Rockstar 101: Rule “Numero Uno” – Do not wear your own bands t-shirt or band merch. That’s equivalent to Kobe Bryant wearing his Los Angeles Lakers jersey to dinner. Here’s Part 1 of some rockstars breaking the law…
Steven Tyler – Aerosmith
Michael Jackson
Dave Mustaine – Megadeath
John Bonham – Led Zeppelin
Axl Rose – Guns N’ Roses
Johnny Rotten – The Sex Pistols
Ozzy Osbourne & Geezer Butler – Black Sabbath
John Lennon – The Beatles (seemingly joking around)
Paul McCartney – The Beatles (For Charity designed by daughter Stella McCartney)
Click below for Part 2,3 & 4:
The Black Sabbath one, that is Geezer Butler and Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi is the one with the Coca-Cola and a cigarette to the right of Ozzy with the chest hair. Also Ozzy is picking Bill Ward's nose.
You forgot probably the most famous and unrelenting wearer-of-his-own-band’s-shirts — Joe Strummer! At some point it seemed like Clash shirts were the ONLY shirts he wore. And, dare I say, he was probably the only guy that could pull it off. The rest of the band wore Clash shirts on occasion too. I never had a problem with it…
I\’ll be sure to add Joe to part two of the wearing your own shirt offenders.
Thanks,

Really? “Megadeath”? Come on guys. This isn’t some cookie cutter trendy bullshit, it’s one of the major pioneers of thrash metal who’s influence spawned thousands of bands. I don’t care if the article is older than I am, I’m here to complain, and complain I did.
Otherwise, cool article.
