Have we covered this subject yet here on the Click? Forgive me if we have.
I was doing a little spring cleaning yesterday (I know--it's the middle of winter), and I ran across some of my old t-shirts that I had purchased at various concerts in the past, and some others that I had either bought on Ebay or elsewhere. I discovered I have a fair amount--a few Melissa Etheridge shirts, a couple of Pat Benatar, and even a Joan Jett shirt from several years ago. I don't wear these shirts much-mainly just keep them for sentimental purposes.
What concert t-shirts are in your closet?

Cher and Reba, which I have worn once apiece. But like you said, I keep mine for sentimental purposes.

I still have a Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band shirt from The River tour in 1979-80. Needless to say, I haven't been able to wear it for some time.   |

Might as well mention this one--forgot to the other day. Although technically not a "concert" t-shirt, this shirt holds a lot of memories for my husband and me. Way back when, in 1985 or so, Graham Nash autographed a t-shirt my husband was wearing. It was a white t-shirt, with the "Chevy" logo on the front. I probably told the story before, but my husband and I went to the movies one Sunday, and Graham Nash and a couple of his bodyguards were there as well (Crosby, Stills and Nash were in concert in our town the night before--no, we didn't attend the concert, unfortunately). After the movie, my husband and I stopped Mr. Nash in the parking lot, and asked him to sign a couple of things for us. And the t-shirt was one of the things he signed. So the shirt holds a special place in our hearts (and in our closet. LOL). |

A T shirt from Bowzer's concert that says "Bowzer's Rock & Roll Party" on it.(btw I'm NEVER throwing it away because Bowzer himself autographed it!) ;D One of my friends & my sister joked with me that I should be buried in it! |
