So look, I am a big dude. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] No, REALLY!!! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
But I must say I am getting salty at companies for not thinking of us when making merchandise. Case in point: Head over the J/C web site and look at the merch pages. The ONLY thing wearable I can buy is a hat. That just sucks ass, I mean cmon...ya they offer a Tee in XXL but be realistic, MOST people these days will wear a XXL anyway. C'mon, step up and throw some larger sizes out there for those of us NOT addicted to CRACK and only weighing in at a staggering 125lbs soaking wet!!! [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img]
My band makes it a POINT to stock XXXL and larger shirts and in all seriousness, we cannot keep them in stock at gigs. People always ask for more and we gladly supply them, even at a slightly higher price...doesnt matter, they sell. Same at concerts, they charge $30 - $45 for a tee at a rock concert, the shirts are super cheap quality and IF and I STRESS IF they have a XXL it would barely fit someone who normally wears a L or XL.
Just felt the need to rant for a second about this. I mean *I* for one spend MUCH time and MUCH Money on Jackson/Charvel guitars, they are hands down the coolest and best guitars I have ever owned or played, but DAMN IT I want a Jackson Tee shirt!
Now before you start flaming away and start with the "lose some weight dude and then you won't have to worry about it" bullsh*t, remember one thing...it's NOT always about that and it's not always possible for SOME of us. I am a big guy and I have been since forever and JUST for the record I am healthy as HELL with perfect marks for EVERYTHING every time I get a checkup, ok? I DO NOT Live inside a twinkie box. Get it?? It's just a fact that I am a big dude, so MAKE SOME SHIRTS FOR ME DAMMIT!!! [img]graemlins/help.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rant.gif[/img]
Anyway, just venting and wondering if there are any other's out there who feel the same way? Thanks for listening!
Be COol,
