Ok, I admit it. I'm kind of a concert t-shirt addict.
Sure, by the time you're at the show you've already shelled out plenty for the ticket itself- and the shirts are undeniably overpriced-- but there's nothing like the thrill of getting to a concert and pushing your way through the throng to see what treasures the merch. booth has to offer.
There's usually a variety of snazzy/clever/catchy shirts to choose from (bonus points if they actually have the tour dates on the back, making it even more of an epic souvenir!) I usually only ever intend to buy a shirt from the headliner- but sometimes the opening act's shirt is just too awesome to pass up, and I end up with a double-header.
You just can't beat the joys of the "morning after" when you get to don your concert tee with pride. It always serves as a great conversation piece. "Oh, did you go to the show?" someone will ask you. Suddenly you've been given the perfect opportunity to reminisce just a bit- reliving your favorite moments from the performance.
Yes- I'm a concert shirt addict. I have a closet full of "souvenirs," and I wouldn't have it any other way :-)
