Negative Orange World Tour 2011 T-shirt #361339 12/20/11 03:25 AM Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 16,441 Felton, California pmbuko OP shareholder in the making OP pmbuko shareholder in the making Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 16,441 Felton, California This really needs to happen, guys. I spend about 15 minutes putting together the front of the t-shirt, but by no means should this be the final design. The shirt rear should list all of the hometowns of the people who send money in for the first run, plus Dwight, ON. My idea is to use black silkscreen ink on an orange shirt. The stylized orange and the text will be where the black ink is not -- taking the "negative" literally.

Pity I don't like orange shirts, but it goes with the territory. Unless we were to take orange's opposite color, blue, and run with that. Last edited by Ken.C; 12/20/11 03:31 AM.

I dig it, and it would take the negativity further.

I'm okay with either color, really. I have a bright orange Cake shirt that I think looks good on me, so I'm good with orange, but I can understand the broader appeal of the blue and the reasoning behind it. Definitely love the idea about the list of towns. I think Minus Citrus would be a good fake music label name to put in small print somewhere.

Where's my T-shirt? As I was reading Ben Folds' biography on the Amazon store, I found that the bassist in the Ben Folds Five, Robert Sledge, went on to form a band called International Orange. I'm thinking our band can still kick his band's butt. Interestingly, International Orange is a color used in the aerospace industry to set things apart from their surroundings, similar to safety orange, but deeper and with a more reddish tone. In summation: Safety Orange International Orange Negative Orange Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.

Apparently they have hired a bunch of ex-strippers to dance in the vid and will call themselves the Orange Peelers. Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.
