Not sure why I got the urge to post this, but here it is. I collected Alkaline Trio shirt from 98 - until about a year ago. I never paid over $20 for a shirt. Most of them were purchased at shows, but a lot were bought online (cinderblock/ebay/any other merch site.)
I lost a lot of interested when Heather Hannoura Gable wasn't the main artist for these shirts. Although I never was really sure who the artist was, just assuming.
With that being said here is my Alkaline Trio shirt collection.

I know there are Alkaline Trio fans on VC. So, I hope someone might appreciate these as much as I do.

I do!
 
Let's share our stories!
 
Like last week, a woman was asking her husband who Jack White is, and the guy was just like 'Jack Black's arch enemy' hahahaha.

My current collection! Not the prettiest, but it'll do. The 2 squares on the top left are for my 10"s and 7"s. The 2 squares at the bottom right are for box sets and random stuff like posters etc.
 
On the top of the shelf are 2 more boxes. One is another box of 7"s and the other is a box of tapes (about 20).

Man, this was hard. No order, except the first one.
 
relient K - two lefts don't make a right... but three do
From The Tracks - Recover
Satanic Surfers - Going Nowhere Fast
Håkan Hellström - 2 steg från paradise
mewithoutYou - brother, sister
The Lawrence Arms - The Greatest Story Ever Told
As Cities Burn - Hell Or High Water
twothirtyeight - Regulate The Chemicals
Lagwagon - Trashed
Samiam - Astray
 
...maybe. Left out:
Craig's Brother - The Insidious Lie, The Broadways - Broken Star, The Wonder Years - Suburbia, Half Hearted Hero - Defining. Refining., Denison Witmer - Philadelphia Songs, The Weakerthans - Reconstruction Site, and every Propagandhi record.

In no order, really:
Beloved - Failure On
Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake...
Bush - Razorblade Suitcase
Elliott Smith - Figure 8
Everclear - Sparkle and Fade
Explosions in the Sky - The Earth is...
Helmet - Aftertaste
The Offspring - Smash
Radiohead - The Bends
Weezer - Blue
That was hard...

Look what was also wrapped with the records! It's a sweet Honda patch. This thing is so cool. It ups my cool factor by at least 25%. Once I find a cool jacket, this is going straight on it and I'm going to ride a wheelie into the sunset.
 

 

 
And that's everything! Thanks so much to my secret Santa. I had my suspicions when I saw the LA Kings card, and they were confirmed with the other clues about Living in California and loving Lucero and Rancid. 
 
Thanks Ian Rees! You're amazing!
 
But wait! as I was moving the box off my desk, I thought I felt something else in there...
 

 
What could be under this sheet of cardboard?...
 

 
HOLY SHIT ITS AN ANIMAL STYLE DOUBLE DOUBLE AND A STRAWBERRY SHAKE FROM IN-N-OUT! This is the best Christmas ever!
 
(maybe I skipped a couple pictures where I found the In-N-Out giftcard in the envelope and drove over there for lunch, but this seems way more magical!)
 
Thanks again, Ian!

Wahhahhahahaha!!! Loved your video dude!!!! That eerie music made it intense!

Got my package a couple days ago. Couldn't wait to open it. I've been sick and my throat hurt when I opened it, but I made a video! Sorry if its hard to hear me, my throat was hurting pretty bad that day. 
 

 
I didn't get any hints besides the tracking number. I looked at that and it came from California. Did some cross referencing and I am making a complete wild guess that "irxnmaiden" was my SS.
 
Whether I am right or now... THANK YOU! I needed those two records and am very excited to own them now! 
You really made my day! and my birthday is coming up so its a great early birthday present too! 
Thanks so much!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
*Final Note* I'm sure someone will say something so... I have one record framed. Its a shitty pressing that doesn't play correctly so I threw it on my wall. Sue me. haha

Well, my video is shitty but here it is. I realized after I recorded I needed to brush my hair but whatever. Spinning the record I didn't know right now and it's pretty damn cool. Not sure who you are SS, but thank you!

So my girlfriend and I took a video of me opening my gifts 2 nights ago at her house:
 

 
 
My secret santa accidentally put his name in the return address. So knowing what state they are from and their taste in music I'm thinking it is perhaps...
Rezqua???
 
Anyway whoever it is thanks so much! I'm excited to dive into a new band and all day today I've been obsessed with that Closure in Moscow song!

TIOS is far and away my favorite Thrice album. Artist is a distant second then Identity Crisis and Vheissu after that. Never really cared for anything after that nearly as much as those first 4 records.

The Illusion Of Saftey made my 14 year old self a way better guitar player. Endless nights of mastering The Beltsville Crucible really did me in.

LOL. Will wait when it hits a store.

This! that and TAITA are their prime, Vheissu is their "grown up" record, after that they went downhill.

Over 100 people are dead and you're worried about xenophobia?
