@Filthy something about long sleeve black band ts are the best!

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Yeah, I was lucky to find that. It came up an etsy suggestion. I wasn't crazy about the price. But it is really awesome.

@Tago:

….

Classic stuff. Now I know what I’m doing later…

[Oroccoco]

A bit more middle of the road (circa early 90s anyway) than some of the craziness on here, but I had fun digging 'em out. These are mostly low-quality bootlegs. Takes me back to simpler times!

@Oroccoco misfits ftw

@Oroccoco Saw the original Stooges several times in a small club called,in NYC, Unganos,as well as three times opening up for the MC5.One of my all time favorite bands.

[Oroccoco]

Thanks @Oaktavia , Filthy's Samhain and Danzig shirts upthread are what prompted me to have a rummage around.

@Jett129 You saw the Stooges opening for MC5?!  ??? That is some serious pedigree.

[Jett129]

I saw Led Zeppelin open up for the Iron Butterfly. I’m fucking old,but I saw all the cool bands. My band opened for the Ramones and Blonde,probably not as cool.

[Oroccoco]

Jeez, now you're taking it up a notch… I'm not ignorant as to a forum open 'secret' am I? Are you actually David Byrne? 

If I'd opened for the Ramones I'd be sitting pretty easy, I bet you've got some stories.

[Jett129]

Definitely not David Byrne. Grew up in NYC,and was playing drums for The Poppees,Sorrows and Wayne County during the Punk/New Wave days. Before that went to the Fillmore East every chance I got.

[Oroccoco]

Congratulations on your contribution to one of the great places/times in music. I'll shut my big mouth now and have a listen to the Poppees.

[Jett129]

[steelworker]

You played for Wayne County And Poppees?  :o Damn! @Jett129 !

[Jett129]

You familiar with either of those? Sorrows was after Wayne went to the UK and The Poppees broke up.

[Oroccoco]

@Jett129 'Cream in my Jeans' has gotta be made the official forum anthem, surely!

I listened to Sorrows Good Times Bad Times on Spotify at work today - love that powerpop sound. Do you think we could get an IH take on the skinny tie?

[Jett129]

Wayne/Jayne wrote that song for Iggy Pop. It’s based off of a Gospel song called I’m Waiting on You Jesus. I think the skinny tie ship has sailed.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

This is the rarest shirt that I have. There's only 1 in existence and was given to me by the drummer of the band!

He expressed dismay in sending it to me after he did. But it is one of my treasures.
