I have had this hoody for years. In 2007 I painted a small, stylized X on the front pocket, and a hide recycle symbol on the upper left arm. When I got my ticket for the October 3rd, 2010 show here in Vancouver however, I did this to the back to commemorate the event. If I wear this outside, it is guerrilla advertising. If I never wear it outside, it is a commemorative item I will cherish for the rest of my life. (Yes that is my 57 year old backside in the shot. I get such shocked looks when I turn around with all my face lines! LMAO!)

Thanks all.

@ LunaSlave: My friend who took the picture immediately posted it from her phone to YoshikiOfficial on twitter to show him so he, at least, will see it. lol

@ mC: I drew the lettering guidelines with a ruler then the letters freehand in pencil before filling them in with indelible ink Sharpies. It took bout an hour and a half, and smelled very sweet for about 48 hours. Oh, and I was a little 'ink drunk' for a couple of hours after as well. lol

@ darthchilli: I used to live and work in downtown Van until 2009. NowI live out in Cloverdale, in Surrey, but I do get into Van.City Ctr. on occasion so maybe you will.  ;D
