Iron Knob, South Australia Superthread

[Axver]

I want a t-shirt with a setlist on it.

Why is there stuff dripping off the sticky-outy bits?

It's the graphic art fashion of the day.

By the way, does anyone else agree that t-shirts suck more than ever these days? I mean, they really suck. They are terrible.

God Bless America t-shirt from Zazzle.com

Not like this. This is a good shirt. I will buy this shirt.

And speaking of creative hands... before I attempt to steal a few more hours of sleep, I have to show you guys what I made for my friend Caitlin....

An Edge-guin!

Most annoying sewing project EVER. But it turned out quite well. I'm particularly fond of the Explorer.

I think that this penguin wins the Superthread.

That is adorable.

I WANT THE EXPLORER.

The Explorer itself was easier than all the sewing combined for the rest. It was just a lot of cutting of cardboard.

I'm thinking about beginning to work with polymer clay though, and I could just imagine making tiny Explorer necklace pendants and/or keychains. And if someday I figure out how to do image transfers onto clay, I could make little pendant/keychains of all the album covers and tour logos



By the way, the Zazzle shop I abandoned some time ago:

I might take you up on that soonish actually.

And whoah, that is a really cool t-shirt!

Ta... wore it to Melb II

Cool... I've only got the paper for white t-shirts though, hope that's okay.

 

[Axver]

Not just any setlist t-shirt, mind you.

A Kunstmuseum setlist t-shirt.

 

[The Sad Punk]

How about "Kick Larry Mullen out of the band" shirts?

I would wear it, but then Larry would chase me down and stab me (his only form of reaction).

 

[Alisaura]

They're the bits of Bono's brain that help him remember lyrics.

Wow, that makes so much sense, it's scary.

More than ok. How do you actually print them? Like, do you need a jpg file or a word file?

EPIC WIN!

We should all get one. Or at least, those of you who were involved should.

If he can get to you before a rabid alliance of PLEBAns and EYKIWians enraged by your heresy murder you first.

Remember how I was showing those youtube videos of a guy throwing a chopstick with lethal accuracy from about 3 metres? Bet you Larry can do it with drumsticks from 30 metres.

I wholeheartedly endorse this idea. Kunstmuseum shirts for all Superthreaders!

I have a vision.

A One t-shirt for Ax, with the buffalo or whatever on the front, but instead of the different words for "one" on the back, a setlist.
Possibly of the Kunstmuseum gig, or possibly 22 versions of One, with different snippets in each.

I think Bad with different snippets in each would work better.

I hadn't seen this when I posted just before!!

Let's use LeMel's sig for the front and the set for the back like the white Vertigo tour tshirt! Y'know, the one of the band walking.

No way, if that was the case then Bono would be dead by now.

Unless, you know, he really is Jesus or some shit.

 

[major_panic]

Now imagine that, with LeMel's sig on front instead, and Kunstmuseum setlist on the back instead. Could work nicely!

And I just saw a tshirt saying "Bono is my pastor", too.

Depends on what you're printing... the "AU2STRALIA" bit on the front I did as a word file, I think, cos I had to cut the one I wanted off a bunch of variations that someone had made, and paste it on its own in another document. But the collage thing I printed straight off a jpeg file, I think.
There's a setting on the printer that will reverse the image, especially for transfer paper.

Great minds, etc.

Ooh, yes.

We need to find somebody who can do this as a black t-shirt though. Have you noticed I don't wear white? I'm white enough, you know.

 

[Alisaura]

It wasn't exactly a stunningly unexpected leap of intuition

Ahh ok, interesting. Cause I already have the jpeg files, I was trying to get a tshirt earlier.

Could I trouble you to print them out for me? If, of course, you don't mind printing non-U2-related stuff - I'd just have to find a way to get them off you later, is all.

What I want to do is have the figure on the left breast, front and the word centre middle, back.

 

[major_panic]

Ooh, yes.

Afraid you'll fade into the foreground or something on a sunny day?

 

[major_panic]

Oh, and by the way:

Haha, I have that t-shirt.

If you wore white, wouldn't you look less white in comparison?

Also, I'm told that doing black t-shirt transfers is a right royal pain in the arse. If your printer's version of black and the t-shirt's version of black don't match up, it looks like crap.

Dangit, I told myself I'd go to bed at 11,500 posts.

Must be going... toodles, folks! Let me know what's going on next week...
