This awesome concert tee is for the Rollins Band from their stint in Australia in the late 80s. The shirt is from the Overworld Tour in 1989, which was launched the same year as their second studio album, Hard Volume. This tour was during the early years of the band, also known as the first edition, which was when the lineup consisted of Chris Haskett, Andrew Weiss, Sim Cain, and of course Henry Rollins. Rollins was already well-known among the punk rock scene for having served as the lead vocalist of the seminal punk band Black Flag from 1981 to 1986.

The Australian tour was launched through the independent record label Waterfront Records, and the opening band was an Australian hardcore group off the label called, Massappeal. Waterfront worked with Sub Pop and licensed some of their recordings, which allowed them to handle the Australian releases for groups like the Rollins Band, as well as Nirvana, L7, and Tad. This also wouldn't be the last time the band took a trip to tour down under. A 1990 performance by the Rollins Band in Sydney was recorded and later released as the live album Insert Band Here.

Fits like a modern unisex adult Extra Large. This shirt is distressed with fading, bleach spots, and small holes throughout, see pics. This shirt is short, please check measurements.
