T-Shirt Tuesday: Have Heart 10.17.09 T-Shirt

This HAVE HEART T-shirt was made to commemorate the band’s “final” show on 10.17.09. It was an homage to a Ten Yard Fight T-shirt (and “final” show promo stencil) that had been released a decade earlier.

The 10.17.09 was taken straight from the stencil that Bridge Nine had used for Ten Yard Fight in 1999 (with a little number swap to make in ‘09). Chris Wrenn cut out the stencil for the Have Heart info and spray-painted it onto paper.

150 T-shirts were produced, each with a hand-numbered woven Bridge Nine label sewn onto the sleeve. The Bridge Nine logo & shirt size information are silkscreened on the inside of the T-shirt's neck.Check it out in the archive HERE!

This week, we’ve dug out AMERICAN NIGHTMARE’s first Bridge Nine-made T-shirt. Printed in 2000 and designed by Jacob Bannon (Converge, Deathwish Inc.), this T-shirt was an expensive one for the label to print at the time, as it featured four colors of screen-printed ink on the front.
