Where are the Ladies Shirts?

[Merely Space]

I noticed several shirts for sale last night that weren't yet on the backstage site. Unfortunately, I wasn't looking for ladie's stuff, so I didn't really pay attention. But I am pretty sure I saw at least one ladie's shirt.

 

Incidentally, I saw a LOT of women at the concert last night. It still wasn't 50/50. But it was probably between 60/40 and 70/30.

Ok, I checked out the shirts at the Milwaukee show last night. I did not see any shirts at all that were specifically for women. Some of the shirts were pretty damn cool though. My suggestion is you buy a white one and wash it with a red sock. ....sorry, couldn't resist.

UPDATE: I went and ordered two men's shirts from the Backstage Club. One came in a size small and I'll just alter that one but I picked up another that came in a size XS which actually looks like it might be a perfect fit judging from their size chart. We'll see.

I took a couple of mine to the lady who has done all of our alterations for years. She did a fantastic job of not only shortening it, but she took a lot of the excess fabric off the sides and moved the seams so it's a more tailored look. I now no longer look like a box on legs when I wear these. She charged me $6 for both. Well worth it, so if there's a design I MUST have in the men's only, I'll do the same.

That's nothing. Guess I won't worry so much about sizing then.

She's always been a little less expensive than most (heck, wedding dress alterations were a steal, and most tailors rip you off big time on anything wedding-related). She could charge 3X what she does and not lose a customer, because she's awesome!

That's exactly it -- I need the ladies fit, not just a smaller boxy fit. Blech.

I often go into the kids clothes and buy their large, which works well for me. I found the earring thing interesting. Is that how Rush want to dress their female fans? "Here are some thongs and earrings... now attend our shows!" Maybe throw in some Starman pasties or something and I'll do it. starman pasties   the interwebz is full of patterns and techniques for feminizing a manshirt.   here's one OhMyStars   and syd11's idea was kewt too.   if i had 1 swag wish it would be for toenail polish the same color as Neil's various drum kits. maybe even with little bitty decals   they could market it as "warpaint"

Here ya go ladies!

 

I bought the only Rush "girly" shirt that I could find at the merch booth for Skylar at the New Mexico gig. She's our 9 year old and she actually loved seeing Rush for the first time.

 

She is the next Rush Generation of Analog Kids! "Subdivisions" is her favorite Rush song.

That's the shirt I bought-in a slightly larger size. Super soft and comfy. I'd post a pic of it on but it's in the washer now.

 

Here is the merch booth, I posted this in the other thread. What looks like a black t-shirt is actually a tank on a black t-shirt form. I saw some ladies wearing that at the show and it's pretty nice looking, if a bit pricey.

 

I think whoever hung the merch up put the baseball style in the wrong place, though that is a shirt I may end up picking up later, I think it's guys sizing.
