Tee Till Death

Here is a common AF shirt printed by blue grape in the early/mid 90s. Unfortunatly many old Blue Grape shirts were printed as heat transfers which have a habit of turning yellow with time. The graphic itself is pretty sizeable but then again the shirt is an early/mid 90s XL so its probably a tent. Have fun buying this or cheap though.

This shirt seems to always be popping up now. This is like the 3rd time this shirt has been up on TTD. Im into it. I love the fact that it looks like a total bootleg even though it is legit. The original Taggart art rules but that fucked up demon skin on this shirt speaks to me. Bonus points for the tour date on the back. Biid on this and look like me

Pretty sure this is not an official AF shirt. Obviously not an orginal VIP shirt in anyways. I think these were some St Marks shirt shop bootleg shirts. Still cool. I have one and mine is printed on a Screen Stars shirt. No Mention of that in the sellers description though.
To me VIP is the Definition of NYHC! sorry AOQ but youre a super close second

I think Justice was either a band you loved or just never paid attention to. You never hear anyone say, “oh man, I HATE Justice.” You just don’t hear that.

Not sure how they progressed from those first EPs to that LP, but I can still dig it. I’m not a superfan, but I enjoy the tunes.

First up, this tee is described by the seller as looking “like a cro mags design.” Not sure what that even means, really. If anything, I would assume he meant Agnostic Front and Sean Taggart work. But again, I have no idea. It’s pretty creepy looking though. Is that Jabba The Hutt?

This design is a little more future forward. Where the previous tee shouted out the mid 80s style, this tee points towards the future. I’m not sure of the year because I’m still Xstuck in the pastX (see what I did there? Shout outs to that whole crew. Chip, where them mid 90s tees at?).

Lets continue with the AF posts! This is hands down without a doubt my favorite AF shirt!!! I Love everything about it. The Taggart art, the colorway, fucking everything. Sooooo good. I have one but it is sooooo shredded. Not much better condition than this one. Mine has sleeves but is paper thin and has tons of tiny holes all through the graphic. Such a bumout as I want to wear it everyday. I have bee searching for a decent priced one forever. One day it will be mine. This seller is highly optimistic with that BIN price

Its funny before I got this shirt I had never seen it before. Since then I have seen no less than three. I love the bootleg Taggart art. Honestly I back any sort of Skinhead Demon art! Especially ones with bloody sledgehammers smashing judges and cops. So cool. Plus it gets bonuses for having the tour date on the back! I got my shirt while visiting a friends house. I was looking through his shirts and was so stoked on it he just gave it to me for free. I dont let random acts of kindness go unpayed so later when I found out he liked a Madball 1993 tour hoodie I had I gave it to him. Good trade for a Good dude. Shoot out to Senta.

You know you secretly like jerseys. Here is your pr0n.

Jim C is a long time friend of ours who also plays guitar in soul control. rihc_auctions sells his own stuff and the stuff from fellow RI core dudes with no time on their hands.

1. How did you get started in the punk/ hardcore scene?

took the wrong bus on a high school field trip and sat with some dudes I didn’t know. we hit it off and continued to hang after that trip and they were into bands like pantera and rollins and stuff. couple of them were into some hardcore bands and they’d go to shows here and there. eventually i went with them to a sam black church/black train jack show and I thought it was the best thing ever. the next week we went and saw madball at club babyhead and that got me totally hooked. after that i went to as many shows as i could get to.

2. How did you amass all these amazing tees?

bought em all at gigs. i’ve never been much of an online purchaser of shirts. i’m also selling a lot of shirts for tom z and eric from verse, who knows where they got theirs.

3. What’s the strongest memory attached to one of these shirts (like a great show, or a funny merch table discussion)?

i actually told this story in one of the AF auctions I have up now, i’ll cut and paste: agnostic front jersey from 1996. this was bought on the reunion tour in 96 at the mid east in boston. also on the bill were 454 big block and 25 ta life. this was one of the scariest shows I ever attended. the pit during AF that day was ruled by Minus, former singer of merauder. no lie, he was moshing in nothing but a pair of tighty whiteys. he was murdering people. life WAS pain for a lot of dudes that night. also during the set, boston mike (rip) was perched on a railing just staring at the pit with a look on his face that words cannot describe. he then started jumping up and down on the railing in anticipation of a mosh part, bending the railing, and proceeded to leap from the railing and clear out at least 45 dudes from the pit. the rest of the set was him and minus just controlling the pit while AF ripped through an awesome set. after the set I bought this jersey from AF and a hatebreed under the knife demo from rick ta life.

Here is a little gem ending in a few hours. An original AF flyer.

Go get it.

Here is your chance to get an original Agnostic Front skinhead shirt from 1985. This thing is trashed, but it would be a cool addition to your collection. Hell it’s better than the one you have already. Unless you’re cooch, but you’re not.
