Spent a lovely afternoon sharing some pictures with a few old Pals. We're all getting on a bit so have seen some great Bands over the years. One of my Pals has literally hundreds of treasured concert T-shirts and items of memorabilia. It's been lovely for us all to look them out, see them again and share. I have only a few items by comparison but they mean a lot...










So...What ya got? You'll be glad you got them out and shared! cool

I used to have quite a lot of Stranglers T-shirts and sweatshirts, but nothing from the late 70s as I wasn't into them (or anyone else) back then as I was a bit too young. I recently sold them - a bloke from the USA was offering to buy them and I hadn't worn them for years (and for some of them, never), so I got rid. I've got quite a few posters, I did have some complete shop displays like the ones below but I've recently moved them on. I just got to a point where I've still got the music and still enjoy listening to it, but I don't need the rest of the stuff any more. I've got a lot of foreign pressings of albums and singles, and at some point I'll try to move those on as well, for the same reason.

Bloody hell I've got the MSG Armed and Ready t-shirt at the bottom of a drawer somewhere.
Damned if I can remember where I saw them, pretty sure it was Nottingham Concert Hall but it also could have been Derby Assembly Rooms.

I think I can safely say mine won't fit me now.

I have a load of Steely Dan T Shirts from various concerts in Europe and America. Bought and stored, never worn.

I have made the momentous decision to actually wear them this year. I am not a hoarder, but I do have a habit of collecting things and immediately putting them in drawers never to be seen again.

I also have some Pink Floyd Division Bell merch (T Shirts, baseball caps etc) and a few costly concert programmes. Also the programme from Bob Dylan at Blackbushe in 1978.

Unfortunately I loaned someone my Dudley Moore Trio programme and I can't remember who. I'd love to have that back. frown
