The Petra Zone

Hey, we all know that Schlitt Happens – and here’s your chance to live it loud by purchasing the new John W Schlitt authorized “SCHLITT HAPPENS” t-shirt!
All profits from the sale of this shirt go directly to John Schlitt Ministries, a registered non-profit organization designed to help raise funds for other non-profit groups, churches and causes (see http://www.johnschlittministries.org).
The black logo will be printed on a olive green t-shirt – you choose the size! The cost is only $25 per shirt, including shipping (within the USA only).
Pre-sales of 10 shirts or more are needed before an order is placed; after I collect the pre-sale orders (and payment!) I can then place my order. It will only take 2 to 3 weeks to receive your shirt following order placement.
Send your payment of $25 to PayPal address [email protected]. Make sure to state your size – and be sure to include your shipping address.
Pre-order your shirt now – and share this message with other Schlittheads! The sooner we reach the 10 shirt minimum – the sooner you’ll get your “SCHLITT HAPPENS” shirt!

The watermark will not be on the shirt.

Something I've always wanted (and I'm sure others on here would as well) is a retro More Power to Ya or a Not of This World era tour t-shirt complete with album cover on the front and tour dates on the back. I'm not even sure these were ever a thing back in '82 or '83, but they sure would be cool today.

Like!!!

Hey guys - there's no going back and Bob is not gonna put out money for Petra tshirt. If you want one - you'll have to do it yourself.

But we're talking about SCHLITT HAPPENS here - with the profit money going to a real non-profit cause (http://www.johnschlittministries.org).

The last time any kind of Schiltt Happens tshirt was made (back in 2002 or so) they sold out immediately. Remember this?

Am I the only one who thinks this shirt is a horrible idea?? Using Schlitt's name to make a few bucks when most people will see this shirt and 'hear' something else.

Horrible testimony and idea. Hopefully John speaks up against this. I find it very hard to believe he ok'd this.

I don't like this idea either, at least not as a publicly advertised deal. If a few friends were doing it on their own, then it would be different. I'm trying to write all of this as nicely as possible. This is a ministry, with all the scrutiny that goes along with that. I'm not trying to be critical, it's not an easy job to raise money. But let me put it this way: If you can't wear it to the concert at a church, then what does that say about it? There are other arguments that have been made and to be made but I'll just leave it at that. I politely wish that the folks in charge of this would reconsider.

GREEN LIGHT. I'm getting this one made because I know a guy.

It's a joke that can't be told again, it's cheesy to say the least.

Hmm...but that photo is from their Never Say Die album. If it had tour dates on the back, could your friend make two?

That secret dies with us, dihigo. But if I can get more non-Schlitty ancient band photos, I could conceivably do more.

Personally, I'd rather see an album cover on the front than a bunch of hairy dudes. I'm just sayin'...

Sue is probably right, It’s easier to just make our own Schiltt and Petra shirts. I think I would pay for a MPTY or BTS one though.

How is this one? We could also do it in Black!
