMcQ 2006 T this year - which was my favourite

On the Sunday after the race everybody came back to the Liverpool Boys camp rather wet so I galantly offered my 2006 T to Ian (Peter who got his moustache shaven off's son). Just temporalily until his dried you understand.

Anyhoooo - not soon after the start of the argy bargy with the Ford RS crew started and as Ian was grappled to the ground by the really nasty looking one - he bloomin well tore the neck on it clean off. Damn inconsiderate I think - of the Ford RS guy obviously.

Ah well, what can you do - actually - can't seem to find 2007 at the moment - ewwwww! it must still be in the car!

I've got a gary glitter scarf from 1974!

Mmm maybe I shouldn't have admitted to that.

My Macc Lads T shirt that got me my name is my oldest and most treasured. Bought when I was 15 and still just about wearable for the right occaision. Stained, full of holes and so threadbare its see thru when held up to light. John the Septic saw me wearing it in 04? and said... "that guy looks like pig pen" and it stuck... and has been upheld since. LM shirts going back to '88 (mum still wears the jag polo I bought on my first visit) but most have "shrunk" in proportion to my physical expansion. The Macc T will make a guest appearance next june!
Motorhead "Australia" bought at their Perth gig is a second fave but that is only 2 years old so dont really qualify fo this thread.

Anyone else a Macc Lads fan??

I still have some Therapy? and Osdorp Posse shirts from the early 90's but they are in use now as cleaning tools

Blasphemist!

No Langtall, its clever recycling- its all the rage nowadays Saw Them support U2 once- they are a rather angry bunch of fellows.

There are things to recycle, and things you try your best to keep them as good as possible. Using T?-shirts as cleaning tools is wrong in any way. (I see those guys at least twice a year, but didn't happend this year so far, the tremor is already starting because of lack of Therapy? ! And yes, I like them for being so angry. )

It's got to be Gordons.

Pig Pen- went to see the Macc Lads for my mates 18th many moons ago in Leeds. Thought they were quite good but was always a Half Man Half Biscuit fan myself. Very clever, very funny, very much of a time. Trumpton Riots is a great album, must dig it out.

Half Man Half Biscuit!  Pure class!

Seal Clubbing and Dukla Prague Away Kit are my personal favourites...
