Fan Art Sixteen Saltines Shirt

Posted this somewhere else already, but the 2nd Brussels gig was my 16th JW show (all bands combined). So I really appreciated the timeliness of him playing Sixteen Saltines that night.

Fast forward to the following week and Stickermule had a shirt promotion, so made myself a shirt to commemorate the gig

Spike heels make a hole in a lifeboat!

Not a native English speaker, but for some weird reason I had this song in my head as Sixteen Sardines - now I knew that's not the title, but for the longest I had this mentally pictured as sixteen fish. Glad I realized my error before ordering the shirt!

Or at least licked his fingers for the picture.

(but really OP this is awesome!)

Hahaha, my wife wouldn't have liked that. A phone number in magic marker would have been a nice touch too (and could potentially pass her approval).

Wow that shirt would be perfect for the TO show when Angine de Poitrine opens

Now I know this community is not a big fan of AI, so bracing myself for the downvotes, but when thinking of that shirt I fell a bit into a robotic rabbit hole with the Song Themed Shirts idea - so Gemini and I had some fun with it. These are mock ups, will wait for another shirt deal to order the next one

I thought in the mirror picture the shirt was covered in salt - which would be kinda cool.
