Eh?!

Dr Volume's picture

What do you make of this?

Stupid mistake or is it cool cos its wrong in a sort of so uncool its, like, cool type way (a-la Nathan Barley).

Is it the ultimate shirt for teenage kids to annoy their Word/Mojo reading dad?

Judging from the achingly hip stuff sold on the site, possibly.

I'm in a covers band

and last night or 23-year-old singer said, "We should do Fly Away. You know, by Jimi Hendrix."

She meant this.

mistaken or what?

Gigging here in Italy, I was recently complimented on my version of 'that Michael Buble song' Recoiling from the horror of the accusation, I managed to figure out they meant Moondance ... strong drink was administered immediately

Reminds me of the friend of a friend who heard 70s Stevie Wonder

and said, "Hey, he sounds a bit like Jamiroquai"

Might be a trend

Just before Christmas I saw a "hip" clothes shop selling a T-shirt with a picture of Blur and the Oasis logo on it, which I admit I found quite amusing.

I'm sure this Hendix/Marley shirt is deliberate, and the studied artlessness of it (monochrome, brutally cropped image, off-the-shelf type) adds another layer of irony. £20, though? Zeesh, expensive joke...

Well...

It's certainly not aimed at Word/Mojo reading dads - there's no XL.

Ahem! Ex-cer-use me!

I am as as thin as Pete Doherty on a diet!*

for the Camden crowd

No doubt to be worn with massive 80s sunglasses, painted on jeans, a baseball cap (not shaped) and ladies' plimsolls.

Ladies and gentlemen I present to you the current NME readership:

Yeah,

Lucky we didn't look silly when we were young and NME readers.

Doug B | 28 January 2010 - 3:47pm

I'm still young

And I read NME (they seem to be going through a good patch at the moment with The xx, These New Puritans and Charlotte Gainsbourg all having extensive articles about them)

And I'm young.

And I don't dress silly. (At least I don't think I do... I'm not wearing dirty dunlop plimsolls anyway and my jeans can let me breathe, which is the main thing!)

Surely anyone even slightly cool...

doesn't go to Camden Market anymore? It lost its soul about 20 years ago...
