2016 Which T-shirts? Thread

[Woffy]

Impressed you're still curating this thread, Benjamin.

Is this why I'm waiting for my NHS Direct callback?

"I'm sorry. Dr. Ben will be with you momentarily. He's discussing short sleeved sartorial band-realted inelegance right now"

No shame in any of that, Mr Z.

And extra marks for acknowledging that Oasis were not on point that night - luckily many of us saw them when they still were a force.

It's a sad reflection on my level of interest in t-shirts, Woffster. I'm seeing Radiohead in Friday but, quite frankly, this thread is much more important!

And, given that I opened this particular Boîte de Pandora, I feel that I should respond to people who have taken the time to indulge me!

Does it help to clarify in saying that I pretty much only wear t-shirts? On my top half, of course. They make rubbish trousers/pants.

I have one 'smart' shirt - for Coroner's Court, essentially - and one 'casual' shirt...for those incredibly rare occasions when even I can't get away with wearing a t-shirt.

Yes?

No?

I'd hate you to think ill of me, aki...

Ben

I just thought you took a lot of t shirts is all. Thanks for the heads up though, wouldn't want to clash would we?

I will be wearing a tuxedo this year. A different one for each day.

T-shirts are sooo 2007

Superb, my helminthic friend.

Did we establish your situation this year?

Are you in charge up the hill as you should be? Or 'just' a punter?

What's the deal, Monsieur Ver?

Ben

My situation is that I'm neither in charge of anything or a punter. See you there!

Where do you stand on wearing Joy Division T Shirts on New Order day? Is it a bit of a grey area?

Disclaimer - I am not bringing either

I can't really comment as despite this general rule I feel I got out of jail last year on a technicality. This picture was taken last year before heading to see The Family Stone with me wearing a Sly t-shirt. *Technically* I didn't break the rule as he  himself wasn't appearing and the band name wasn't on the t-shirt ;-)

THAT'S the technicality that excused you for dressing like that?!

36 months of continual fucking Greensleeves only for you of all people to drop that bombshell. FML.

Did you buy your ticket off the bloke on the left?

Bruce Springsteen and Frank Turner.  Can't go wrong with them.

I once got my favourite Nick Cave T-shirt stolen out of my tent at another festival….  Thankfully Glastonbury is not bad for theft since the fence.

Well I actually hate dressing up at festivals. I'm really very British about it and get painfully embarrassed. However one of my friends (not pictured) loves it and convinced us to have a 70s theme for seeing The Mothership. I reluctantly obliged only to find that my effort far exceeded everyone else's from our group. My mate on the left somehow forgot the 70s part altogether and ended up looking like Marty McFly.

The Mothership...the British reserve...the fuckwit mate: utterly excused HP!

My mate was gutted when the Foos pulled out last year and he could no longer wear his t-shirt with Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's face on it.

[InDaGreen]

Coachella 2011-2016 lineup shirts, plus my lucky Arcade Fire/Partners in Health one.

[Beerqueen]

This is really the only credible band t-shirt I own (and I admit I stole the idea from my son - I love it).  I will probably take it.

[slash's hat]

Why have I never heard of this don't wear band t-shirt on the band day rule? What is this tomfoolery? 

After last year I shall excercise caution....had sheldon from big bang on a t-shirt but it got mistaken for nigel farage! Nearly got lynched.

I've had one with that on made.

Also one that says "Free Cwtches" and lastly one made that says "Skank Out Or Go Home" in huge letters.

Me of all people???

Yes you, Scruff! You can always be relied upon to point out my fuck ups! ;-)

[hfuhruhurr]

I will be mostly wearing....
Cow/Tall Cow (aka horse) or Badger Bring it (since I'm on a dairy farm)
Anti-Nowhere League "I hate people/and people hate me" as part of my Glastonbury spirit contribution
Stone Roses
Dr Feelgood (probably, although Misfits massive skull might come out)
Rammstein "wahnsinn ist nur eine schmale brücke", because by Sunday I will smell so good

So I'm safe from the shirt/same day issue.

I have quite an irrational hatred of these kind of t-shirts;

 

I'll probably settle for a couple of t-shirts from Glastonburys gone by, maybe me Kate Bush tour one or a Minions one. Got a few shirts that are getting less snug, maybe a couple of those... All depends on how fat I am/am not in a month.

Anything beer related on a t-shirt stirs up similar emotions with me. I don't quite know why.
