Hmm maybe we might fall into this category a bit huh! There always seems to be the person who just can't help themselves but show off just how much they love the band more than you by showing up in every single item of clothing and accessory the band has ever made. Good effort but perhaps a bit much for our taste.
Rock on with the help of Amplified Vintage!
Like your music collection, Amplified Vintage is forever changing and bringing loads more cool stuff to the table!

With the Sun just starting to peep it's little head from out of the clouds...well sometimes, we're feeling all Summery already which has sent our minds awash with thought's of the coming months and all that the good weather brings with it. One of the absolute highlights of any good Summer is of course.... Festivals (and well BBQ's of course).
Heading out to a big music event without even just one band t-shirt should frankly be considered a sin, okay okay so maybe turning up to the world biggest electro festival in a classic rock t-shirt might be a bit odd, BUT for the most of us attending the likes of Glasto, Reading and Leeds, Download, T in the Park etc, a humble rock t-shirt is the perfect partner in crime.
To help you guys find you perfect style this season, we've been working hard to bring in some amazing new designs that are sure to tickle your t shirt taste buds. Check out our latest collection from vintage t-shirt powerhouse Amplified Clothing....
Well...they're back and still at it! Yep The Rolling Stones have just kick-started their 50 Years and Counting Tour just last week in LA and as far as we can see, they've still got it!

Yet another blast from the past! Black Sabbath are also still at it with their Nourth American tour kicking off in late July and some impressive UK dates booked in for December, there's just no stopping good music!

New Music T-Shirts That'll Rock Your World!
Now as much as we love retro tees featuring all our favourite characters, films and retro icons, one of the most popular and never out of fashion must-haves is the humble rock t-shirt.

Hitting the stage right now we have some of the most iconic designs around featuring some pretty big names in the biz. Check out our latest collection...
With a front man like Iggy Pop, any live Stooges event would always have been highly entertaining and full of shocks and surprises!

This wicked new The Velvet Underground T-Shirt celebrates the American rock band and features the artwork from their first album, The Velvet Underground & Nico. Originally released in 1967. The recoding of the album was financed by Andy Warhol and took place during his Exploding Plastic Inevitable multimedia event tour. The artwork was designed by Warhol. A highly influential and experimental album, touching on controversial subject matter, this is a must have for any music fan.
Get Tony Stark AKA Robert Downey Jr's Black Sabbath T-Shirt As Seen In The Avengers Movie
In 1970, British heavy metal band Black Sabbath released a song called Iron Man and although it was not inspired in any way by the Marvel Comics armour-clad superhero, it was an obvious choice for the soundtrack of the 2008 movie starring Robert Downey Jr and can be heard over the closing credits.
Taking the connection even further, Tony Stark AKA Downey Jr is permanently sewed into a Black Sabbath T-shirt when he's not wearing his Iron Man suit in the Avengers Assemble movie and after numerous requests, you can now get the very same tee right here at TruffleShuffle.com.
This wicked Black Sabbath tee '78 Tour design has the real look of an original, vintage tee and is a bargain for any Superhero fans at just £19.99!
Apparently, Robert Downey Jr was so taken with the tee that when asked....
Was there one particular prop he decided to keep?

Check out Look Magazine's top tips for how to style your band tee!
- Forget new indie bands, you've got to go old school for this look. T-shirts with classic logos from iconic bands, such as Guns N Roses or The Ramones are the way forward.
- Stick to the theme its grungy, not girlie. Add skinnies by day, or tuck into a body-con mini by night, and always pair with undone hair.
- Let the T-shirt do the talking and keep accessories simple
