Fight for your right to be retro....
Here at TruffleShuffle we have an excellent range of music t-shirts. We've got designs featuring Blondie, Blink 182, Kiss right the way through to Guns N Roses and The Who. But one new design that caught my eye the other day isn't very obvious as a music t-shirt.......
Its a t-shirt that is worn by Ad-Rock from the Beastie Boys in the video (You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!). Its a Physical Education t-shirt for a New York high school, Stuyvesant High School. Fight for Your Right is one of the most popular Beastie Boys singles and was their fourth release from their 1986 debut album Licensed to Ill.
This t-shirt is for fans of the more subtle retro look and will get you that 'knowing nod of appreciation' from other Beastie Boys fans.
The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 14!
Happy weekend everybody - The sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hooray, the sun has got his hat on and he's coming out to play! I do like the idea of the sun wearing a hat but why does he need one?!
There are a multitude of cinematic pleasures available for your viewing pleasure this weekend. Like an ocean full of fabulous flamboyantly coloured tropical fish, we're merely bobbing gently along with the current sat comfortably in one of those inflatable chairs with the cup holders - in one hand, sipping through a straw a lovely cold margarita with an umbrella in it and in the other a fishing net ready to pluck out the beautiful retro movie goodness. Olympics! What Olympics?!
Whatever you get up to this weekend enjoy yourselves and have a happy retro weekend :-)

Guest Post! The Caped Crusader: Yep it’s Batman...
I was VERY tempted to name this blog post âna na na na na na na na na na na na na na na naaa Batman!â because as you have probably realised by now thatâs how mature I am. But thereâs something about superheroes such as Batman that bring out that childish side to you. We all know that the idea of a man getting superpowers after being bitten by a radioactive spider or a man going around dressed as a bat is quite ridiculous yet weâre still enticed and get stupidly excited about this fantasy world.
Perfect example of this is of course âThe Dark Knight Risesâ which is the third and final instalment of Christopher Nolanâs Batman trilogy.
Iâve never seen so many people- of all ages-get so excited by one film. It is definitely a buzz that only certain movies bring. After all, superheroes are amazing. Growing up I used to love watching superhero films such as Superman and Batman. Even TV series such as Wonder Woman and donât laugh...Captain Planet.
Batman is the one superhero that really takes me back to my childhood. Forget the films; I always preferred Adam West and Burt Ward as the Dynamic Duo in the TV series. I can remember watching the TV series during our summer holidays on Channel 4 around 1.30pm! At the time they were so gripping and totally believable. I never questioned the convenient gadgets (there are 100 flights of stairs and the lifts not working...oh wait we can use the Batjet which is conveniently placed in the Batmobile) or the fact that nobody could tell that it was Bruce Wayne as Batman. Who can forget the âBam! Crash! Wallops!â?
It was this cheesy side of Batman that I preferred growing up and despite watching most of the Batman films my allegiance was always to the 1960âs caped crusader. But then Christian Bale happened.
Man heâs beautiful. But forget his beautiful face for a second if you can...it was his dark and suave Batman that got me gripped. Christopher Nolanâs Batman was a far cry from the ones I was used to- and I liked it!
