I can...I think you might be onto something, Scott. I can't think of too many current artists who have come up with a total aesthetic package, and even when they do (I'm thinking now of The White Stripes) they seem to lack that ethereal whiff of "possibility" - "If you wear this shirt, a little of the Led Zep mystique is sure to rub off on you!"Whisky Prajerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14076228013022881173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-1152018242125969502006-07-04T09:04:00.000-04:002006-07-04T09:04:00.000-04:00I wonder if it's just the shirts themselves -- are...I wonder if it's just the shirts themselves -- are there any bands today that have logos and/or artwork as groovy as that of the ones you named? <BR/><BR/>I like the Ramones quite a bit, for instance, but even if I didn't, that presidential seal logo of theirs looks fantastic on a T-shirt. And there's no shortage of artsy Led Zeppelin T's out there...Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329360007920754967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-1151765131000121482006-07-01T10:45:00.000-04:002006-07-01T10:45:00.000-04:00So is it safe for me to wear my vintage Lynyrd Sky...So is it safe for me to wear my vintage Lynyrd Skynrd T-shirt again, and shout "Free Bird!" again at the end of every concert? :) Actually, you can buy any of them at Hot Topic.

Those blighters won't wear anything you ask them to. It's best to beat 'em to the punch, I think. If my girls are sold on tarty clothes, my neighbors had best brace themselves for a good look at my bellybutton.Whisky Prajerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14076228013022881173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-1151688960954157712006-06-30T13:36:00.000-04:002006-06-30T13:36:00.000-04:00No no - don't blame the parents.

Only one is slave to Zep/Floyd/Rush et al. Another prefers "dance", meaning Daft Punk or Chemical Brothers. One is enamoured of video game music - yup, the chintzy chinkly tunes of Sonic Hedgehog or [Never-quite] Final Fantasy. I've one daughter entranced by System of the Down [which, for the longest time, my old ears heard as "System of the Damned"] and another, save us, who tilts to the Boy Band / American Idol sump.<BR/><BR/>I refuse to take the blame for any of this. My ancient cravings for Zep or AC-DC have been long-suppressed by a beloved who just won't have them on her stereo.Xenoversehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12067895289265719351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-1151685175846577532006-06-30T12:32:00.000-04:002006-06-30T12:32:00.000-04:00Unless the parents are buying the T-shirts...Unless the parents are buying the T-shirts...Trent Reimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11856687416662007848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329706.post-1151679109461390172006-06-30T10:51:00.000-04:002006-06-30T10:51:00.000-04:00Oh, goody!
