i very unexpectidly (sp?) helped out at the merch table for a local band that i hand out flyers for a few weeks back, and while i was working the table 2 girls that were working for another band that i've seen a few times, kept wandering off, so after a while the guitarist comes over and gives me the key for thier lock box, and says that if i will stay and help run the table that i can have a free t-shirt and a cd.

so after accepting a t-shirt, i started thinking about what i would do with it.

and viola!

i used another tank top of mine that fits snuggly, but doesn't have a lot of stretch (cause neither did the shirt) and cut out the same shape and size.

i used the finished cuff of the 2 sleeves as straps, and attached them using some buttons that i got a while ago at dew action sports tour (the myspace buttons felt very appropriate since i did find out about them through myspace).

and then i ran a piece of ribbon through the top casing so that it wasn't loose enough far guys to be looking down my top.

thanks guys, i also forgot to say that they had a show tonight that i went to and the guy that gave the t-shirt to me said that it was one of the coolest things he's ever seen. so as long as the band likes it i'm happy, and i'm thrilled that you guys like it too.
