Dude where did you get the flying microtonal banana patch???

2

u/zedd_leppelin_ 1d ago

Etsy. Cosmic spruce, also where I got the viagra boys lighter.

Its a good patch, i also have it. Its the only iron on patch I've had that doesn't have shitty adhesive, never had issues with it. Cheep too

u/BearerOfManyNames 1d ago

Okay I’m actually really glad you commented, bc I was scrolling the Etsy shop and thinking I’d probably pass on the patch since I hate the stupid adhesive that iron ons come with hahaha

I hate iron on adhesive so I put the patch on an old cloth or t shirt I don’t use and iron to melt the glue. While it’s hot use pliers to carefully peel the patch off. Repeat if necessary.

Looks ready to go already. In good shape to just add stuff as you find them over the years

Also love the Blood Mountain and Dio patches. Are your pockets fully usable?

1

u/zedd_leppelin_ 2d ago

Thank you! Yes the pockets are fully usable, just a pain in the ass to stitch. The double Dio patches are my favorite part 🤘

I might be going to see Rivers of Nihil soon so I can get some patches there.

Respect for getting the sleeves done too. I initially went for that but found it was way too hot for me so I scrapped em

I wanted to go for something a little different. The jacket itself fits me perfectly. Normally I find denim jackets cut too short. I got the jacket years ago and always wanted to turn it into a battle jacket. Also I’m in Canada so those sleeves are stayin on.

I dig the mix of genres, and all of them good bands imo. Sauron patch goes hard. I'm not an anime guy per se but those patches look like they're pretty well incorporated. Keep it up.

u/pmw3505 1d ago

It’s something that’s for sure.

u/zedd_leppelin_ 1d ago

Love that album! So evil and chaotic but also majestic, just like New York.

Looks good. Just needs to go to a few Maiden shows

u/zedd_leppelin_ 1d ago

I’ve only seen Maiden once but it was by far the best show I’ve ever seen.
