After a year of work, my first vest (classic rock vest) is finally complete!!!! I couldn't find any patches to fill in certain areas so out of the blue today I decided to draw up the Van Halen logo and the BOC logo. I know not all of the bands are "classic rock" (Minor Threat, Sleep, Rammstein, etc.) but they're bands enjoy. The signatures are from Eddie Trunk (That Metal Show) and Foghat.

Dimmu Borgir is bubblegum pop to me.
joecubbie on
lol they kinda are the black metal equivalent to bubblegum pop

Nice.... lot of diversity and the autograps are killer...something i never have thought off in the past.... but then again, it wouldn't have been a pleasure for any artist to sign that stinky old rag of mine hahaha
joecubbie on
Lol each I'm gonna try to add more signatures as I go to more shows
Morbid_Welshman on
The signatures are a cool idea, but I'd be paranoid about them being washed off D:
joecubbie on
Never wash the vest lol
TStorm on
Nice! Cool to some variety! BTW just recently saw this BÖC patch on ebay if you're still looking for one. http://www.ebay.de/itm/BLUE-OYSTER-CULT-LOGO-Embroidered-PATCH-/23116903...

So you smoke bud eh? Or just like the stoner genre ...
joecubbie on
Nooooooo stoner genre lol. Lol so many people smoke dope though in Chicago. Chief Keef (rapper) is like "We smoke dope all day all night. Ya smoke Reggie that's that shit I don't like." Lmao it's crazy but it's life...http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6g5ZF6DUrHI

Not just from the wash, but from years of sweat and Beer :L
joecubbie on
No beer for me I'm straightedge haha...but good point on the sweat part lol
gizter on
i am sXe too, but i still get loads of beer from others over me at gigs. quite funny was when i replaced some patches from one jacket to another and smelled some of them out of curiosity... they actualy smelled like beer. and that couln't have been mine.
joecubbie on
Good point

Neither a fan of the vest itself, nor of the layout, nor of some bands (yeah, call me a music cretin), but I really like the drawings and the adequate amount of KISS-patches.
Formshifter on
ugly leprechaun vest, all patches straight from ebays overstock section, uncreative layout, yep thats 4 flames!
chris1234618 on
Buddy, don't be so critical! While I agree that the vest itself looks a little odd, the patches and layout are great! If he likes the bands, then who cares? Besides, such comments shouldn't be coming from a guy with 5 patches on his jacket.
Formshifter on
still working on mine, thats true, i have 30 more patches, few more coming in from trades on tss and cant decide on my layout till i get em all
powermetaller on
Uhuh! He got his patches from eBay, no trve-kvlt-vintage patches which cost a fortune. Oh, come on, please tell me more how many rare obscure and expensive patches you had when you were his age...
And as said, I don't like the layout and the vest, but the Van Halen drawing and quite a bunch of KISS-stuff somehow got me.
Well, I don't get what you like about commenting on other's opinions - oh, well, I forgot yours is the only valid one. Please excuse my ignorance!
Formshifter on
you just said youre not a fan of the layout or the vest
powermetaller on
I'm sorry, when I write "not a fan of sth" it usually means "I don't like it".
And I guess "but I really like the drawings and the adequate amount of KISS-patches" is also pretty clear.
Yet I'll never get, why it's considered that bad to have eBay-patches...
joecubbie on
True considering there are many "kvlt" patches on eBay
Formshifter on
ive got ebay patches, stuff that is rarer and had to fight for. i also have some common shit but ill probably never use em when i can fill it up with cooler shit. i thought these things were supposed to be personal and look badass. i dont think this vest in particular is very rough looking at all, its not even a kutte, but if everyone has the same patches as you it doesnt feel very personal
joecubbie on
I've never seen anyone with that Sabotage patch. Everyone goes for Paranoid or Vol. 4 but Sabotage is my favorite record. Never seen anyone with a Pat Benatar anything. One of the best singers ever. Never seen any vest with The Beatles. Never seen a vest signed by Foghat. Yeah, this is pretty personal to me.

A lot of these patches came from trades so you're wrong there

Thanks for the flames

Great bands, weird but cool lay out!
joecubbie on
Thanks! The vest is pretty weird itself so it was impossible to get a normal layout lol

Thanks! Too Fast For Love is one of my favorite Motley records and Lennon is my favorite songwriter.

Dude I really like the layout on this! Really simple and balanced. Good choice of bands too, and that's awesome you got signatures from Foghat. Great jacket!
