Prolly my Porcupine Tree t-shirt. It has the Recordings album cover on the front. :P

Darn I forgot about my King Crimson shirt. I got a lot of looks with that one.

Also have a red "Aqualung t-shirt which I quite like.

I have an original Roger Waters from the Dark Side of the Moon  tour in Perú signed by Roger with white marker.

That's my favorite.

^yep, had to go for a starless when I saw it was available.

I pulled out my box of retirees.  Shirts I've worn so often they only have a few more wears and washes in them:
Tori Amos '96 tour.
Aquarium Rescue Unit '92 tour, I think.
Tori Amos '94 tour, I think.
The Dregs '88.
Allan Holdsworth '91.
This Side Up Symphony Of The Eclipse.  I think it was 1984.  I know it was around lunchtime and I was at Piedmont Park.
Peter Gabriel Us tour, notable for having the public transportation train break down in the tunnel on the way home.
1982 Jazz Jam at the (long ago defunct now) Moonshadow Saloon.
Metheny '83.
Shadowfax date unknown.  It would have been a tour early on  when they signed to Windham Hill.
King Crimson Thrak.   This one's in good shape but it shrunk too much.
Aquarium Rescue Unit '90.  You just have to love wearing a shirt that says Aquarium Rescue Unit. LOL
King Crimson Discipline tour. 
Steve Morse Band '90.
Talking Heads The Name Of This Band Is.  They were on tour to support the live album I think.
Pat Metheny Group Offramp tour.  Loved the fact that it had a 'TURN LEFT" on the back.
Al DiMeola '82.  He was getting out of his limo and going in to the back of the venue, Symphony Hall as my brother and I were walking up to it.  Didn't get to talk with Al.
Grateful Dead 25 year anniversary tour.  Best looking tie die shirt I've ever seen.
Yes on the Union tour.  Last time I've seen them to date.  Really cool front.
The Dregs '92.
Jean-Luc Ponty '85.
Yet another Dregs '92.  I've told how I have seen this band more often than I will likely see another in my lifetime.
Last a Santana bootleg shirt.  No idea what tour.  It's really old but nice design.  By the way I should mention for anyone in market for really cool band shirts, go to his site.  Cool stuff.

I don't have many, and they are nothing special...just the album art on a black shirt or along those lines.

Guess my favorite is my Agalloch - Marrow of the Spirit shirt just because I bought it at the show.
Album cover on front, on back is "there are no gods here"

all time favourite would have to be the Banshees Israel t-shirt, an antique-gold star of david on a black t-shirt exactly like the one Sioux is wearing in this PR photo:
I wore that from 1980 'til it fell of my back in shreds.
 
Today, the one I wear the most is the distressed retro tubby-bells t-shirt:

My favorite rock t-shirt was one I had in the 70s. It had the Jethro Tull logo from Living in the Past (A silhouette of Ian Anderson playing a flute with one leg raised), and on the back the Braunstein Freres bearded smoking gent in blue (from the packs of Zig-Zag Rolling Papers). I don't even remember where I got it, but  I wore it to shreds. Hearing my sob story, my wife got me one for my birthday:
 
But it still doesn't have the "Zig-Zag Wanderer" (as Captain Beefheart might say):
