Good Idea for Your Band’s Next T-Shirt

T-shirts are high-margain swag that do well with audiences.  They’re also important for promotion. Convince someone to wear your logo in public and you’ve got a fan acting as a walking billboard.

But in the end, a t-shirt is just a t-shirt.  Is there something more that could be done to enhance their value and their usefulness to both the artist and the fan?

Asteroids Galaxy Tour has come up with a good idea.  They sell t-shirts with artwork on the front and a tracklisting of the current album on the back.  The tag on the inside of the shirt features a QR code good for a complete download of the record.

Here are a few more ideas on how bands can expand their advertisting base.
