    It's always fun predicting that there will be overreactions to something and not being wrong.

    Don't ever let me down 10C members. 
    There's still time today to confirm a Spectrum box set. We'll just over analyze Mike's TV interview while we wait!

    I like the art, not the politics.....I cant stand Trump, living in NY my whole life I gotta an extra helping of all his nonsense.....I support the bands views 90% of the time....this is why the left is always holding a bag of shit on election nights.....doesn't help the situation. If I wore this in front of my repub friends, 75% people also in my industry republican....not a good look for me

    Subtlety  always better

    Art is badass....but cmon, send a message via your songs
  • i guess...confirmed...we going for election tour....they  gonna go hard on trump


    I hope EV yells at trump at every show in 2020 and I do not care if it alienates a few fans.

    Is that really Donald Trump on the shirt? It seems to be a man in a suit and tie with hair eerily similar to his...and the palm trees and big building in the back cannot be missed.

    Update: it definitely is lol. I've gotta say, I hate Trump as much as the next guy, but is the hatchet with blood on it entirely necessary? Kinda messed up, no? I could just be a big wimp
    I think it's fantastic, lol.

    I like it! Is this a politically themed Halloween shirt? Looks like Mar-a-Lago is the building in the background, surrounded by palm trees. That elevates the shirt to an A+ for me.
    Holy shit! The guy running away has an extra-long Trump-like tie, too.

    It's totally Trump and his wife, and this is the boldest artistic political statement PJ has made in years, and I'm glad they have the balls to do it, haha.

    Don’t forget the Missoula poster from last (?) year. Now that was on the news everywhere

    I for one have almost always been a part of the "fuck the talkin, let's start rockin" club when EV gets on his rants during a show.  BUT...  I am right there with you on this!

    Oh yeah, right. That was good too. I'm glad they didn't let the people who were upset about that stop them from repeating the sentiment, lol.
    The shirt is all metaphorical of course - the killer, I would assume,is the voting citizens against Trump's reelection (the band members among them), and the bloody hatchet is their votes. Because Halloween. I think it's silly to get offended by it.

    Trump would never wait for Melania. He'd be the type to scurry away by himself.

    thought the exact same thing.. but PJ puts it out so most will be OK with it.. 
    Huh? Halloween is all about scary and horror. Are people expecting a Halloween shirt with Mickey and Minnie Mouse sitting in a field of clover having a picnic?
    Curious about what is poor taste on it as well. 
    ...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...

    Funny, I thought In light of the world we live in that it’s politically poignant

    Indeed !! Not talking about that clown at every show is a big mistake imo. The fear of him being re-elected is very real.

    It's fantastic. At first glance I thought this was hot garbage. Now I think it is a subversive masterpiece.

    I agree with a lot of your points, but think this shirt is pretty subtle. We're analyzing zoomed images. How many people would pick up on all of that just glancing at someone wearing it?
