I was very tempted by the lithograph. It would have been my second choice after the programme. I didn't get a t-shirt purely because I couldn't decide which design to get, I'd never seen such a choice in ELO garments! I wonder which was the best selling? Was it my imagination or was there a hoodie? Or have I just made that up? I also thought the t-shirts at Liverpool weren't just in black, I'm sure one was blue - I might have just made that up too! I think there might have been a hoodie and there were definitely yellow and blue t-shirts as I got the blue one but the ones with the tour dates were just in black. The sellers outside had an even better selection not that I bought any! I saw the sellers outside at Liverpool but steadfastly refused to be tempted. My money is only good enough for "official" items . How did they even get the shirts?

Sadly no, the one I saw had a shorter handle and a smaller logo. But that one is nice. This morning as I was leaving Liverpool I saw a chap with an AIYU t shirt on. Soon many more cities will be equally clad. I wish I'd got a shirt now :-( Was this the bag you mean ? Yes, that's the one! I remember the short handles.

Have been seeing quite a few of these popping up on eBay, all but one with an unsigned lithograph. Therefore, presumably Jeff only signed a select few of the vip lithographs and it was pot luck as to who received one in their bag? I went to the last night at the 02 with my fellow ELO-mad mate;we both think Jeff is a genius and worship the man. We didn't have vip tickets but I can just imagine the sheer level of envy, if one of us picked out a shiny lithograph personally hand signed by Jeff and the other one didn't!

Read these shirt are thin and cheaply made. They come from Ukraine, I wouldn't order one, not worth the risk.

yes they were like that .But it was the Bornrocker site. Are they the same or are the Ukrainian ones a rip off. BTW the official one's at the o2 were pretty nasty I think. Certainly when compared to my Hyde Park shirt.

On the subject of merchandise, ELO t-shirts - What is the fit like?
This is a question mostly aimed at the ladies here. Band t-shirts tend to be, wherever you go, designed for men. Whenever I see them they just have S/M/L/XL/XXL etc printed on them. I'm sure this is easy for the boys as their clothes mostly come in these sizes but what about the girls? Our sizes have numbers and even if we can match numbers to the letters the fit might be all wrong.
I know that on the ELO official site they are selling tees in both men and women's styles but the sizes are still S/M/L etc and even if you know which of those you are in the woman's style, what if you want to get a tee with a print from the men's section? After all, at concerts and in stores 9 times out of 10 they only sell the men's styles.
I would also like to expand the question out to include Beatles t-shirts. I'm sure there are a few fans here who have bought their tees too. What's the fit like for the ladies? I went into the Beatles store in Liverpool and there were literally tons of types and styles. They did have a ladies section but these were things like vests - not the exciting tees with sgt pepper on. There were walls full of tees aimed at men all with S/M/L on them, some in bags, some on hangers. I particularly wanted a Nelson Wilbury one but left without it because I didn't know what male size I'd need.
So, ladies (men too even!), please share your experiences with the fit of ELO t-shirts. Which style/print/type fits you best and which look terrible? It's a lot of money to spend when you can't even try them on.
