I don't typically do band shirts. But I got a DT shirt at the one show of theirs I've attended (Score), so that would have to be it.
-
I've got this DT shirt from that mini tour they did with YES.
it's a cacky military green with all their faces on the front.
Funny part is, I gave the tickets away to a guy on the promise of getting a shirt.
-
I have never owned a concert t-shirt.
I might get a DT one in April, tho.

I barely have any band shirts, but I have that SFAM one and it's my favourite as well.
-
Oh god, I own dozens of band shirts...
But this one sure is among my favs:
(https://i49.servimg.com/u/f49/15/99/89/35/base_t10.png)
And also a Frost* shirt which says "Keep Calm And Mellotron" on the front and "Careless Prog Costs Lives" on the back.

I wish I liked Haken more 'cause that's a great shirt.

My top 5 of mine, left to right and down and such.

My father was a Captain in the US Army when we lived in Berlin for two years when I was growing up. I saw the Scorpions play there. It was the 3rd concert I'd ever seen. 1st was Buddy Rich when I was like 9, and the 2nd was the Bee-Gees when I was like 11. Anyway fast forward two years from my Scorpions experience and we were back home in the states. It was August of 79, and I went to see Ted Nugent. About a week before the show it was announced that AC/DC was his opening act. And the day of the show it was announced the Scorpions were being added as well. They were still hardly known here then and my friends knew little about them. They blew even Nugent away. In fact, they were first up, and after AC/DC came out people were still chanting for the Scorpions. Bon Scott told everybody "Fuck the Scorpions, yeah!" :lol
Nugent was arrested at that concert too. He shot a flaming arrow across the stage during "Great White Buffalo". This was of course a fire code violation, and just before the Who concert tragedy in Cincinnati; so we still had festival seating. So we were at the rail and saw the cops handcuff him as soon as he left the stage.
All my friends bought Nugent or AC/DC shirts, but I bought a Love Drive tee. I still have it. It really doesnt fit anymore, butI've still got it, and its in pretty good shape.
I also have a Moving Pictures tour shirt. Its pretty "thin" fabric wise now. This of course was eons before I ever befriended the guys. When I saw them in Dayton ,Ohio that year I never dreamt then I'd be friends with them later. :lol
-
That is real fuckn cool...
:hat
-
Hmm, there are a few.
My DT Simpsons and flaming apple shirts are definitely up there.
And Steven Wilson's latest, cause it glows in the dark.
And this: (https://f0.bcbits.com/img/0000598927_36.jpg)

I have literally hundreds and basically live in them - working from home , they're my work uniform ;D
I'm currently wearing my favourite DT shirt - the 20 year anniversary album collage shirt (Black Clouds and Silver Anniversary) , yesterday it was a Mindcrime shirt, the day before that Dokken : BFTA :D
In general ...............I have a ridiculous collection of official Van Halen shirts but my favourite may well be one of the knock off jobs sold outside the front of US gigs back in the early 80s' As an example

I'm still looking for the Metropolis 2000 Jersey ever since mine was lost to the depths of abyss of an EX girlfriends closet (probably shit-canned by now). Then I'll once again have my favorite band shirt. Someday... I will find it.
-
Both of my Scale The Summit shirts. They were both based on songs from Carving Desert Canyons. Giants and some other one with a guy standing over the raging tides under the cliff.
-
This one always gets some stares.
(https://pad.indiemerch.com/i/7/5/7572630677.jpg)
And I don't generally like shirts that are just the album cover, but this one gets a lot of "Whoa man that's an awesome shirt"
(https://cdn.acfrg.com/i/0_0_fit_ffffff__png/ACfrG/productpics_fullsize/1/194152a.jpg)

Somewhere in storage I have the official Octavarium shirt from the Score show.
Other than that, my favorite concert shirt is the new BTBAM shirt with the owl on the front.

I've got a Megadeth 'Peace Sells' shirt from 1986- I inherited it from someone who was moving. I always loved it because it was much smaller than all of my other size extra-huge shirts that I used to wear all the time. But it is unfortunately now, still bigger than I really care to wear. And the neck is sort of stretched out on it, so it's been a long time since I've worn it...but I love it so much I can't bring myself to get rid of it.
-
Hmm, from the past, I had a Bill Graham Presents Staff shirt from The Who 1989 Tommy tour, that had the four members portrayed as cartoon dogs, but that got lost in the ages. My current favorite is the Stolen Babies shirt I got when they opened for Firewind and Turisas...

My favorite has to be this Katatonia shirt:

If they're still selling booty shorts, you have to get a pair, so we can match :yarr
EDIT: Just got this bad boy in with the new record, definitely one of my favorites, the album artwork is just so damn NOICE.

Of my collection:
That Haken one that's posted above.
A dredg shirt I own, with the clouds from El Cielo
A brown Shadow Gallery shirt with the cover of Digital Ghosts on the front and the tour dates of their 2010 tour on the back.
Those are almost the only ones I wear anymore, although I occasionally have a Spock's Beard tee with the cover of BN&DS, an Opeth one with the cover for Ghost Reveries and an Anathema one with the band members on the front and the track listing for Weather Systems on the back.

I really like my Riverside tee, not a typical band shirt:

-
Still quite pleased with this one:
(https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTAwMFg3NDY=/z/29gAAOxygj5Siafd/$_12.JPG)
Extreme's Punchline Tour shirt, 1995. Yes, that's Mike Mangini 2nd from left.
-
(https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTAwMVgxMTAz/$(KGrHqNHJFYE916((ciPBPoZRO5Gt!~~60_1.JPG)

And also a Frost* shirt which says "Keep Calm And Mellotron" on the front and "Careless Prog Costs Lives" on the back.
I also have that Haken one, in fact I need to get a replacement as its been worn a bit too much what with it being my favourite band shirt.
my runner up is either this ziltoid one:
(https://images.esellerpro.com/2903/I/129/62/lrgome_omhdtzt.jpg)
or this Paul gilbert one with a massive robot on the front (couldn't find pic online so I'm afraid you have this grainy pic of yours truly)

I used to wear and own alot of band shirts especially Maiden but not so much anymore. I do wear this from time to time though:
(https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1260x709q90/853/u7im.jpg)
Do I need to explain why?

That shirt reminds me of the intro tape for Cheap Trick on their '11 tour opening for Aerosmith:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAD-ME2TYtg
Skip to 2:17. NSFW language.

Possibly this:

Some people I've talked to hate it, but I've always loved it.
I also really like my Dream Theater cartoon characters shirt.

Sadly I don't have that shirt anymore.

Believe it or not, out of all the Rush tees I own, this one's my favorite...so much I have more than one pair of it!
(https://u.rockthisthing.com/image/380/380/RUORTEEORG036_000.jpg)
Another favorite of mine is the cover art for Sunn O)))'s Oracle EP and apparently Steven Wilson has the same shirt as well...
(https://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/_/51018141/Steven+Wilson+RED.jpg)
These are several other favorites of mine...

I don't have a pic of the shirt but that's the design. It was their very first shirt back in 2008 so it's great to wear it to shows and talk to them after since they realize I've been listening to them since pretty early on.
-
Not a big fan of band shirts since they are so crazy expensive, but this shirt is all kinds of awesome, and it was my first IM show.

I don't really enjoy wearing band shirts as much as I used to. One reason is that I got tired of explaining myself in every day, random public settings:
Random Asshat: "What's Dream Theater?"
Me: "They're one of my favorite bands."
RA: "Oh...what kind of music is it?"
Me: "Metal." (I never bother trying to explain "prog." It isn't worth the effort).
RA: "Oh...you like that stuff?" Or, "Oh wow you actually listen to that headbanging shit?"
Me: "Yup." And trying (rather unsuccessfully) to not roll my eyes at them.
Plus, most of the band shirts in my collection are size extra huge, which was fine when I was going through my grunge phase in the 90s and pairing them with JNCO jeans and flannel shirts, but I don't dress that way now. And most "girl" style band shirts are pretty lame- not to mention the fact that they usually don't fit me properly anyway.
Plus in recent years I've discovered that I'm a really a fan of "V-Neck" style shirts. When I wear a normal style t-shirt I feel like I'm being suffocated most of the time.
Plus, I'm now in my 30s, and I feel like whenever I wear jeans and a band shirt I still get treated like I'm a teenager. At my job, we're not required to dress nicely, but I've found that just wearing jeans and a nice shirt garners much more respect than walking around in some Iron Maiden shirt or something with a lot of skulls on it (and again...cue Random Asshat conversation).
The unfortunate thing is that I hate clothes shopping and I can never seem to find shirts that I actually LIKE, so I'm still stuck wearing stupid t-shirts most of the time. Oh the perils of finally accepting that you're becoming an adult and actually wanting to dress like one. :( (Please nobody let my mom know this. This is a battle 20 years in the making and I refuse to admit defeat. :P)
-
The last time I got to wear band shirts was prob 10th grade. Until the past year or so they just weren't big enough. Since I lost weight, all I want is band shirts. 20 years of not being able to find ones that fit has created a monster now they finally do. I love the looks I get when I have on some horrific image shirt. Makes me feel like I'm doing it right...
:hat

I am your ultimate revenge ;)

I don't have too many band shirts, so my favorite would be my DT 25th Anniversary shirt. Really like the ring with all of the album covers incorporated on the back.

One of my most worn t-shirts that one - nice blending of the album covers on the front too.

I had this one at one time....

I have that shirt too. I think it's in storage somewhere though. Been years since I've worn it. And probably wouldn't wear it now anyway since it's super huge. But I got mine for free from the band's merch manager, so :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Just noticed on the DT 20th Anniv shirt in the song list, the letter F on Two Far is the wrong font.

Just added these two. Had them both in HS 20 years ago...
