3.003: Are there any KLF T-shirts available?

There are some bootleg KLF T-shirts designed, printed and sold by list members, but there could be more - why don't you get one printed? Indeed a Shag Shag Shag one is in production (see below).

There are no official KLF T-shirts still available. According to the final info sheet any merchandise unsold a month after the retiral was burnt.

There was a long sleeved white T-shirt, with the letters 'KLF' in black on the front, the pyramid blaster on the back inside a circle around which is a list of KLF Communication's bands, i.e. The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, The JAMs, Disco 2000, The Timelords, The Liberation Loophole and The KLF, and a smaller copy of this on the left sleeve. There were two similar white short-sleeved also, one which was identical (but nothing on the sleeve) and on the other the back and front were reversed. Copies of this are being sold by: Marshall Dickson $10.00 + postage

There was another white short-sleeved with yellow 'Shag Shag Shag' graffiti writing on the front. Copies of this are in production by Tim Richards <100720.1557@compuserve.com>

There was a black long-sleeved one with white "It's Grim Up North" on the front, which was also available in short-sleeve (as see on a dancer in the Chemical Brothers' 'Setting Sun' video).

There was also a white short-sleeved that had the T-shaped speakers, on the front in red and black, with TRANCENTRAL written over them, and MU MU written at the bottom of the back. Unfortunately the writing is swallowed up by your armpits unless you stand as a T too, and it only reads 'ANCENTR'.

Pete Robinson had some printed after the '92 spilt which were black, long-sleeved. The front was a twist on an old "bpm 120 Who Killed The JAMs" T-shirt, reading "bpm 23 Who Killed The KLF?" on the front, and "KLF RIP" in large white letters on the reverse. These have now been deleted.

In the US Dave Parker may have a few T-shirts left that are "XL only, black with white text. On front upper left breast, there is a side shot of the stacked speakers logo (scanned in from the "MU" CD), and around the image, is a circle of text that says "The JAMs K FoundationDisco 2000 Space Bill Drummond Jimmy Cauty The KLF The Timelords" with nice nifty bullets in between each name. On the back, it has a large traditional stacked speaker shot (like the UK 12" of LT2T...but no neon effects), and above the image, is a large "TRANCENTRAL" logo. Very nice, I do believe. The few who have purchased them have been quite satisfied with them.".

"I wore the T-shirt at the Lollipop music festival in Stockholm, Sweden two weeks ago. I constantly got comments from people that saw the T-shirt. Comments ranged from people wanting it to people just tapping me on the shoulder and saying that KLF is a great band. And one very drunk man wanted to discuss the inner meanings of the Illuminati! books with me :-)"
