Finding a nice Grateful Dead T-shirt is like finding a pretty lamp.
First of all, I have a lamp shopping rule. Well, more of a representation of my lamp buying experience. 1) 98% of all lamps are hideously ugly. 2) 1.8% of all lamps are gorgeous. . .and also utterly out of my price range. 3) 0.02% of all lamps are lovely and within my price range.
This experience. . .er, rule turns out to apply to shopping for Grateful Dead T-shirts. That's nothing new, but it seems to be getting worse. Seriously, Tie dye makes my brain bleed. And I don't need a giant ship representing the Ship of Fools from that song. I do like the song, but I don't need it on a T-shirt. Finding a subtle and kind Grateful Dead T-shirt is enough to make me weep. I'm just saying. If I see another Dancing Bear I'm going to scream from here to high heaven.
Here's an example of a Tiffany Studios that makes the cut. It also costs $ 195,000. See, too expensive for me but oh so gorgeous. I am not including an example of an ugly lamp because I don't want to look at one. The same goes for the ugly T-shirt.
In closing, I would like something subtle with quiet colors that displays my adoration of the Grateful Dead. I'd also like the above pictured Tiffany Studios lamp but hey, one cannot have everything in life. Plus, if I had an extra $ 195,000 lying about it wouldn't get thrown at a lamp. Especially as it would probably damage the shade.
