Free: KaTe sweatshirt and rec.music.gaffa t-shirt

[Stephen Williams]

Cleaning out a closet, I ran across the two shirts shown in the attached photos. Both are available for free (just reimburse the shipping cost, TBD). If I get one taker, they'll get both. II I get two takers, one will get the sweatshirt and one will get the t-shirt. If I get more than two takers before the end of January, I'll draw names from a hat or something.

The sweatshirt (which is huge -- XXL at least) has never been worn. I don't recall how I obtained it -- probably via a record store promo, because the left sleeve has "EMI America" on it. The rear of the shirt is printed the same as the front. If anyone can explain why the number on the shirt is 59, I'd be interested. (KaTe was born in '58.)

The t-shirt is size XL, worn once. It was from a project within rec.music.gaffa back in the late 80s, possibly as late as 1990. (Somebody can probably remember who created the shirts.) The back of the shirt has an enlarged handwritten message from KaTe.

Email me directly if interested.

Stev0 made the Love-Hounds T-shirts. The note on the back of the shirt was written to me by Kate when I went to an autographing in Tower Records in Manhattan. I don't remember offhand the exact year, but it was several years after the one that was in 1985, which I also went to and ended up chatting with John Carder Bush for a while. He told me all about the film Brazil, which I hadn't seen yet, but when I did see it, it became my favorite movie of all time. I wish I had seen it before John regaled me with its wonders.

Does this count as a direct email? Sorry, still a google groups noob :P.

Hey Steve, I`m new to  this group, 

and I am astonished at  what you are giving away for free!  -   I suppose Kate Bush fans are general really very nice,  at least the ones in this forum ;-)

I am new here.  unfortunately,  I technically seem to be unable to write a personal message to you (in reply to your giveaways).

And I can see your full private e-mail address.

Perhaps anyone can help.

Regards, Andi

Andreas,

In spite of me mentioning an end of January deadline, I ended up giving the shirts away at the end of December. I'd only gotten two requests and figured that was it. Sorry...

There’s nothing more enjoyable than coming in at the very end of a post thread like this and then finding that your anti-spam has moved 7 recent love-hounds emails quietly off to the spam folder. Oh well, :-) hope they went to a good home.
