GNR is selling a shirt which is simply:

The Guns N' Roses logo... run through a filter in Photoshop.

You can get one for $30.00.

Why?

It's their logo run through a Photoshop Filter.

It takes no time or talent.

It’s to coincide with their stupid upcoming Greatest Hits LP release.

The same Greatest Hits compilation that none of them wanted out in the first place.

And then to top it all off, they put a backwards photo on the LP of Slash, showing him as a left handed player...

Fucking amateurs.

Team Brazil are a bunch of clowns.

I think all he’s trying to say is that you’d really hard pressed to prove anything was a new low for this band.

That is pretty tacky. It looks like a grey circle on a shirt. From a distance no one would know what it is.

It's definitely to coincide with the GH re-release.

This one looks lazy but possibly looks better in person than it does on that photoshop mockup. Either way, outside of hopefully seeing them next year not buying any of this band's merch until they start actually releasing new music.

Will you pay $30 for a grey circle on a t-shirt?

Do you remember 1987...do you remember 1992? You can with another copy of the greatest hits and a grey circle t-shirt.

The ONLY GNR shirt I would buy is the Lies shirt....IF they even sell them.

In 8th grade, I owned all the AFD shirts and the two Lies shirts(the cover and the crappy Used to Love Her shirt). Other than the infamous rape scene shirt, the Lies cover shirt stood out the most and caused quite a stir walking down the halls.

Freshman year at Davis, one of my teachers ordered me to take it off.

Only GNR shirt I own is the 2006 Hammerstein shirt DTJ bought me at the show and mailed it to me.

Having said that, I'm a passenger in the same boat as Axl S and others where the next time they get a dime from me is when music is released.

Haha, I owned the Lies shirt too— still have it. I also had to cover it up when I wore it to school.
