What was your first band t-shirt

[DLR Bridge]

I had to read up on that because I wasn't aware of the 4 Kiss solo albums that came out in 78. If you google Kiss solo albums it looks like there was 5 solo albums because there's a picture of Eric Carr drawn in the same style there too.

Ha! I thought you were pulling my leg. Yes, Ace Frehley. I think I still have the actual shirt. Hoarding shit from your youth gets tough as you get older. The more you think about how you can't take any of this shit with you when you go, the easier it becomes to sell, chuck or give shit away.

My 1st 2 t-shirts were ordered from a dodgy advert in "Sounds" magazine. AC/DC Highway to Hell shirt, and the classic VH logo shirt. £3.35 each plus p+p. Arrived in the post from U S of A 10 days later, a full month before my 1st concert. VH Glasgow Apollo 18th June 1980. Bought the VH one especially for my big day. Wore it with pride for a full week when i got it, then thought i'm going to get this washed and put away so i can wear it to the gig. Needless to say after that 1st wash, my 4 year old sister had a new t-shirt to wear and i never got to wear it ever again. And the band arrived in Glasgow so late that there was no merchandise available at the gig AC/DC one went the same way.

Kiss and I can't remember how old I was. Maybe 9. Odd that my holy roller mom would let me have a Kiss shirt but she didn't mind at all. Even bought me the comic book printed with Kiss Blood!!

I'm what you'd call an anti hoarder. I only have one trunk full of stuff that I don't use on a regular basis. When I decided to sell my house in 2006 I gave away almost everything I owned. A few months later I gave away the rest of it. The only things I have other that the stuff in the trunk is this computer, my car, my dog and some clothes. I have one pair of steel toed boots and one pair of tennis shoes. I rarely buy anything but food. I only buy clothes if I absolutely need them. When I kick the bucket there won't be much crap left behind.
