Let's start by 'The Overlook' t-shirt. If you watched The Shining or read the book, you know it comes from there...

He also wore a t-shirt with the text "VAMBO ROOLS OK". This is the name of a compilation by Scottish band The Sensational Alex Harvey Band (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sensational_Alex_Harvey_Band)

The t-shirt is easily found online and can be purchased e.g. here (https://t-shirtat.com/shop/vambo-rools-ok-shirt/)

What is the meaning of this shirt worn by Robert Smith?
There should be a bowling pin drawn on it

Honestly, I would only wear such a t-shirt if I really liked this tribute album for the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, otherwise: why bother?  :?

Well that's one of the few songs I know by Alex Harvey! (And yes, there is a vid somewhere of the Cure performing a cover of it back in 2002.)

Sorry, but really: wearing a t-shirt advertising a band I hardly know, just because RS wore it, seems daft to me!

I agree, an exception could be that it looks nice.

I only heared the live one back then, played twice in Switzerland

In Riga I was standing close to the spot where Roberts drink were mixed....corona beer with orange juice, yes and I will never even try it...

Ha ha, that sounds strange indeed. I heard that he was enjoying orange juice spiked with red wine during the "Wish tour", but I wasn't quite sure if I should believe it...  XD

Told you he likes the movie "Eraserhead" here:

 :)  :happy

My personal advice: don't wear the t-shirt without having watched the movie (it is a very weird, disturbing film)!

It has been reported he wore a "The Wire" themed t-shirt ("Omar Comin'") in Columbia. ("The Wire" was an excellent tv series and Omar was a bad-ass character.)

In Atlanta he had a Rolling Stones t-shirt on (cover pic of the album "Goats Head Soup").
The next night (also Atlanta) it was The Beatles ("Magical Mystery Tour").  :cool

Curious now about The Wire...

Post by: Ulrich on July 05, 2023, 11:28:20
Please keep in mind that "Los Pollos Hermanos" was also featured in the "Breaking Bad" spin off series "Better Call Saul"!

Quote from: dsanchez on July 04, 2023, 15:58:59Curious now about The Wire...

It's different to others, because to me it seemed to be a 99% realistic view of police work, drug gangs, the dock workers, the town hall, a school, a newspaper (depending on which season, the focus lay on something else than before, with obvious links to what happened beforehand).

"Here's Why The Wire is Considered One of the Best TV Shows Ever Made":
https://movieweb.com/why-the-wire-best-tv-show/

QuoteThe Wire carried parallel narratives about police and drug dealers, and eventually incorporated stories about teachers, dockworkers, politicians, and journalists. For five seasons, The Wire explored some of society's most broken organizations, including the criminal justice system, politics, education, labor unions, and the media.

It can be argued that the show's been named the best series of the 21st century because of its relevance still in today's society. Diving honestly into what is wrong and still currently an issue in the police system, The Wire represents realistic and pressing problems, making it more than just a TV show. It focused on avoiding easy victories, preferring to show corruption, failure, and decay in society.

The Wire brought us characters who we couldn't help but get hooked on. From Idris Elba's menacing Stringer Bell to Michael K. Williams, who threw himself into his badass character Omar with courage. Omar became a legendary character, one whom even President Obama has raved about, with the haunting little phrase "Omar comin" practically signifying the beginning of the 21st century, and Williams plays him brilliantly.

Dominic West is essentially the protagonist as Jimmy McNulty, and injects the role with enough fire to transform him become an arrogant, disrespectful, and troubled yet extremely capable detective. Although, the show's greatest contribution might just be in introducing a slew of rising actors, including the excellent Michael B. Jordan, who has developed as not only a brilliant actor, but is making his directorial debut in the third Creed.

Alexa Fogel, the show's casting director, also defied industry norms by assembling a diverse cast that included stage actors, promising newcomers, complete novices, and even some of the real cops who served as inspiration for certain characters.

https://reelrundown.com/tv/Why-The-Wire-is-still-the-best-show-ever-made

QuoteThere is an old saying in the TV zeitgeist that has long circulated among critics and fans—"There are two kinds of people: Those who think The Wire is the best show ever made, and those who haven't seen it yet."

It's a cop show, but it isn't. It blatantly ignores the traditional rules of television—i.e. traditional notions of morality—in an effort to create something bigger and more meaningful than just another cop show.
