Just thought I'd throw this question out there. Do you have any? If so, how much and what is your favourite?
Back in '94, I bought 2 T-shirts on the Voodoo Lounge tour. One was black with the VL album cover on the front with the tour dates on the back. The other shirt was a white T-shirt with a caricature of Mick on the front and caricatures of Keith, Ronnie and Charlie playing their instruments on the back. It was a very cool shirt. Nice artwork on it. I also had a shirt that said something along the lines of STONES WITHSTAND RIP-OFFS, SLAGGING, DIVORCE - MADE IN ENGLAND, 50% ROCK AND 50% ROLL. Sadly, these shirts have fallen by the wayside due to aging and constant washing. Nowadays, I just have a black T-shirt with the tongue logo on it.
I have a pair of those flannel men's PJ bottoms with the tongue logo on it that Target is selling. I love those.
My two favorite were my old "Patience please..." and "Who the @#$%& is Mick Jagger" t shirts, but those are so old, and I don't wear tshirts anymore anyway. I also used to get in trouble at school for wearing my jeans with the tongue logo patch on my ass pocket. Ah, the good ol days when things were bad.
Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.
I have a few T-shirts...But I do not particularly like the "tongue" logo. I think I saw some other people post on this board that they would not wear articles of clothing with tongues on them. I do not have the "Some Girls" T -shirt, but would like to have it. I have made some with "Gimme Shelter" on them and in small print have Jagger/Richard(s) under the words (copyright stuff, you know) Stones89: Those ol' washed out shirts sound cool. I always like to see what people wear to the concerts..some neat stuff Yeah, well that's it.

There was a girl at the opening night show at Fenway, who had a black tshirt on, with just a small b/w picture of Keith from say, 77/78. And on the back she had spelled out in masking tape "Paint it black, you devils". I thought that was pretty excellent.

my latest additions are a couple of the dragonfly button-down shirts - got the Keith TIC and the MITS ones (already had the tongues one)....be a-sportin' those at a Stones show near you soon....

StonesTod..I surely wish you would be a-sportin them-there shirts in Pittsburgh!
CindyC....That does sound pretty neat..the black T-shirt thing I am especially amazed at what those "old people" wear ...oh, wait....they are probably younger than I am!!!!!

Hey - you got an extra ticket, round trip plane fare from SFO, overnight accommodations and 3 squares a day and enuff booze to choke an ox - AND I AM SO THERE!
StonesTod, Well, Uhm...I have an extra ticket..on the Floor..haven't put it on eBay If you started now, you could drive, but I could not afford gas money! Is Smirnoff's ok?? You would have to learn to speak "Pittsburgese" or you would not be able to navigate around "tahn" (I do not live there anymore, never quite got the hang of Pittsburghese, if y'uns know what I mean) REGARDS! Gotta go! Have a GREAT WEEK-END~
As a little kid, I was standing on the street in LA in 1964, watching a teenage girl stroll down the sidewalk with a sweater that read 'I Like The Rolling Stones.' It featured their 5 moppy heads under that heading.
If she kept that article of clothing in pristine condition, wow, what would that be worth today?
I've got 3 shirts: Black w/ a white picture of Keith in the top center with the words "Keith '73," Black w/ the A Bigger Bang cover art on the front and tour dates on the back, and Blue w/ a yellow "Keith Richards for President" logo.
Have a great Stones jacket/windbreaker thingy I bought in Edinburgh. I know they don't sell it anymore & have had offers to buy it (ok, I'm finally ready to sell it if someone REALLY wants it & REALLY loves it...hardcore fans only...no stores looking to resell).
I still think the Staples center t-shirt is the BEST rnr' shirt made...it's just tough & awesome.
I did just pick up the Shepherds Bush T-shirt....finally. I never thought it was great looking...but I was there...so I gotta have it...& the touts took every pence I had (still only paid $510...not terrible...last ticket on the street). Also, have the UK 99' shirt & the Holland 02'. I have seen some rather rare ones (Winterland), but let's face it...many just aren't that hot. Even though Staples isn't that hard to find...still just an amazing rnr' shirt...or so says my humble opinion.
Tussler, -On why I don't like the tongue logo...I have been a Stones fan fan since my teenage years in the 60s and several years before the tongue...I don't know, just never liked it. I KNOW IT IS THE STONES, THOUGH..CAN'T DENY IT.
