The Stones' concerts in the Melbourne area (Friday at Rod Laver, Sunday at Hanging Rock) co-incide with the annual Melbourne Comedy Festival. There are, quite literally, thousands of comedy gigs around the City during the Festival (26th March - 20th April). Some of the gigs are in huge theatres, others are in tiny rooms in pubs. And everything in between. Some are a lot of money to get

Quotefrenki09 And it's probably too much to ask, but could someone measure the T-shirt he bought? Length = back collar to bottom hem of shirt Width = armpit to armpit across front of shirt. In Asia sizes tend to be different. Large might mean a smaller size than in a Western country. Again, I just wanna make sure I don't waste too much time when I'm finally there at the venue.

I am unable to accept the basic premise of the thread title. "Beatles v Stones". Why is it always one against the other. I prefer to think of them as..

Quotestonehearted 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 thei
