    I have two treasured items: a Pink Floyd 1972 tour shirt and a rare Magma sweat shirt, which is blue, with the name Magma in their early font, and the Magma symbol, both in yellow. The Magma I obtained in the mid 70's, but it's way to small for me now, and pretty shop worn. Maybe I'll pin it up on a wall?

    Wow - that is a thing of beauty. I guess the questions are:

    1 - are they exploiting Mike or is any advertisement good?
    2 - are they good shirts?

    The Japanese shop Uniqlo had some time ago a great (and good quality) series of record cover Ts. of Blue Note and ECM records. I like especially the ECMs I found.

    1- Sure, why not. It looks like a tiny garage operation selling on eBay.
    2 - Haven't the foggiest.

    I just received two shirts from an Australian company named Redbubble. GREAT quality t-shirts (heavy-ish Gildan shirts). 10% discount, they were under $20 USD each. I will be the only guy in the grocery store wearing:

    Can Future Days shirts (blue, gold lettering)
    NEU! (black, white lettering, essentially the '75 album)
    If it isn't Krautrock, it's krap.

    Latest acquisition : Captain Beyond -- purchased from the band at their merch table. (Price was irrelevant, support the bands people.)
    Latest retirement : Gong NEARfest -- All shirts are worn until tattered beyond acceptability. It's one of the best ways to meet fellow fans. Then they're used as rags working on Chevys. After a while, then they're used on Fords. ... Replaced w/Camembert Electric t-shirt --- obtained from the Planet Gong website of course...

    These actually sound like constructive purchases. You might even snap some skirt if you enter a hipster store wearing one of those.

    BTW, I just got a full-size Jon A. boilersuit which ZIPs all the way to the top, donning mullet wig on the exterior and featuring a burka-like see-through view effect.

    My Schnellertollermeier shirt has gotten more comments than most any others.
    Many I have purchased are so flimsy they have started unraveling at the sight of the washing machine.

    I managed to avoid buying T-Shirts at RIO due to the cunning plan of all the bands I was interested in not having any shirts or none in my size (Gong, Guapo, a.P.A.t.T., In Love With, Cheer-Accident). My wife thanks you all.

    I guess I need a Belew-era shirt to wear to November's Crimson concert.

    Did the Fest offer one for the festival itself with the logo and all the bands on it?

    Alex bought a festival one with the big X festival logo on the front but no listing on the back, I already have two RIO shirts, including one with every band who ever payed listed on the back, so decided to skip it this year.

    Ha, same here, though I did score a very beautiful Acid Mother Temple shirt that was my size.

    OK, I was wondering if they did one every year with all the bands on it a la NEARFest. Looks like the answer is no.

    The tee that has best survived repeated washings and dryings is the King Crimson Elements tee purchased at the merch desk at the 2014 concert in NYC.No appreciable shrinkage or piling, unlike several other band tees i own.Quality merchandise.
