I would totally be into this if the Crane Wife didn't suck outloud.
Yeah, it's a great design, and the Decemberists are still one of my favorite bands, but I really really didn't like the Crane Wife at all, so I'm at odds with this T.

Thought you might wanna care/bitch at me about it.

One of the stupidest things to ever happen to manhind.. or the world in general: bitching at people over the internet.

I will, however, express my opinion. The design is not directly linked to the song, so, say you buy this shirt and then wear it out on the street, no one that doesn't use threadless is going to look at it and say "The Decemberist, The Crane Wife, 39:88:04 long, written and produced by _____ and _____". It's a good design, one of my favorites as a matter of fact. I'm not the hugest fan of The Crane Wife myself, but i'd definitely buy this shirt! I vote buy.

Meh. It's your opinion. If you don't like the shirt then don't buy it. Simple as that. No need posting a blog about it.

seriously, why would you post an opinion? gosh, this is a blog forum, a place that isn't safe for outside thinking/debate

I'd buy it except for the army colour. Pah.
It's not the design I wanted to win but I'm glad it got printed, I liked it a lot.

I liked the Crane Wife, in case you wanted to care or bitch me out ;)

I thought the Crane Wife was pretty darn good. What's WRONG with you, FREAK?!

the crane wife has its moments. I love the song yankee bayonet, which is illustrated here. The Decemberists sing other songs about soldiers, like The Soldiering Life, they're mentioned in Here I Dreamt I was an Architect, and I think The Legionaries Lament. The skeleton girl reminds me of Leslie Ann Levine, though it could be another song.
I'm not going to bitch at you. I bought it cuz I liked it, I love the Decemberists, and I'm going to their concert in March and I wanted something to wear to it :D

Er, I don't even listen to the Decemberists, haven't heard a single one of their songs, bought I bought this tee the second it was printed because I think it's such an awesome design.
