Band T-Shirts

[u/Numerous_Hospital293]

Now that DIRT in anglia square has closed down, I was just wondering what other shops there are in the city centre that sell band shirts?
I'm looking for rock/metal band shirts. I know primark have a few at the moment but not interested in getting band shirts there.
Thank you

Generally I'm all for buying local, but for band merch you tend to find it's best to go direct to their sites to ensure majority of the cut is going directly to your fave bands. Even the small bands tend to have their merch online rather than in shops.

Otherwise, I'd say cruise the vintage and charity shops we've got. Can't really guarantee what you'll find, but i've seen some nice tour shirts in charity shops.

Buy from the bands own merch store, not some bootleg tat from one of these places.

The best band shirts I've gotten tend to be at gigs or their own webstores. That way you know the money's going to the band and not the company that's licensed their image.

Beatnik's had a few Tshirts up the other day - might be worth a look

Picked up a New Japan Pro Wrestling shirt for £6 the other day!

I do like TruffleShuffle. There's also EMP.

There’s sometimes a stall on Brigg Street. Also HMV has some.

That stall perfectly demonstrates the "bootleg tat" comment above. How it retains it's street trading licence is beyond me.
