Hi everyone -
This is my first post here, though I'm not quite sure why it took me so long. I have a quick question for anyone that can help me out. After the Chicago show on Saturday, my sister and I stuck around to meet the guys. So glad I did, (even though I made a general fool out of myself with the fangirling), because when Fran came out he walked up to my sister and I first and handed us a Selfish Jean shirt. It's the Art/Music/Jaffa Cake one, which he was wearing during the show.
Anyway, he signed it, and at first I was thinking, "how nice! He gave us a free shirt!" But then looking on it the next day, in the light - it has marks on it. Around the collar where a guitar strap would rub against it, and it other places. It's obviously been worn - and he wrote "tee-shirt on loan" on the back - all of which makes me think this was the actual shirt he wore during the show, or maybe another show.
This was a very long-winded way of asking if anyone else was lucky to get a shirt like this from Fran. I'd like to know if this really is the shirt he wore during the show. Any thoughts? |

| This was from a show. Not sure which one. That is indeed a guitar strap mark. Nice. Glad you like it. |

Hi, Fran!
Thank you so much for replying personally - and for the shirt! I love it, and I do indeed feel very lucky. After that amazing show I didn't think the night could get any better, but you were all so thoughtful and kind when you came outside. You guys are the absolute best.
Lots of love,
-Crystal |

So he has like 20 of those shirts and he wears a different one every show? (reminds me of Simpsons)?!!
Does this mean Dougie has 20 of those striped shirts and he wears a different one each time?hmmmmmm |

Haha - that was one of my first thoughts, too :)
I'm so conflicted about what to do with it. Part of me does want to frame it like it's a sports jersey, or treat it like it's a game ball or something. The other (more insistent) part of me wants to wear all day, every day, and show it off.
Hopefully I can find a happy medium. |
