I spotted that yesterday and I have to say it's by the most hideous one I've seen for a long time.

Dunno. Looks like something
you'd cobbled together on Photoshop.

I sent him a mail telling him to f**k right off, and seeing as I didn't get a mail from him yesterday I think it may've worked

Well "Bollox" to you lot
After the "Bristol" gig in 2003 I, Andy TG, bought the T-Shirt, Long Sleeve T Shirt and Hoodie of this bootleg gear out side the gig. All for 25 quid.
I for one happen to like the Long Sleeve and its printed on "Fruit Of The Loom" which cant be that bad!
I would have bought a Tour shirt but they were way too expensive for the, IMO Crap Designs that VON had deceided on!
Rant Over!

There were loads of them kicking around at last year's Download Festival too. Far from great, but spreading the word regardless.
The red tee I bought outside the HMH in 2003 my fave 'bad' t-shirt. Front is nasty, back is better. But it's a gem
because it's red.

I always bootleg shirts - they were selling good quality ones outside the Blank Canvas for £5, who cares if the font is wrong - for a band who doesn't release product anymore - hows anybody going to know ? I figured I'd been fleeced once for tickets (and beer) I wasn't taking another hit on t-shirt prices. Plus, as somebody else mentioned the official ones looked crap.

The one I got outside Blank Canvas, the print smudged.

it really irritates me (and von too apparently) when dickheeds miss the definitive article from "THE sisters of mercy".journos,bootleggers,promoters both at concert venue level and student "alternative" night photocopied-flyer level:they dont do it to any body else--
"do you like beatles " is not an oft posed quetion outside of entomological circles

actually entomologists probably never ask that of each other,being entomologists and all that...but you get my drift.

That's the least of the problems with this shirt!
