> Hello, I have a black t-shirt w/ the art work from Aspects of.. >filling the front. The friend who steered me to it now says it *may* be a >(local)bootleg. Anyone [here] ever heard of it? Is it white ink on a black shirt with "Kate Bush The Sensual World" in gold running vertically down the right? Does it look anything like this: http://miso.wwa.com/~vickie/vickie/chris.html ? I bought two of these shirts in Kansas City. As far as the shirts being "bootlegs"...there *are no* legitimate Kate T-Shirts for sale. Apart from the few promotional shirts that EMI and CBS distributed at the album release, and the "stealth shirts" sold at the last Konvention. (Is anyone else annoyed that these shirts lack the words "Kate Bush" and have no image of Kate on them? These shirts are a *very* clear indication (to me) of Kate's battle with depression.) Its hard to consider a product seriously "bootleg" when no legitimate product exists. I'd love it if Kate/Novercia would authorize someone to make official Kate shirts. But I have major doubts that they will happen. We *could* make completely legal shirts, by purchasing rights from one of the *other* Kate photographers like Guido Harada. In spite of the beliefs of record company legal departments, a "public figure" only has rights to the images they own, and if you take a picture of a public figure in a public situation, you have a perfect right to exploit that.
