Bring Back the Fireside

This is our first collaboration with another company and we chose LOOP APPAREL as our maiden voyage! We are partnering up with them tonight (FRI July 31st) for a great outdoor party. We hope to see you there!

Awesome design and awesome colors.

I love the Fireside! I can remember having my first Old Style when I was 14 waiting for Slapstick to take the stage. Ah yes, the good old days…..

Alkaline Trio brings back old memories of a packed car all air drumming and singing along. Must have been a confusing sight for the other drivers, but those were the days.

I just put the Rise Against video on for ‘Swing Life Away’….they whole video takes place at the Fireside. Oh man do I want an Old Syle really bad right now. I’m buying this shirt now.

I was very honored when Loop Apparel asked me to design this shirt. I was never able to catch a show at the Fireside. Thanks for giving me this opportunity.

Love this shirt! Brings me back to cramming into a packed car to catch Apocalypse Hoboken at the Fireside. Great design, too.

Great shirt Lou! Love the colors and the drawing. I will definitely be bustin’ a medium on this hot bod.

Has anyone noticed the new features we have quietly added to RIPTapparel.com? :D Great work TJ!

Great shirt love the colors!! Insta-buy!

The way the ‘bowling sign’ is drawn is very sick! And I just went to bowl at the Fireside back in June….it just isn’t the same.

I just love this artist! This shirt is amazing!

Lou Medel is back in action!!!!

The new website features are the new hotness.

Lou, you continue to share your wonderful artistic gift so beautifully. May God continue to bless you and your work!

thanks @overnrude :)

Yes! What an excellent shirt to use as my newest jizz rag! Score!

Hey – glad you guys got some bigger sizes….they look awesome on and am getting plenty of positive comments – Gotta love a big man in a custom t-shirt. Keep on kicking butt

@scott – Gotta post some pics man!!!

Thanks for your kind words everyone. Special thanks Loop and RIPT Apparel for making this possible.

Today has been a darn good day but I can’t wait for the party tonight. I’m getting out of work in 41 minutes and I’m going straight to get the kegs. Word.

Great shirts guys – Keep em coming!

Yessssss, the Fireside was the BEST! I remember seeing Dillinger Four there, twice…then Strike Anywhere, and many more. Awesome memories

Great design! love the homage to a Chicago landmark in the scene!

Yeah, I am totally getting this. I would love to see a series of shirts based on punk rock monuments like this.

Lou, first you amazed us with Frantropolis and now this! We can’t wait for your next masterpiece. We wish you tons of success.
