For Nick Lowe's Quality Holiday Revue 2014 tour, a special t-shirt was made that features all of the artists scheduled to perform at all of the tour dates - Nick Lowe, Los Straitjackets and Ian McLagan
With the passing of Ian McLagan, it was decided immediately that all profits from the sale of the Nick Lowe Quality Holiday Revue Tour t-shirt would be donated to The Artist Wellness Program (AWP), a charity that Ian McLagan supported.
Demand for the t-shirt has been so high, that it sold out during the first half of the tour and proceeds from those shirts will be given to AWP. Yep Roc was asked if it would sell the shirts via its store. In honor of Mac, and the charity he supported, Yep Roc has agreed to sell the shirt and donate all profits from the sale of it to The Artist Wellness Program.
This limited edition t-shirt will only be available for sale via the Yep Roc Records web site until January 5, 2015
In order to maximize profits from the sale of this shirt, Yep Roc will be printing only the quantity ordered during the time of this sale. This is the best way to guarantee the largest donation possible from the sale of these shirts. As a result, t-shirts will be printed after the order deadline of January 5, 2015. T-shirts will be shipped to customers during the first week of February 2015.
