Hey Rikard, do you know yet what merchandise you'll have at the autumn gigs? A new shirt, for example?
Offline
We will have a new shirt, yes! Its design will be from the new album! We're planning to make a whole lot of different merchandise later on, some crazy stuff such as underwear (panties with a beardfish motif, anyone???) but it won't be just yet...
Cheers

I would love to own a simple shirt with the Beardfish "bearded fish" on the front and nothing more. Any chance something like this is in production?
Offline
Sorry, not exactly that design... it's rather simplistic though!

One I will buy in a heartbeat would be that picture of the beardfish from the cover of SiT Pt. 1 and the sane day or the picture of the band in front of notre dame (the one that was on your my space not too long ago, before it was in the new album inner cover)

I found some stuff that is from SiT pt. 1.

Any updates on this? With the weather getting colder it's time to find a new hoodie, and I would love it to be a Beardfish one!

I just got my Beardfish t-shirt in the mail today. Time to show some prog pride!

And I got this one the other day: http://www.cafepress.com/+baseball_jersey,4794599
I only wonder what's the advantage of the arm length for those shirts.
Anyway, I'll sport it proudly in spring.

Is this stuff at Cafepress official, or is someone else making money out of Rikard's intellectual property?

Hehe! It's not even MY stuff... The artwork on the café press site was made by a woman named Hanna. She made for us way back in 2002 and someone in the band put the stuff up there on café press back then, i think it was Stefan Aronsson (former keyboardist/flutist) and we never bothered to take the stuff down... But no, we don't make any money off of it. If I remember correctly the shirts are good but their prints are really bad
Cheers - Rikard

Maybe they've improved - I bought some Tangent shirts (official) from Cafepress in 2008 and the print quality was ok (and they've survived quite a few washes!)

Simply solution: print some nice shirts and I'll be the first one to buy one.

I wanted to write "simple", of course...
And I'll be reporting about the print quality. Might take some time, though.
