That usually doesn't stop me from being tempted by them though. I was really close to buying that long black and white "surveillance camera on fire" one from Aftershock last year. I stopped and stared at it for a good 20 mins. I decided against it because I literally have 10 NIN posters rolled up in a tube. I don't have the wall space.
The problem with t-shirts is, they always end up shrinking on me. I was dumb and for all the shows I went to between 2008 and 2013 I bought size medium, but they are all virtually unwearable now because they are all skin tight. I need a size Large now.
I lucked out at the With Teeth 2005 tour. I was still in my "size medium" habits back then, but they were all sold out of the tour shirt in sz Medium at the Toronto shows. I was so bummed, so bought a Large. I never wore the shirt nearly 8 years because I thought it was "too big" and then one day I wore it hiking and I was like "damn, this is a comfy sized shirt" and from that point on it clicked and I got Large shirts.
So now I have an abundance of totally awesome unwearable tour t-shirts in Size medium that just sit in the closet.
It all depends on the band and the make of the shirts as well. For some reason, I bought a size Large tour shirt from TOOL and it's unwearable. It's super small. It's like a medium. It was the last large too, and my buddy tried it on first and was like "nope, too small" and he upgraded to an XL... in hindsight, I should have taken his advice and got an XL. But you really never know until you get it home and wash it once or twice.
