Obscure SPOILER thread - set lists, reviews etc

[Richard-Eastham]

I like to think I am a Sexy Northerner. I definitely qualify for the second part through place of birth and have been told more than once and by different people that I qualify for the first. So if/when that t-shirt appears in the PSB online store, I am buying one. And I will wear it in public. And I hope it starts conversations with strangers and will be disappointed if it doesn’t.

Let’s hope your sense of irony outweighs your conceit!

Yeah it's funny to think of wearing these song title t-shirts.
"Hey guys, I'm a ___" Young Offender, Fugitive, Sexy Northener.
Hey guys, I'm Jack the Lad.
It has to be deliberate, selecting song names that are applicable in this way.

Agree, it's definitely deliberate choice. I didn't buy the Young Offender t-shirt for this very reason. I did get a Jack The Lad one but it's "not really me." Meanwhile, the Sexy Northerner t-shirt has my name on it. Literally.

And of course,West End Girl and East End Boy. There’s a lot of scope for more titles. Your Funny Uncle? Positive Role Model?

The Boy Who Couldn’t Keep His Clothes On? But it’s just a thong with very small print.

or:
New London Boy
Boy Strange
Dancing Star
Euroboy
Flamboyant

etc. etc. etc.

It doesn’t fit that theme… but I’d buy SAD ROBOT WORLD at the drop of a hat.

[Vintage Youth]

Then there's I'm With Stupid, which is of course a song named after a t-shirt.

[Vintage Youth]

I'd wear Bolshy, Angelic Thug, I Want A....Dog among many others.

[DopeFiend]

Such a delight, watching the concert footage.
I'm very happy with how the two Obskur concerts went. Makes me proud to be a PSB fan.

Brilliant! Of course, and that track absolutely should be given its own t-shirt!

Yeah, I got that one and the arrow is pointing up. I had to explain the concept of irony to someone who asked about that shirt ("why would you wear this?")

One of the Crowd (instant buy!)

Brilliant. BRILLIANT. Attention, PSB marketing people. You should really pick this one up before the bootleggers do!

Can you imagine, PSB standing on stage staring out at a theatre full of One of the Crowds?

Does anyone know what font they used for the OBSCURE shirts?

[Richard-Eastham]

I'm not a typeface expert but the Cabazon and Gothicus fonts are close to that used for OBSCURE

[Vintage Youth]

My frlends had some Sexy Northerner t-shirts made in the font before they appeared on the stand in Berlin.

Does anyone have a dimeadozen Account ? I ask because one guy recorded both Obskur Shows in Berlin !

Thanks, I'm trying to retrieve them.
We do have continuous Youtube videos of the show, but these 2 audio-only bootlegs could be pretty good quality.
Will see if they respond to my request.
