What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse
I have like 8 that fit right now, I don't think I've ever had that many at one time. Hooray for reliving my teenage years!

ive just been on a spree.. thanks to my first checking card and a job that pays nicely ive been going overboard on ordering shit from stonerrock.com if i see something like an earth shirt, like i ordered 3 seconds ago and i see that theres only 5 of them... i go completely gay and fanboy and buy it on impulse. im about to do it again as we speak for an Om shirt. i just cant stop.

What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse
Riding in the bus down the boulevard
And the place was pretty packed (Yeah!)
Couldn't find a seat so I had to stand
With the perverts in the back
It was smelling like a locker room
There was junk all over the floor
We're already packed in like sardines
But we're stopping to pick up more, look out
(Chorus)
Another one rides the bus
Another one rides the bus
Another comes on and another comes on
Another one rides the bus
Hey, who's gonna sit by you
Another one rides the bus
There's a suitcase poking me in the ribs
There's an elbow in my ear
There's a smelly old bum standing next to me
Hasn't showered in a year
I think I'm missing a contact lens
I think my wallet's gone
And I think this bus is stopping again
To let a couple more freaks get on look out
(Chorus)
(Weird sound effects)
Another one rides the bus
Another one rides the bus ow
Another one rides the bus hey hey
Another one rides the bus hey-ey-ey-ey
The window doesn't open and the fan is broke
And my face is turning blue (Yeah)
I haven't been in a crowd like this
Since I went to see the Who
Well I should've got off a couple miles ago
But I couldn't get to the door
There isn't any room for me to breathe
And now we're gonna pick up more yeaaah

it brings about a good question though. it boils down to the question of, do people wear them to represent a band that they like/respect enough to adorn something bearing their name? or is it some way to express elitism from a distance to boost ego? i suppose its a bit of both. i think ive been sober for too long.

serves the same purpose as those last.fm sigs (all of the above)

"yeh you should check em out sucka!"

I can never have enough band shirts, however lately I'm really sick of so many black shrits. I should start listening to bands that like to print on coloUred shirts.

I used to wear band shirts, but now I'm too fat. And I don't really like wearing band shirts anymore.
I have to wear decent office attire most every day, so I only end up wearing band t-shirts 2-3 days a week now. The majority of them collect dustin my drawers.

I gave up band shirts a long time ago... As long as I have my demin jacket with a single Bathory patch on the shoulder, I'm happy!

yeah, office shizzz.
I'm always wearing a button up shirt, but I still like my band logo shirts underneath so I can button down and BAM, ROCK N ROLLLLLLLLLLL
I just like people to know what I listen to I suppose, since I do kinda enjoy music and all that..
and then random weirdos can go "strapping young lad, rock on!" or "miles davis! METALLLLLLLLLLL"*
*note: I do not yet have a miles davis shirt but the world is severly lacking in jazz tshirts afaik.

I have about ten or so, most of which don't see any action outside of concerts...responding to the earlier question, definitely more out of respect than flaunting or unpaid advertising (though a compliment on a band shirt never goes unappreciated) in my case.
