    Makin’ some Merch

    After Nathan showed me the ropes, I snagged a cheap, old-school thermal press off the internet and am crafting some merch. This first run is focused on OG durability and style: Gildan heavy cotton T-shirts with the primary band logo on the front (back has band name printed across the shoulders). More designs, sizes, colors,…
