Here is the Shirt of the Moment of Elke A. in Germany, Leipzig, Völkerschlachtdenkmal Open Air for Neil Young + Promise of the Real on July 20.

Elke A. (longtime, loyal TW reader) flying her colors with a Thrasher's Wheat 20th Anniversary Shirt.

Danke Elke A.!

(and thanks for photo Ralf @ rusted-moon!)

Thanks so much for sending! And so awesome that you got a magnificent Neil + REAL concert.

And thanks to all who have sent photos so far from tour. We'll have more in the coming days to feature.

Also, if you recently ordered a shirt on the 2nd round of Thrasher's Wheat 20th Anniversary Shirts, here is the latest update. The order has been compiled and submitted to Geoff & his shirt folks out in Hawaii. Shirts have been ordered and die tying is commencing. It will take a few weeks to complete the printing and dying process. The shipment to TW HQ and then back out to you good folks. So hopefully we'll have these out to folks in August.

ps - got a Shirt of the Moment shot?! Send it to us at thrasher@thrasherswheat.org

Richie, Accidents happen, mistakes are made. I got my shirt & we've seen pictures of lots of people who got their's. If you really did get ripped off I'm sure it wasn't by Thrasher.

Hi Thrasher is there anybody there, it`s me Richie, are you REALLY RIPPING ME OFF or is it as Peacelover Doc says, a mistake.

I am going to email you again at thrasher@thrasherswheat.org or am I wasting my time. I probably am because I have posted 3/4 comments and they seem to be getting censored.

Hi Thrasher, I have not received any communication/replies. I appreciate the work you do but when I get nothing back, my spam folder has nothing, it made me wonder what the hell!

I apologise for my comments but I simply thought what`s going on, maybe you`ll have to let me know via comments when you ship my T, you do have my details?

Thanks, I`m more than happy to apologise, peace and love, Richie.

Hi Richie,
Thanks for the note. Sorry for the big hassle here. Bummer on the spam folder business.

So just to be clear, we here at TW take very seriously any attacks on our reputation and will defend our honor to the end of time.

This reputation has been hard won for for over 30 years going back to the days of tape trading for blanks and postage stamps. Pre-file share days, we traded 100's of tapes with many dozens of tape traders and never had a deal go bad on either side. No lost packages in the mail or anything. Even with int'l mail.

Honor and trust runs deep in the trader camp.

And this tradition continued on into the Rust/HH/TW communities. This all we have at the end of the day -- our reputations.

As we see here, misunderstandings can be inflamed quickly. To use an an overused expression, stay calm and we will all survive. And thrive.

Happy harvesting. "The Loading Has Begun".

all is forgiven. all is forgotten. we move on.
peace

ps - a note on the TW Anniversary shirts and shipping delay questions.

We've always stated that round #2 of shirts would be likely completed in August. Please remember that each and every shirt is uniquely hand made. No 2 shirts will be alike.

While we are not a tie-dye expert by any measure, we do not that this is an exacting process of preparing each shirt, the preparing of multi-color dyes (we use over 6 colors on each shirt), the tie-dying, drying and post-production handling. And that's why these shirts arfe not cheap. This is a very special expensive cotton blend that has been identified as optimal for the process.

We are really trying our best to do this right.

We had almost 100 shirt orders in the 1st round alone. Nearly as many in the 2nd round.

Frankly, we are a bit exhausted. Often we're asked how we do it all and we have no idea other than we just carry on. We feel blessed and fortunate that we have the opportunity to review so much wonderful material. All of the CDs, books, magazines, videos, concerts and on and on.

Between the Neil side projects, our causes and passions, and our day and night "jobs", we lead busy lives. But, we watch out for the greedy hand and do what we can to shine a light and keep the flame burning brightly as we can.

So we try to forget it, any way we can.
We keep on rockin' in the free world.
rockin' in the free world.
in the free world.
rockin'
world.
