I'm with the band

The few remaining band t-shirts in my possession. I was convinced I owned a 1993 Charlatans shirt and a PWEI one too, but can't find them.

Curve: Doppelgänger

Alfie. Lovely first album. Never heard from again.

Very Britpop Charlatans shirt

The Wedding Present, c. 2004. I always liked the 'My girlfriend's from further North than yours' shirt.

Attila the Stockbroker. Punk poet who when I saw him was waxing nostalgic about East Germany - a step too far even for me.

Here's his fantastic poem 'A Bang and a Wimpy' from the late 1970s.


Gorky's Zygotic Mynci

Melt Banana!

The Nightingales. Or 'my colleague Alan and his disreputable mates' as I think of them.

Any chance of you selling the Alfie T-shirt?

If you tell me why you REALLY want it, it's yours for the price of postage.

I have been searching for a melt banana shirt i liked for so damn long, everytime I go see them the shirts are just not aesthetically pleasing enough to be in lock-step with my plans to wear the shirt til it rots off me. Are you selling that one? And if that question is stupid, where did you get it so I can track down my own?

Please please PLEASE sell me that curve shirt if it's an XL or L :( I would pay you well for it!

I'm sorry Glenn. If I'd bought the Curve shirt myself then I'd have given it to you, no money needed. But it was a treasured present.

That's extremely nice of you, but I definitely understand! Cherish it forever!
