Red And Yellow Volume 1: For Special Occasions.

morgado / 04/06/2011

First thing in the morning, do you know what I do? I go to the gym, baby. In fact, since this was scheduled for 8am, I’m there right now. Now, the gym means sweating, and sweating means a tank top. I’ve got tons. Some of them started out as tees and were cut down that way, but still. TONS of tank tops for gym wear. There’s a high turn over rate, as sweat eventually equals smell, and there’s one tank that I almost NEVER wear to the gym, because it’s too rare and too precious to me. And that tank top is the Stop And Think tank top, as shown here in this auction from good ol’ reliable icegrillz05.

Like the man says, these are rare as hell (/20). I only even got mine because Spaulding wore his at a show (the first Invasion show I believe), and the straps got ripped in half. I asked him for it, and for some reason despite my being a dick to him 9 times out of 10, he gave it to me rather than just have it repaired. Now, a funny thing happened once I had it sewn back together. I got very paranoid about wearing it and having it get ripped again. So it makes appearances very, very sporadically. It really takes a special occasion, like say… an Invasion gig.

Oh the irony.

Brian,

Jonnycen, you, and myself all need this shirt to complete our collections. This is quite the pickle. I wish the best of luck to the both of you that if it isn’t me, it’s one of you two.

If we were the only 3 people on earth after this item, I’d be psyched. I won’t be bidding on this one, though. I’ve been working on a few friends in an attempt to get theirs. Have at it, dudes. Good luck!

I may need to sell mine if they are going for this much.

I thought the black LS for band members was rarer than the tank tops. But I could be wrong. (I still have that too)

The seller is as mind fucked as we are. I spoke with him via text message earlier. He was equally befuddled.

Clevo, I’ll buy your gold ink longsleeve. I’ll probably pay a ridiculous price, too.
