About

Tell us about yourself?: 

I’ve always loved merch. Some of my first shirts were gifted to me by my cousin, both from the Monsters of Rock shows he went to at Donington (87 with Bon Jovi, 88 with Iron Maiden). He’d gotten me into Maiden and I was stoked he gave me the shirt he’d brought back from the festival (I was only 9 when it happened and wouldn’t get to go to any gigs for a couple more years yet!). I got more Maiden shirts, patches and badges from the fan club, and eventually went to gigs myself by all sorts of bands and bought all sorts of shirts. Many now lost along the way, but a few have made it. Love picking up more at gigs, awesome souvenirs. The classic shirts are the best though! My profile pic is me in my huge Somewhere on Tour shirt, when I was around 10 in 1990 or there abouts!
