Glenn Danzig's Tips for Finding Tight Shirts

• Nardwuar: So he went to all this length doing it! I guess he was wondering... where do you get tight T-shirts? Do you, like, on tour, do you ever go to like the women's section of a thrift shop and look for tight fitting shirts? How do you find those tight fitting shirts? How do you find those tight fitting shirts, Glenn?
• DANZIG: Um, if you want a tight fitting shirt, the easiest way is if you're like a medium, you buy a small. (laughs) It's pretty simple.
• Nardwuar: But how about finding some uh-
• DANZIG: Your friend should invest in some braincells! (laughs)
• Nardwuar: Well how about really small ones? Have you ever gone to like a K-Mart and tried on a kiddie sized shirt, or one of those Incredible Hulks ones? Does that work well?
• DANZIG: No, it doesn't work well. As a matter of fact, um, Jay from Orgy was like into, while we were doing the mixing, he was into like wearing shirts that were like... eighteen sizes too small. (laughs) I mean, I remember me and Eerie trying to make like, uh, Garbage Pail Kids T-shirts fit us, you know, we were trying to get the largest kiddie size that there was, but they just didn't fit! (laughs)
• Nardwuar: How did you, did you buy them? Or were you trying them on right in the K-Mart? How did you-
• DANZIG: Oh, yeah, you had to buy them. So you try and buy a kids large or extra-large, and try and you know, fit into it, but it just wouldn't work and it would just start ripping up the sides or whatever, so I would just save it for my collection or whatever.
• Nardwuar: They didn't let you try them on in the store or anything then, eh?
• DANZIG: No, but it wouldn't work anyway because then if you rip you'd got to pay for it anyway.
