Sorry about your guys ordeal, interestingly enough I've always felt Quentin lifted much of his style from the Beastie Boys, not that that is a bad thing, just the opposite, he's one uncompromising artist.
I had about 2 dozen incredible vintage rock and roll T-Shirts I really, really prized that my dad threw out from a closet I was storing my junk at in his apartment. I must of spent 100's of hours scrouring the racks at second hand stores in the 90's to find them. One of them was a Springsteen '73 east coast tour, another was a DEVO shirt with Alfred E. Newman, fuck they were priceless all of them. The only one left was a Rolling Stones "Tattoo You" tour shirt. He thought they were shit I didn't care about so I left them there. I left them there because he's a major hoarder and felt they'd be safe.
I just shook my head and mumbled, and am still mumbling today 10 years after. Probably better to WAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!
Which reminds me, for a brief moment Seattle
had an XLarge store... The Beastie Boys always have the finest in gentleman's furnishings.
Sorry, I know how it feels. I'm a huge collector of paper
ephemera and have close to 20,000 postcards from 1890 to the mid 70's (mainly the 30's 40's and 50's) plus old schedules, tickets and posters. I haven't been collecting for the past decade, but man when I did I gave it my all.
