Hi. This was a jacket I started in the 80s, when I first started getting into HM. In fact, it wasn't this exact denim because I've put on a bit of weight in the last 30 years (I was 16 when I bought my first patch). Anway, this jacket celebrates the first 8 years of gigs I saw (there are also a couple of non-metal patches on this jacket, but these are the bands I was into and saw live between 1983 and 1991, with the exception of BLS patch, which is covering a rip and I couldn't find a long then 80s patch to do the job) . Where possible, I've used patches from that time - some bought at the time, some bought since, some now on their third jacket.
