I am so sick and tired of people walking around with Led Zeppelin / Pink Floyd / The Beatles / The Doors / Some Death Metal band T-Shirts!!! (sorry I just had to spit that out!)

ANYWAYS, to change things up at school I want to buy a whole load of cool Prog Rock T's. I currently have a handful of prog t's, but not as many as I'd like. I decided to scour the internet for better luck... Unfortunately, I'm having a really hard time finding them online. I realize that a lot of bands sell them from their websites, but there must be some Prog Clothing database somewhere?

Is there a website anyone is familiar with that regularly has progressive rock t-shirts (and not just Pink Floyd / Beatles).

Thanks!

P.S.

I would love to rock a motW Part the Second shirt. If I can't find one, I'll make it myself.


EDIT: Woops! Just refined my search, and stumbled across this thread: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=49686

To answer your question, you actually answered it yourself, make your own t-shirt!

I still like those shirts, just that every third person at school wears one of the mentioned band t-shirts every day, and probably doesn't even listen to them.

I'll test my luck making some T's!

I've got King Crimson, Yes, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Allan Holdsworth, and even Spock's Beard t-shirts, along with a bunch more, you have to look on different sites but you can find them though. This website surprisingly has a few (Genesis, Gentle Giant, Soft Machine, Allan Holdsworth):  http://www.djtees.com/tshop/store/listCategoriesAndProducts.asp?idCategory=543. You won't find MotW stuff though, for bands like that it's probably only on their website if at all.

I used to have a black shirt that said "Boy Band Reject."  It was my favorite.  Now I can't fit into it...so I guess I really am a boy band reject.

I design my own t'shirts on a website. I now have a King Crimson t'shirt and a Gentle Giant shirt. I also made a KC t'shirt for my brother Tieme his bearthday with the massage on the back:

If I don't get it at the show I usually go to artists web site.  Santana has some really cool ones.  I also got a Yes logo and Genesis Lamb logo cap from a site called cafepress.  Why am I having deja vu with this thread? LOL

It's been a long time since I've been to any shows noteworthy to this site, but I used to always buy my concert souvenir shirts from venders in the parking lots.  Got some great Yes and Tull shirts that way, for good prices.  What do they cost now?  $40?  $50?  With a down payment of a baby's arm holding an apple?  Pinch Now I'm more prone to buying shirts with howling wolves and Indian petroglyphs on them.  Big smile

My son (15 years old) wears my vintage ELP, Yes, Zappa & Floyd shirts that (*sob*) don't fit me any more.
Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

I've always wanted a T-shirt of the Paradox Hotel album cover.  Anyone know if such a shirt exists?

Edit:  Heh.  Just noticed that that's also my sig.  I really like the album cover. Tongue

   I've got some Kayo Dot shirts.One from SxSw last year and one limited edition print sold through the website. A couple of Porcupine Tree shirts from the last two tours as well.My step uncle lives in Poland and got me a cool Out Of Myself Riverside shirt.Quite a few shirts from various post rock/metal bands that I purchased live.Storm of Light,Neurosis,Isis,Cult of Luna,Nadja,Psyopus,Mr.Bungle,etc.I'm quite the merch junkie as you guys can tell. Most bands sell their merch through their Myspace page of if not on tour.

        I don't mind seeing people in the increasingly common Pink Floyd/Beatle/Zep shirts as long as the shirts are original and not purchased from Wal Mart and Target. I tend to see the same generic,10 dollar Wal mart Floyd prints everywhere I go and whats really frustrating is a lot of the people wearing them look like they don't know the first thing about Floyd.Death metal shirts don't bother me unless it's just excessively graphic and then I just think a person is going out of his way to shock people which is pretty lame.

I have a Moog T-shirt; one with Paul and Ringo with the text "drum 'n' bass"; and I used to have a Led Zeppelin one, but now it belongs to my mother (she's got good taste in music).

But I never had a "real" prog rock T-shirt, but I guess I can make it...there's a small shop in my town doing that stuff, I think it's €7/$10 for a picture on your own shirt.
