GB Euro 1991

By jbil | Published 11/25/2010

That last post fromjanvanderdam segways nicely into this post also from janvanderdam. If CIV isnt your thing than maybe later era GB shirts are? I have posted this a halfdozen times at least in the past year so i dont have much more to say about this except that this particular shirt looks HUGE. Its big but not crazy big. I think the fact that its almost a perfect square gives it the illusion of being a tarp! If you win this though. plz dont tailor it. You will look foolish :O

CIV Euro Tour shirt

By jbil | Published 11/25/2010

janvanderdam brings us some Euro goodness. A nice early CIV tour shirt. Im gonna with “nice” on this one. Thats about the extent of this design. It looks nice but its nothing to write home about. Simple and classic but kinda phoned in. I saw CIV a few times during this time period and it was always a good time. Ill be honest though I mostly went to see them for the GB “high hopes” cover”.
Anyone see them on this tour? How was it?

Gorilla Biscuits 89 tour

By jbil | Published 11/16/2010

Ive heard a lot of people hate on this shirt in the past and I never understood why. I love this shirt. I love the design, the jungle drawing, and even the shade of purple used. One day when the stars line up right and I have money and I can find one in my size I will cop. Until then I will post these up for you to peep out. This shirt always reminds me of Uncle Kris who was the driver on the Mental 2004 Euro tour. He would wear this thing often during that time and I always liked it. Again loop88 comes through with a littlee back story on when and where he got this in the auctions description.

… With An Awesome Plan

I’m not sure what Awesome Plan Refused had, but it’s obvious ss5broley has an awesome plan. First, he throws this shirt up for a $10 BIN. Hard to beat that. Then he describes the size as, “It’s printed on a Fruit of the Loom shirt that’s kind of in-between Small and Medium. The label says 14/16 whatever that means. Probably a European thing.” HAHAHAH. LOL. Damn Euros and their 14/16s!!! They probably invented skinny black jeans too (actually, come to think of it, if they didn’t invent it, they probably popularized it 10 years ago …).

Floorpunch Windbreaker

The running joke used to be that “Europe AND Connecticut were 5-6 years behind everyone else.” I can’t vouch for Europe, but I’ve been to many shows in CT. During the late 90s, it seemed like kids in CT still thought it was 1993. So many striped shirts, big beads and jncos. Almost like those japanese ww2 warriors who never heard the war was over.

This jacket brings it back to the late 90s. And oddly, it was only sold in Europe. I’m just not sure how well these would sell currently in the US. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe they’d sell like hotcakes. Granted, anything with the Floorpunch branding sells like hotcakes.

If you don’t live in Europe, and you feel like restarting a trend, I suggest snagging this jacket. You can’t really go wrong with this design. Shout out to CDaily!

Sheer Terror 1992 tour LS

This thing rules! This shirt doesnt pop up too often. Pretty positive with 3 sided print but then all that positivity is cancelled out with the “Goddamn Foreigners” tour name on the back. Not sure if I could wear this even if I want to real bad. That tour was probably pretty killer and brutal.

Justice Road Crew

One of my all time favorite shirts I own! I had one and actually it got lost then this past year Geoff TDT actually hoooked me up with the one from his own personal collection and I am super grateful. Thanks again Geoff. I love Justice! Pre hearing Justice I was a typical USA HC kid and didnt want to give Eurocore a chance. I thought it was all corny. Then I went on a Justice/Mental tour and they blew me away live! From that first song on I was hooked. They had only released the first ep at that time. Then they released the first LP on lockin out. Oh shit. Im still hooked on it. It gets regular weekly play. One of my favorite if not my favorite LP of the 00′s. Such good memories associated with this band. If you live in a cave or have been put off cause they are Euros, give it a spin. You may be surprised.
All I can say about Justice is – Great dudes, Great records and Great Friends!!

GB tour set

Complete your Gorilla Biscuits 1991 Europe tour set! Get this giant poster and the German press of the ep on lp. Really crucial looking poster, would look great in a frame. Too bad about the creases but I think a nice frame would minimize its unsightly seems. Plus youll get the bonus of the Euro 12″ which would also look good in a frame.
