The arsenal of Megadeth

dancerjodiI don't own a Megadeth t-shirt, but they are one of my favorite metal bands so this must be rectified (its the same for Maiden, but I'll fix that next week).
I was going to fix this at Friday's show, but the women's style shirt is $35! Its cool:
http://www.fanfire.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/fanfire.woa/wa/product?sku=MDT39538 . But its $35. Given that I give myself a $50 'fun stuff' budget each week, that takes a big chunk out of it.
Other shirts they have include last year's:
Scorpion $20: http://www.fanfire.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/fanfire.woa/wa/product?sku=MDT36733
Explosion $15: http://www.fanfire.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/fanfire.woa/wa/product?sku=MDT37040
And, I'd be paying something for shipping on top of that.
The angel shirt *is* cool, but I think I'd prefer a baby doll. The image on the scorpion shirt is neat (and I do like that song), but So Far So Good So What is my favorite Megadeth album ever, and the explosion shirt goes with that.
What do you other metalheads think? If I go with the explosion shirt assuming $5 for shipping, that still gives me $30 to play with this weekend. It would mean I could also get the Delovely soundtrack from iTunes, and the new CVB Book http://comeinsidekitty.com/
I think I may have answered my own question. A metal shirt, music and a cool gothy kid's book is a much better deal than just a metal shirt!

Re: The feud
Date: 2006-09-26 05:48 pm (UTC)i never really could get my head around early Megadeth.
like,
they always billed themselves
as top shelf speed metal
and yet somehow
it was way slower to most everything else i was listening to.
politically aware is good, though.
i'm still struggling to find the right idiom,
but i've been pushing hard to get (lisp) onto more "meaningful" territory
in terms of lyrical topics.
we did one "relationship" song (that i'd already written)
but beyond that,
we're trying to keep the songs more about life or society
rather than the more typical (for me) "i'm so sad because you left me"
type of song,
which frankly are too easy to write and a bit of a cop out.
anyway.
enjoy the show!
