"I remember when Perrier got really fashionable in Australia about 30 years ago.  Met my then landlord in town for lunch and thought I was a bit posh drinking out of that fancy green bottle ... except the skin tight PVC pants, sneakers, spikey red hair and leopard print gave me away as a complete fraud." 

- Mum, 2010

I was going through some old photo albums last night and I came across some great photos of my parents. I'll post more in time, but for now, here is a handful of photos of my dad wearing cool T shirts.

Dad at the Sydney Big Day Out in 1994 wearing a Breeders T shirt. Mum said she hated his sunglasses at the time and was happy when he lost them. Why mum, why? They look like my Karen Walkers!

Wearing a Lucky Strike shirt. I love this and I wouldn't mind tracking one down for myself. And that's me in his arms.

Wearing a Horrorfice shirt. His base in one hand and me in the other, typical. This was taken at band rehearsal but I have no idea why he brought me along. Dad always said he and mum exposed me to loud music so I'd learn to sleep through it when I was a child...

And here he is wearing a Died Pretty shirt  and following me around the pool. I don't think there are many photos of dad in the 90s not wearing Cons...

Dad when he was young, wearing a sick tie die shirt with skulls on it. Nice
