So, I went to Khol's today to pick up a few new t-shirts. As of late, it seems to have become trendy to have some sort of imagery of guitars and such on them, but there are none with BASSES on them.
Why is this? I want a shirt with awesome bass imagery on it! Is there an untapped market that needs tapping? Could I be making money on this?

On the front it says, "One bright morning when my work is done..." and on the back it says "I will fly away home". I think it's a Wailers shirt though. Good enough for me though.
I also have a golf shirt. And a green t-shirt. And a pair of brown shorts. And a flip-flop. |

do a little investigating, and you'll find them..however, hard to find in stores..I got the AC/DC and the rocker ones at Walmart..
but remember: we don't get respect!!
