Tee
« on: June 18, 2009, 04:38:51 AM »
Ken send me a vintage '81 AC/DC shirt and it fits like a glove! Thanks Ken! I wanted to post this much and much earlier, but I had some troubles with my camera. That's solved now!

As you see I try to get rid of the Doug Fyghter metal image! :)





Thanks Ken! I'll gig in it!!

BTW: The backside reads 'D-Day' so I'll use that another time if I need to bully Uwe.

Man, I almost spitted apple juice over my keyboard!:D Great!

Yeah, make that tee and wear it in Rotterdam once. Or finish the job. I hate Rotterdam.

I think it is a nice city! Glad the Heinkels didn't do a better job. Not one of the Luftwaffe's Meisterleistungen to bomb an already  surrendered city because they had shut off their radio communications while getting ready to bomb.

Do I read a small apology between the lines? ;)

Rotterdam. It's too sauber for me. Too modern. No nice vibe. Amsterdam is much nicer imho.

Make that a big apology!


But you know how our hands were tied, we were surrounded by enemies, Poland had attacked us unprovoked, the oppressive Versailles treaty, the Allies would have employed you as their hub in north-western Europe, this warmonger Churchill did not take our beloved and peace-loving Führer's outstretched hand for a permanent European peace, what can I say, it was nothing personal but a small logistic necessity ...

And in any case you had way too many bikes!  ;)

Chris... glad to have been of service, and remember, it is a deserved treat, after all, it was you that found me wandering in the wilderness...  ;)

Bryan... that Tee is very nearly 27 years old...!

I used to see a lot of bands - at one point I could wear a fresh tee every single day and never wash one for over a year...  :o  :o  :o  :o  :o
I had well over 400 at one point, still have quite a few and intend to sell a few on ebay to fund repairs...

How about a mint 1975 "Welcome to my Nightmare" tour shirt in pale blue with mid length sleeves, size small (mine is short sleeve orange but still wearable, just) but one I won't be selling is my original (worn to death) Motorhead "born to loose" - "live to win" 1977 tour shirt, though I may be tempted to part with my 1979 pale blue promo "Overkill" tee...  ;D

In 1981 I was five, not able to write yet and playing with toy cars and Lego:)

in 1981 I had just quit British Airways (with a years wages in my pocket, tax free) and made a serious attempt to go pro, but not to be...

Bryan... I just eat the greens (veggie...  ;))

Chris... you just live in a land of quasi-leagl "greens" ...  :mrgreen:
