The Final Night: Our own T shirt......?

I've found this great website which will make you a T shirt designed as you please and all in 2 days for.....wait for it.....£15!!!

Given the number of die-hard fams on here going on the final night, shouldn't we design our own T shirt, get it printed and make everyone who bought official merchandise really jealous????

My vote would be for a huge symbol on the front, with "This is Real Music" underneath, and then on the back, under that picture of Prince's silhouette behind a curtain at the Superbowl, the words "Prince, The Final Night, 21st September 2007, London."

And then along the bottom of the back, "Ain't nothin' but a muffin, But we gotta lotta butter to go" or some other funky quote.

Not like I've though about this a lot....anyway, it looks great on the website, but I thought I'd throw open the floor to other ideas before I order a bunch....

Elaine, a final night chant is a great idea. Blimey, T shirts, chanting....orgers will take over the place!

Another tag on the T shirts might be "VENI, VIDI, FUNKI"

Translation (with apologies to the Latin scholars): "I came, I saw, I got funky"

lol

What a great idea. Even though I haven't got a ticket yet for the final night I hope this happens.

Damn - I've already got myself a new frock for the last night.

Would be up for the chant though - Prince would love that I'm sure. Once it's finalised for sure make a new thread so everybody going sees it and knows what it is.

That made me laugh. I'd go for just a big symbol on the front. And on the back something like:

21 Nights in London
The finale: 21 September 2007

VENI, VIDI, FUNKI

It would be cool if loads of us turned up with the same t-shirt. But it only really works on a large scale.

I'm not even bloody going and I'm getting excited about the T-shirt idea. My sister is going - and I know she will REALLY want a T-shirt. I have been having a great time orging of late - and felt really gutted that when you're actually there - I've no way of telling who is an orger! I've suspected a few - but never been sure enough to go up to someone - there were a couple of peeps in the q for the clipper last Sunday - we got let in the nice seating area - and they were nattering away and I was SURE they were orgers - but how do you broach the subject "hello, do you org at all' sounds just like the worst line ever.... The t-shirt idea would be just awesome - and of course the chanting. Everyone needs to agree on a time though - as no-one will be brave enough to pipe up on their own unless they can be sure others are in the know and will join in pretty quick! have a bloody great time! I won't be at all pissed off knowing I can't go!!

Love the purple glowstick idea!!!

Ok, so the t shirt website is this: www.tshirtstudio.com

I looked at a few sites but these seem to have the best printing process and can turn an order around in 2 days, which is good since time is short. The only problem is that the T shirts have to be a light colour for the printing process, so no purples! The good thing, however, is there are loads of styles to choose from and you can get more writing/picture combinations than I've seen on other sites.

As you can see, they're £15 each, so by all means go individual or we can agree on a design and I'll order a load on my Amex.

The idea is that we stand out to each other and to Prince right? So a white T with a big black square and a burning gold symbol in the middle will stand out a mile (see my avatar for example).

And before we all reveal our glorious shirts at some designated time, we could have individual polo shirts with the symbol at the left breast and your org name underneath!

Try out the designs and upload your pics to see how they would look and report back. Unfortunately, the site doesn't seem to allow you to link to your finished design, but I'll keep trying.

If there is to be consensus, I'm happy to order them tomorrow evening.
Veni, Vidi, Funki.

REALLY like the glowsticks idea - if we all put some money in and get a big bulk order, we can pass them around on the night for maximum effect. All in the name of good entertainment. And increasing the chances of an aftershow of course!!! Count me in for that too.
