I'd just like the tour shirts to be plain cotton. I got a tour shirt one time that looks great, but it's made out of that more stretchy-cottony type of material. Not so good for my body type. :) However, I have the blue cooleybird ringer shirt that I love. More shirts like that one!

That's my favorite tee. I also dig the black tee with just DBT on the front.

I can't believe nobody has suggested the most obvious thing. And I'm glad they didn't. :D

Well, I am not sure about the rest of you, but I tend to loose items at shows (so far one shirt (would of been two if Mr. Jay Gonzalez didn't see me drop a shirt in Charleston~thank you), a camera and a phone)...and I try and support the bands when I can...so I think the idea of a reduce, reuse, recycle kind of DBT cotton or nylon (shopping) bag would be AWESOME!! I mean, look at me, I got my hands full :D ...sportin Patton, my new hat, Glossary's CD and shirt, two flasks, a poster...(this was night one at the Peel this August)

I think DBT (logo) and Cooleybird pint glasses would be great for my collection, or stainless steel coffee mugs or thermos, cool Trucker fleece blanket... :D

Sounds like these would be "store" items...they would be bulky for travel...I could use another key chain, I can't find my other one...SEE...loosin' items!!!!

sure it would! pretty much every band that sells the sbd's also still allows audience taping.

but do they allow them to share/trade them? I know (for instance) since Todd Snider started selling his SBD's, you can't find any independently sourced recordings.

I am a fan of higher quality tshirts that are a little more fitted. The two I have from shows are like kites, very wide and very short. I would definitely pay more money for those half poly half cotton shirts. More sticker options as well.

Limited edition 7" vinyl available only at the shows, live songs, rare songs, whatever. Something for the people who get out to see them.

Hell, just repress the original 9 Bullets single - those mixes are different than what was on the album.

Isn't a completely different take? I thought this was the version on the single.

Every once in a while, we kick around ideas for DBT merch. What would you like to see at the merch table? I can't promise these ideas will happen, but I can pass the suggestions along to the appropriate people.

Jonicont and I have been asking for a while now for record tote bags. I think they had these years ago but they didn't sell well. Since we're now at a point where a lot of people are using their own bags for grocery shopping, and vinyl has made a dramatic comeback, perhaps now would be a better time.

The winter knit hats with DBT on them would be great, especially if they were available at Homecoming.

I'd love to see the plastic glasses with the Cooleybird patch on them come back. A zip up hoodie that is not in black would be cool, too, something in blue or green, maybe?

What else do people want to see?

If you guys do a run of socks check out Swiftwick socks, http://www.swiftwick.com/ I've been wearing their stuff for over 5 years and still have a few of the original pairs from my first purchase.
