The National

Just a heads up. My pink rabbit shirt somehow flipped itself in the wash and the raised lettering burned in the drier. It now looks like toasted marshmallows

You should line dry your t-shirts, man. Last way longer.

I have a ventless drier. So 99% of the time nothing comes out dry anyways. This was just bad luck. Besides, washing on cold and drying on low or medium isn't going to make a noticeable difference except maybe over a decade. Even then I have some shirts that look good as new.

I'm washing it again/sprayed some shout on it and emailed the webstore asking if they have a tour merch contact. But good chance I may ask someone here or on reddit to snag me a new one.

No luck but not that bad. First Pic is from the internet and then the rest are the shirt with varying lighting/zoom. Bad luck/memento mori now

Maybe you can try to reach out to a screen printing company and ask if scorch remover can help? I think these products might only work for fabric, but perhaps they can offer advice on a different product?

Hoping I get an email from the webstore. Definitely an option. Right now I'm leaning towards @Djxfactor511 helping me out and then selling the damaged one for like $25

Cross post from the concerts thread.

Great show all around last night with The National, The War on Drugs, and Lucius! Walked in the venue right at Lucius was playing "Dusty Trails". I've seen them two or three times before and their voices are always so captivating. I was disappointed to have arrived late for their set.

The War on Drugs were next. Adam was LOOSE. Like, "did he have too much to drink tonight?" levels of loose. But man, does the band sound sooooo good. My 5th time seeing them. Obligatory feature with Lucius for "I Don't Live Here Anymore".

The National was actually more subdued than I remember them. It's been 5 years since they last crossed my path. Matt's voice sounded better than the last time too. Not 1 song from Laugh Track, but 4 from First Two Pages. Played Rylan with Lucius and a cover of "Bring On The Dancing Horses" with Adam from The War On Drugs. Still trying to get my high school alma mater to induct Matt into their Fine Arts Hall of Fame. My 7th time seeing them.

Just saw the email, got the 404 and assumed it had sold out already. Sounds like maybe not?
