I actually don't want one because I doubt it'd fit me (or my pot belly anyway), but this is rather a nice gesture. Maybe needs some Fred bracketology to decide the winner.

Don't count me though--no way in hell they'd fit

I flew over to see them play in the warehouse project in manchester in 2006, and 2 minutes before they started their set I went off to take a piss....the queues for the prefab toilets were a mile long, so i snook in to an alcove where i thought no one could see me....when i came out afterwards the security guards grabbed me and turfed me out. I begged and grovelled and pleaded with the police outside to let me back in, but no dice. So i walked around outside the front and saw some fences with thorns and bushes behind them, pulled myself up and over and landed right in the thick of the bushes. I thought to myself "surely there must be a way in behind all of this", so i forced my way through pure thorns and jagged branches for about 70ft, only to reach a dead end. Which meant i had to turn around and do it all again. I managed to get back over the fence finally and headed around the back of the venue. I'm not gonna lie, i was almost in tears at this stage. I had been up since three in the morning, had been drinking for about 10 hours, had waited until 2 o' fucking clock to see AE, and then this had to happen!

 

The road beside the venue sloped up and around to the back, so i ran up and hopped over this wall and squeezed through barbed wire (no lie) and rusty fencing to get some footing on a ledge below. My clothes were torn to shreds by this stage. The drop under it was about 15 to 20 foot. I managed to shimmy along it like a crab as it sloped down to the back of the venue. The venue was a disused ale factory, so there was all sorts of machinery and distillation equipment crammed up against the back wall, so I monkeyed over all of this and land on the roof of the prefab toilets. I shouted to down to a lad and he helped me down, and then i ran like the jackhammers back in to the venue, only ten mins late in to the set. My friend found a rasta beanie which he gave to me to wear as a disguise for the rest of the night, and i scored the cute girl i had been chatting up before the whole fiasco began. Happy days!

SPD sent me a tee from the 2005 show and rook sent me one from the recent tour... more thought need to be put into the designing of AE tees... blue letters on black is rather boring... but i still wear them with pride!

i was hoping for more of a design even with letters like the quarstice album cover. i think others will enjoy this shirt more than me so take me out of the raffle.
