Ghost Shirt t-shirt Contest

So it's painfully obvious that Ghost Shirt has little in the way of merchandise to sell at our shows. We have 'Domestique' our first full-length Cd, we have an e.p. that no one can locate, we have a bunch of singles scattered about the internent and for one show only we had a special preview to our upcoming album that is now sold-out.

What we need are t-shirts, but none of us can seem to come up with an idea we all agree on. My idea of a shirt that simply read "Steeler Nation" was quickly shot down; Merf wanted a wolf with huge tits and a big swinging dick; Sam wanted a violin with whiskers; and Branden simply wanted his face superimposed on the body of Simon Lebon. Though all are special in their own right, none seem to have that special oomph that we are looking for. So after much debate and name calling we have decided to ask you what you would like to see on a t-shirt. We are totally serious about this. Come up with a design or an idea and send it to us. We will sit down and decide which one we like best then get them printed. As an extra incentive the winner gets their very own show featuring, yup, Ghost Shirt. Please keep in mind that you will not be allowed to invite any of your friends or significant others and we will ask that if you have kids that you send them to a movie with the wife while we perform for you. Actually, we won't really be performing, we will simply stare at you while we play our new Cd at very high volumes.

Here are the rules:
1. No bears, Cameros, unicorns, boobs, deer or hawks
2. No yield signs, stick men, or pictures of monkies urinating their own mouth
3. No tie-dye or arrows
4. No statements that end with "...for lovers"
5. No wolves, full-moons, upside down crosses, or anything else that would sit comfortably on the cover of a Rush album

So if you have an idea that you would like to see simply email that idea or a mock-up of your idea to: thatghostshirtband@gmail.com

We are excited (read: terrified) to see your ideas.

Show updates:

Nov. 13 w/ Maidson Square Gardeners and No No Nots @ the Treehouse
Dec. 4th Benefit for our friend Felicia @ the Treehouse
Jan. 8th Cinci show w/ our new friends the No No Nots

Coming soon: Wigginstock update / Album update.

cheers,
ghost shirt
