i was planning on doing my rufus/ruffles shirts.. they may be too pricey though since it\'s 4 (i think) colors.. i will have to see..

since there\'s interest, i\'ll start rolling the ball..

every band should provide free stickers to people who go to their shows

easier said than done broseph.

The hats once they got off the ground sold very well, well enough that the band took a bunch on the road and sold them quickly.  While I do agree with leith (..... wait ...... what? :wah: ) you don\'t need to make it a big .info vote or whatever, but it\'s good to know that the interest is there so you\'re not going to make a bunch of shit that you think is cool, only to be stuck with something that no one will buy, as a former merch guy trust I have seen this happen.  Whatever happens I\'m on board, will even throw down some $$ to run a print of shirts or something.

I\'m sure even another run of hats for the merch table would sell very well.

maybe I take some of those logos and get some stickers out there. not sure which ones were the best but I think there was a .info vote or something so I just take the top ones from that.  the only breakfast stickers I have is the one from real radio along with the original PB sticker.

yeah... I have the "Attraction" tank, but it\'s not flattering @ all - maybe us girls of .info can design a better one?

if it is deemed parody, the owner of the copyright is not entitled to any sort of royalty.  thats why weird al doesn\'t have to pay out the ass every time he releases a record.

I know it\'s probably expensive but I do like the Rufus/ruffles idea if the mental picture I\'m getting is right.
