Band branding - fess up time

Loser.

I've never given in to the marketing end of that. Never saw the purpose of running around with a t-shirt or patch or bumpersticker announcing what band you liked.

Me, I ran around with underground comics on my t-shirts.

Although my son got a warning when he wore his Hendrix shirt to the Lutheran school we send him to. Now I'm thinking of buying an Arch Enemy shirt, like this one:

I think the pentagram would be enough though.

Three, because I love your avatar (someone at work came looking for her red stapler just the other day - and she was serious!), I will confess to having a YIELD custom license plate, a Pearl Jam Klausen tiger sticker on the side of my computer, and a framed Klausen poster from the Vic concert hanging in my family room. I also have 6 Pearl Jam T-shirts, which I don't get to wear now that I have a real job.

However, I draw the line at Pearl Jam socks and $55 hoodies. My preference is to spend my music budget on actual music.

Oh, you should. But make sure it is for you, not your son. Then wear it for parent-teacher conference. I'm sure you'll make quite an impression.

They already have quite an impression of me.

We just upgraded my son's cellphone (he rarely uses it to phone anyone). He wanted an iPod, but for a better price we got him a cell with a MP3 player in it.

He was showing it off to his friends at school.

What had he downloaded onto it?

A couple of my Black Sabbath albums.
