    I'll try and have something done for ya tomorrow.


    I love this idea. :D


    It's a fun way to express how some of us feel. Thanks for looking into this. :)

    So how about a shirt that says:

    "PLAY ALPINE VALLEY" inside the Wisconsin map outline? I figure it would also need a star locating East Troy, or star that says: "Greatest Concert Venue On Earth" where East Troy is. :)

    And....

    If it wouldn't be too much more expensive to print:

    "I survived the Ice Bowl" on the back. ;)

    What do you guys think? I could probably draw something up pretty quick in Illustrator.


    I woke up this morning thinking about this idea. :D

    Does it go up in price with the size of the shirt?
    ? maybe for xxl and up....maybe a $1 if I remember right. Will we need big ones?
    Like a word misplaced...nothing said...what a waste

    Okay, here are the Alpine Shirts!

    I made 2 versions. I think regardless of which text we use (click links to see difference), this should go on a yellow shirt. Because A) It's a bright obnoxious color that Ed should be able to see if someone in the front rows happens to be wearing one. B) You have to acknowledge green or yellow if it's a WI themed shirt.

    So here's version 1:

    On a shirt:

    Version 2:

    http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k41/AutoX_FIB/AlpineV2.jpg

    On a shirt:

    http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k41/AutoX_FIB/AlpineV2onshirt.jpg

    I'd also like to put "I Survived the Ice Bowl" on the back if it doesn't increase the price much.

    What do you guys think? Vote for which one you like!

    I like the first one better that has East Troy on it. "Greatest Venue on Earth" could offend some people, even though it is the greatest. If someone gets close to the front, they gotta try getting one of those shirts to Eddie!

    Anyone know if Atomic Records is still open on Locust? Since we're coming down to Milwaukee, I want to check it out. Haven't been there for years.

    This is great!! I love the idea about surviving the ice bowl. We all need to do this and wear these shirts, it is possible our wish will come true.

    Yeah, my idea was to push some people's buttons with the "Greatest Venue On Earth" part, just because some people think Alpine is over-rated. I figure it would be a good conversation starter when you wear it to other future shows. We'll see what the concenus opinion is though.

    Atomic is definitely still open.

    what about instead of I survived Ice Bowl - how about asking for another Ice Bowl? maybe on the back, you could say like Dec. 2008, Ice Bowl II?! (or not)
