    I wasn't trying to scare anyone away....I just don't want it to end up being one of those things that everyone says..."yeah cool, I want one" and then I get them ordered and we can get rid of 10....then I'm stuck with $286 in shirts.

    ......on a side note.....bump it to the top again! :)

    21 days and counting!

    Exactly, and I'm glad you brought the issue up man. Like we said, this is really being done as a favor to everyone. We aren't making a profit on this, and we don't have a reliable and easy way to sell these afterwards.

    I've designed shirts in the past and tried to market them, and discovered the hard way it just isn't worth it if you don't have your own screen printing business or a website to do it from. In fact, I still have about a dozen sitting in a box that I printed years ago and they aren't going anywhere. I tried record stores, independent skate shops, etc. Nobody wanted to pick them up. These are also really "an inside joke" specific to this particular fan base.

    If you guys want one, please pre-order. Otherwise the only Apline shirts at the show will be made with Sharpie markers.

    i would get one since its a great cause... but i just think id feel like a phony wearing a shirt that says "i survived the icebowl" when i wasnt actually there... and i would get sick of explaining the shirt to friends... how bout putting pearl jam somewhere on the shirt? or is that against copyright?

    I'd rather not face a copyright issue if there was one. I think the design as it stands right now is a good compromise of the best Ideas that were suggested, and I can't really change it any more at this point. I think part of the appeal is it is a fun little "inside joke" for PJ fans and members of this board, and it shouldn't really have to be explained.

    hope theres a better response at the last minute here


    Just order one will you. :)

    As of right now we have 9 (11 now) shirts paid for.

    I have had several people ask for them to be shipped. I can do that no problem. Just add a $3 per shirt for shipping. I'm not sure exactly how much shipping will be but that should about cover it. (updated the price for shipping to cover materials to ship it in). Just put your address in the comments in paypal.

    I have also had several people going to Chicago ask if they will be there. If you pre-order it...I can assure you that they will make it to the Chicago pre-party for you. If you don't pre-order, I can't guarantee there will be any there.

    I am going to put the final order in Friday morning.

    Thanks! :)
