  here\'s a question, do we want 1998 for the inception of the band or 2000 (I think) for the inception of the song?

  
  Please discuss so I can post a preview and get feedback. Thanks.

• Wow! You are actually doing this.  Cool.  I almost didn\'t bother pointing out the original, now I\'m glad I did.
  
  Any way, seeing as Space City is mentioned in other songs, and it\'s a recurring theme in Breakfast Music, I say 1998

• Besides the year question, I just posted a poll. This will not be going on a t-shirt for the time being. It\'s either gonna be a hoodie or long sleeved tee, with \'the breakfast\' going down the left sleeve. I think it\'ll look better on either of those, and it\'s also easier to get the band name on it somewhere rather than having just the band name across the back (as of right now no web site URL is goin on it)

• I want to say that with "The Breakfast" down the sleeve it would look better on a long sleeve.  But I\'ve been wanting a Breakfast hoodie for a long time, so I\'d like it either way.

• space city affair is also the name of the bands publishing company, so I think it holds a larger place than just another song. I say use the bands inception date, 1998.

  1962= 1998 or 2000

• Here\'s a few previews. I stuck with the basic red/black color scheme but it could be changed to whatever. There a few very slight differences between my artwork and the original Astros shirt, most notably I changed the pale yellow to white. As for the sleeve thing, I\'m open to other options, but feel the band name should be somewhere (or the logo alone would work too). Discuss.

• Not a fan of the red.  Too bright.  Maybe ifd it wasn\'t so much of a firetruck red.
  
  I really dig the way it turned out on the black though.
  
  here\'s another question that would swing my vote.  What the quality/price of the hoodie be?  If it\'s gonna be super thin cheap hoodie I\'d prefer the long sleeve.  But I don\'t want to pay an arm and a leg for it either.  So middle ground would be good.

• Black hoodie, definitely!  It matches the hat  
  
  And, may as well ask some questions before these go into print/production:
  
  1.  How much?
  2.  When will they be ready?
  3.  Are "girlie hoodies" available?
