The "Purple Rain" t-shirt is becoming omnipresent Years ago wearing a Prince t-shirt meant you were a fan.
Now shirts with "Purple Rain" are almost like AC/DC, Metallica, Guns N Roses and Nirvana t-shirts; just shirts you can buy at Target and maybe not even know a single song of theirs.
Now, if the estate can just come up with another Prince t-shirt for the masses they'll be off to the races.

I often see young people wearing Metallica, Nirvana, The Beatles or even Nas T-shirts and I always wonder if they really like the musicians on their T-shirts or if it´s just a trend to wear a band shirt.

I nominate the Parade-era, black and white Jeff Katz photo T-shirt - the one where he’s wearing a crop top and his arms are raised framing his face. If it weren’t so complicated to post a photo here i would post mine | |

Yes, what can I say, I understood the question to be to come up with another fan fave T-shirt, even if it’s a ubiquitous one for some. Perhaps I misunderstood the question. I thought it would get more love than this, though | |

Grafitti Bridge is the other one I see pretty frequently as a fashion choice. | |

I've seen a girl with a parade era shirt a few days ago. Pretty sure it's not from a store around, so she might be a fan and ordered it from a website. | |

I saw them selling like hot cakes next to Blaupunkt TVs. The world's problems like climate change can only be solved through strategic long-term thinking, not expediency. In other words all the govts. need sacking!
If you can add value to someone's life then why not. Especially if it colors their days... | |

Is this a for-real picture of her in this shirt?
If so, it's interesting she'd wear Prince after he dissed her in L.A. | |

Free promotion . I'm guilty of this with other artists/ shows/ etc tho I try 2 freshen up on them b4 or after I buy shirt. I haven't seen any1 wearing a PR shirt but def have seen them 4 sale. Got a few myself even tho it isn't my all time fave. Gotta represent . Saw a cool For You era 1 (u know the pic where he's buck naked a couple times behind a guitar) a LONG time ago at the Hot Topic. Woulda got it if the 1 in my size didn't look like it would fit half of me . For all time I am with you, you are with me. | |

People are such fakes today. One of the main reasons to go to the concert was to buy the T shirt. They make them for newborn babies now.
