Title: Old GNR tshirts for sale again??
Post by: jameslofton29 on December 25, 2005, 06:34:38 PM
My Aunt bought me a GNR shirt for Christmas. It is a UYI shirt with the 'new' cross on the front and the tour dates on the back. I had this shirt many years ago, and I thought they stopped making it back then. I know that Walmart and other stores sell that AFD era shirt, but I have never seen any UYI shirts at these stores. Did anyone else get this shirt brand new, or have you seen it for sell anywhere? When I opened it, I was surprised. I knew it was a shirt, but figured it was that same shirt you see for sale everywhere.

I'm here in Cali, and they dont have that store here. Do they sell bootleg shirts, or are they official? She probably bought it at Walmart or at the mall, but I haven't seen an Illusions era shirt at a store since the good old days. Strange. :confused:

Got me an AFD cross one today---they started reissiung gnr shirts last year with a copyright of 2004 (now 2005) Guns N Roses--it looks like Axl made some type of licensing deal with a merch company to make some extra dough!

Jameslofton,

Yeah, the shirt was my favorite gift today. : ok: I was really surprised. I'm pretty sure you can get the shirt used on Ebay, but I'm still stunned that I have one brand new. Maybe NickNasty is right: Axl signed some deal to reissue the old shirts. If true, I'm gonna keep my eyes open for a GNR Lies shirt. I had that one when I was 13, and would LOVE to get my hands on another one.

The HotTopic Retail Chain was selling a Lies shirt recently-as well as Spencer's Gifts! So they are out there! : ok:

REALLY!! I think there's one of those stores at my local mall. I'll go check it out after this Christmas rush is over. I'll be lucky if they have any left. Maybe thats where my aunt bought the UYI shirt. Did anyone else here get any GNR shirts or other GNR products for Christmas? Maybe Axl is gonna rake in a shitload of money from the past and is gonna reissue everything GNR ever did. Maybe he'll bring back those GNR condoms! :beer: : ok: :love:

My girlfriend is a graphic designer and she made me a 2006 gnr wall calendar with a mix of photos of old and newer band members! It's unbelievably kick-ass and I think alot of people on here would like it-but there might be copyright issues with the photos-I'm looking into it!

Does anyone know where I can get the t-shirt that had a skull on the front with bullets coming through the eye sockets in the skull? I think Axl wears it in the Paradise City Vid.

I haven't seen that shirt in years! I used to have it when I was 13. My dad started wearing it and I never seen it again. :hihi:

I wanted it so bad I bought it off a friend at school for ?5. The sleeves were ripped off and it smelt, but it was ALL MINE! I would lurve to get another copy of that t-shirt, does anyone know what it was called?

Also there was one from the Wembley concerts in 91 that had 'motherfucker' written on the back...I'm sure the parents aquired that one from me!.

Yah-either Gn'R is becoming more popular with the younger crowd these days, or Axl is in need of cash. And I love the AFD shirt I got for X-mas. (Damn lot of abbreviations there!)

I know Bob's stores carry gnr watches and playing crd as well as the roses and pistolslogo shirts. thats where i got my watch (that sadly broke) and shirt. I'd buy more stuff but im not too fond of paying 20 bucks fo a shirt, so Axl will have to stick to a silver jesus hanging in his hose rather than one out of solid gold  ;D
