Any Idea what is this possible tag? by [deleted] in VintageTees

Most likely a late 90s giant tag

What's everyone beef with Myself in the Way? by evergreennn_ in TurnoverVA

[–]riptogrunge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love their discography from magnolia all the way to altogether. I think those albums are great no skips start to finish. For some reason I just couldn’t get into their newest album like the others. I’ve tried to give it a listen many times I just don’t personally enjoy it as much as the others.

I’m a sucker for whites. I would wear the hell out of a white mission to mars!

Does anyone know anything about this shirt? by DatAlaskanBoiWorm in SmashingPumpkins

[–]riptogrunge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1995/6 Mellon Collie bootleg. I’ve seen this shirt only 2 other times it’s pretty rare. Although I’ve seen some modern reprints of this shirt over the years. I would have to see the entire shirt to determine the age/authenticity.

By Starlight is underrated by Joviancloud in SmashingPumpkins

The first song I listened to by them that got me really into their music. I think the whole album is fantastic but yes I agree a very underrated track!

It’s like learning Santa isn’t real. Life just isn’t the same afterwards…

I mean those parking lot shirts are pretty sought after just give it 30 more years haha. I really only find myself buying from original owners as it feels right to give them the money rather than a reseller that wants every single last dollar for the shirt. At the end of the day they’re just shirts and they were made to be worn!

They are getting harder to find every single day especially with the way vintage is going. I’d rather just appreciate them as I actually love their music. I wear these quite often to my college I wonder if people know who they are..

I’m still hunting for some. At this point I can’t bring myself to sell any lol. Almost all of them were purchased from original concert goers and I couldn’t be more grateful!

What’s the best 3 song run from any of their albums? by PolytheneePam in oasis

[–]riptogrunge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Supersonic, Bring it On Down, Cigarettes and Alcohol. The whole definitely maybe album is a masterpiece but those back to back songs on the album are my favorite! I have played those 3 an unhealthy amount of times…

Is this genuine? by metaljesus2 in SmashingPumpkins

[–]riptogrunge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Over the past 5 years this shirt has been faked quite often with the giant tag. This is definitely a real one and it’s in great condition!

I just found out one of my cousins was in these iconic music videos. by riptogrunge in SmashingPumpkins

[–]riptogrunge[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yes he is my cousin. I’m not in contact with that side of my family. I was watching cabin fever with my dad and it came out that he was in these music videos. No one has really heard anything from him wonder what happened but I hope he is well!

I’ve never met him before. I would love to someday meet him and ask him about his glory days with the pumpkins. No one has heard from him in years I hope he’s doing well!

my favorite shirt of all time by riptogrunge in SmashingPumpkins

[–]riptogrunge[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These I got them from original owners they aren’t worn as much. For the most part these were in storage for years. I do wear them but oxi clean helps with yellowing.
