The rock and roll tea towel



You know you've reached a certain age when you go to a gig and come away with sore feet and a tea towel. Yep, thanks to Nick Cave, mid-lifers will never have to wear a band t-shirt again. By adding tea towels to his range of tour merchandise, Cave is doing us all a favour. Because, let's face it, men of certain age look better in a classic shirt or v-neck sweater than a moob-enhancing rock t-shirt and ladies, looking try-hard or mutton-ous is not what we're about. The man's a genius (but we knew that anyway).

I've got a secret fetish for tea towels and a tea towel combined with Nick Cave sounds like the gig souvenir of my dreams.
Moobs? Love it! xxx

Perused to the bottom. Found your blog through an Emily Chalmers search. I was reading through my Fleamarket Style and wanted to see if she had a website I could snag some bodacious photos for my blog.
Enjoyed your blog. Btw, I work with a colleague, fifty something, who has long grey hair. It looks fab. It's in great condition. Saw a gal the other day, fifty something, whose hair was a female version of frizzy, poofy, Johnny Cash. Love Johnny Cash, but didn't like her hair, not in great condition. A highly relative issue. xox ~ Alexandra
