Wanna show us some, give us some pics.
Please share the images of some of your tshirts with us.
I'll gladly pick up one for you on the next tour Rockeee, but this one wouldn't have fit you. The guys only had an XL left, which is one of the reasons I tossed it to the sisters. I was kind of sorry I gave it away, as it would have made a nice pajama shirt, but what the heck.
The least I can do for all the cool stuff you post here. Send me your T size and let me know what style you want...I'm takin orders.
...and here I thought we were having such a nice conversation...HAAAAAA!
OK, but you're pushing your luck, good thing for you I'm still laughing...I'll think of a snappy comeback later.
Very amusing indeed. Thanks
and cheers

What do you think of bootleg shirts vs official concert tshirts. Myself I have seen some neat designs on their last tour sold at bars that outdo their official ones. Tell me your experiences..

Never liked any i ever saw..Looked very cheap when
compared to the real thing.
Plus they were only about $10.00 less then the real deal at the concert.. Not worth it.

The trouble with Stones shirts--whether bootleg or official--is that they are mostly all the same, just that tongue logo. It would be great to see T-shirts displaying classic album covers--front and back. How cool would it be to have a T-shirt with a nice big image of Between The Buttons across the front, or Hot Rocks, or Tattoo You, so fans could have the option of wearing their favorite Stones era on their sleeve. I personally don't care for that tongue logo myself, and this is why I have never once bought a Stones T-shirt even though I've been a fan for over 30 years. That one-size-fits-all tongue logo reminds me too much of a corporate brand, and like the golden arches of McDonalds it seems at this late stage cliched and unimaginative.
I will not buy a Stones T-shirt unless I see this image on the front:

I would also like a T-shirt with this image on the front:

At any major concert in Mexico they have a veritable market outside the venue with (in the Stones´case) literally hundreds of stalls selling bootleg tshirts, hoodies, keyrings, posters, shot glasses....
all of which are very cheap, and a lot of which look cooler than the official merch, and usually tailored to the event ´Los Rolin Eston´, Mexican flags etc

I often prefer boot shirts because they aren't as slick, seem more "rock and roll" and are obviously cheaper. I went to Bob Seger last week. Spent $35 in the show for a very cool shirt and another $10 outside for one I liked just as much.

An amusing story from last November's Barclay Center Stones show.
The ticket cost me $500 + airfare so I was damned if I was going to spend another $40 on my umpteenth Stones shirt. After the show my buddy Tim (a seasoned New Yorker) and I were walking back to the subway when a guy popped up selling boot shirts proclaiming, "Show shirts just $20 - they're $40 inside!" I asked to see an XL and he handed it to me. As I began to hold up to myself, to see if it would fit, two plain clothes cops appeared out of nowhere, grabbed the guy, handcuffed him and told him he was being charged with some 'New York state anti-counterfeiting statute, yada yada.' I was standing there, jaw agape, holding the shirt up to myself, when Tim leaned over and whispered, "Keep walking." So we did. The cops didn't notice or didn't care and I walked away with a damned nice shirt. Of course it sports Gregory the Grrrilla so my wife refuses to let me wear it out of the house - but the price was right.

I bought one from the merchandise truck after the 2nd Prudential show for the full $40 and then picked up a boot shirt after the show for $10, but I ended up giving it away. I bought it from some guys in the pub across the street from the Pru, where I ended up talking with these two sisters who had driven up from North Carolina to see the Stones. They had gotten a credit card just for the trip, which they had lost twice, and one of them had lost her drivers license along the way. They kept me at the bar for a while telling me stories, knocking drinks over and arguing over how they were going to get back to their hotel. Anyhow, it was their first Stones concert ever, they didn't have much money and, truthfully, didn't seem to have much sense either, but they were so happy to be there. So, I bought the shirt, promptly gave it to the southern sisters, and made a quick exit.

Just arrived in the mail. I like these baseball shirts. My house is always a little chilly for my chow. So the 3/4 sleeve is nice.
