Good point re shirt fit. We normally just get 'large'. However, at a recent Clapton gig they where selling 'ladies fit' shirts. My wife got one and it really fits / looks loads better that the normal straight concert shirts.
...And personally, I don't care.

As long as any ladies' shirts aren't "one size fits all". Translation: "one size fits kylie Minogue".

I usually get an extra large shirt, as it tends to shrink to a large after the first wash. But then there are shirts that can be any old size because I put them in storage with no plans to wear them.
If I may put forward a slice of personal colostomy...

I wear a good share of my Coop shirts, just some I value more than others and I like to keep those fresh, of course depending on the tour or year I bought them. If I see one I don't have at the flea market, garage sale or used record shop and it's a small or a size I know for sure won't fit me... I'll buy it anyway.

When I'm elderly and begin to shrink, it'll fit. :drink:

And I'd love them to be a wider fit... :rotfl:

Most of them don't fit me well due to my shape, thus I don't buy them.

By the way... I scanned the graphic on the keychain. This same graphic is also available on one of the t-shirts:

Has anyone else seen this before?

Last year I noticed that alot of the t-shirts at the Show at Foxwood's were considerably lower in price than they were 6 days earlier at the Boston show. I remember being mad as I had purchased every shirt that was available in Boston. If my memory is correct some shirts in Boston were $45 and 30 ish at Foxwood's.

Well, I have to have control on the merch part, or I couldn't see as many shows as I tend to. Gotta be some give-and-take. :)

What we do is we have an "Alice" Account. We put $45-50 a week in religiously so when the new tour rolls around we are "refreshed". This is for everything Alice related throughout the year. We have been doing that for about 13 years now.

That is the shirt I bought at the Columbus show. It was 30 bucks. My wife bought that keychain.

It's a really cool shirt but it bugs me how concert t-shirts are made these days. The material is really thin and I can already tell this one won't stand the test of time which means I'll have to wear it less. That's a drag.

Oh cool! Too bad I am totally broke. I'll try to save some money for at least one shirt maybe. I have until December. They all look fabulous!

I agree about a girly tee, it would be nice to have some stuff for us girls too. I love all my Coop tee shirts, but I usually buy them in "XL" size so I can use them as nightgowns in the Summer. :p

I have a Dragontown keychain and the Brutal Planet one too (that one was super cool). I don't use keychains so I sometimes hang them on my bag or jacket.

I have a similar problem, in that I need Tall shirts. I'm long-torsoed, so even if they have a 2XL that I can wear, they usually stop around my navel. And no one wants to see me wear a shirt like that! :) So I almost never buy concert Ts.

Some great shirts there, like the red 'Trash' one and the white on black 'Theatre of Death'

I have also slept in a concert 'T'. :blush:
