LFA Tour Shirt Review (MSSS Series, Part 3) + BONUS POST

Hi friends! So sorry about this being a day late, I completely forgot about posting it yesterday! To make up for it, I've added on a BONUS POST that might have to do something with Matt T and the Earthquakes, but I'll get to that in a bit...

Today we're looking at the Looking For America '16 Tour shirt as the third installment of the Merch Store Shopping Spree series.

The first thing I want to say about this shirt is how SOFT it is. The material is a bit thin (you can't see though, don't worry) and made of 50% percent polyester, 25% cotton and 25% rayon. Like other Relient K shirts, it features a tear away tag. These little angels are probably the best invention EVER.

The back lists all the tour dates between September and November of 2016 You can still buy these shirts online at relientk.com and they're only $10!

Now, if you're interested more in the bonus post than me rambling on about a shirt, here we go.

About a week ago I remembered how Matt Thiessen opened for a show at City Winery back in December, playing some solo songs. After a quick check from Google and YouTube, I found some (if not all) the songs he played at the show. Here's the list:

1.) DUDE
2.) SPORTS!
3.) MAN OF STONE
4.) MOTHER'S TRIUMPH

I couldn't find any others, so I'm not a hundred percent sure if this is all of them, but still, there's something interesting about this list.

I went to BMI's website, did a little digging (If you don't know, BMI is a company that does music publishing, licensing, etc.), and found a list of all the Matthew Thiessen and the Earthquakes songs that are registered, but the ones he played aren't on the list. He does, however, have 12 songs registered, most of which I've never heard of before. Here's the list:

1.) CALENDAR THE ENERGY
2.) CLOUD OF SMOKE
3.) DUMPED FOR A MODEL
4.) IF I'M DREAMING
5.) IT'S A BROKEN HEART
6.) NOT WITH YOU AND ME
7.) POISON IVY
8.) TAKE IT EASY MATTHEW
9.) TIME STAND STILL
10.) VOLLEYBALL GIRL
11.) WOOL OVER YOUR EYES
12.) WWW BROKENHEART COM

This information is exciting, to say the least. There's enough for a full album here, and seeing as the songs he preformed aren't on BMI's repertoire, that could mean they're pretty new.

If you want to check out the list yourself, you can find it by clicking HERE. I could honestly get lost for hours looking at that website.

And hey, don't forget to check back occasionally, as I will keep you updated about this (and Goodbye Dubai) whenever I learn something new!

Don't blink,
