They seriously took this shirt off of the site because it was too offensive towards Def Leppard?
I ordered it a few days ago, does this mean it will be taken out of my order?

For those who dont "get it", Rick Allen, the drummer for Def Leppard lost his arm, and continued drumming

I think he lost his arm on a plane accident or something. It's harsh that people find it funny.

first of all, the truth is...they probably couldnt have a shirt with the band name on their shirts for sale...so they took it down "out of respect"
kaloyster
   kaloyster on Sep 23 '06 at 9:07am
I'm curious though: If they took it down, how come you can still order it thru the Stockchart section and still reflect on your order upon checkout?
Spantizzle
Spantizzle on Sep 23 '06 at 10:47am
yeah, I saw that, and the shirt was still in my order when I tracked it. btw, it was a car crash
jacob dehart
jacob dehart on Sep 23 '06 at 11:20am
Def Leppard called us! They were really sad that we had it for sale so we told them we would take it down. I guess I didn't take it off the stock chart page yet, I'll do that on Monday. So that means you have 2 days to buy this highly collectible shirt!

Def leppard are a bunch of fucking pussies, for lack of a better term.



This isn't insulting the band or the drummer, this tshirt if anything promotes the band as awesome enough to lose your arm for, and it starts conversation about how awesome their drummer is to be doing it with the added disability.

   staffell on Sep 23 '06 at 11:25am
so we have two days huh? I might buy it for collectable value

now im wondering if i should order one in each size

Also the environmental impact of rendering around 800 tshirts is pretty significant, given how much water goes into producing the cotton that's used by them all. I guess Loom and AA made THEIR money but still. Going to be a bit of a loss for threadless to cop and a huge waste of resources that could have been better used, just because a band that supposedly rocks wants to be all wussy about it.

I dunno, but if they have you're still part of a highly exclusive list.

I can't believe I'm even contemplating ordering it just because it's going to be rare.

They have taken some shirts off for copyrite issues. I think this is the first shirt taken off for hurt feelings though.
Aristarchus
Aristarchus on Sep 24 '06 at 1:44pm
I think since Threadless has decided to pull this, Crisco should sell his idea to Tshirthell.com.

yea i can think of a bunch of nice slogans but theyd be better suited for tshirthell

Do it fast, Crisco, before someone here snakes it out from under you.

so Def Leppard knows about threadless... Rick Allen will be keeping 2 eyes on the site from now on. (or 1 depending on whether he has both eyes, which remains to be seen).



I'm bummed I couldn't pick it up. It'll be worth a million dollars in ten years (which also remains to be seen).

Rick Allen lost his arm in a car accident on new years eve 1984. Interestingly enough, he was charged with spousal abuse after this, when he grabbed his wife by the throat in a airport. I'm not sure what this has to do with anything, except I used to be a big fan, until I heard about that.
