The person said it was 15 bucks (little man, lol), and had all the pins still attached.

I saw Danzig at the Blue Ridge Music Festival summer before last. He looked rough but sounded freaking amazing. Played right before Slipknot which was also freaking awesome!
notabadkid92@reddit
Wow, I saw then in '91!

My Danzig story was passing on that show for the first tour at the old 930 club in DC because the ticket was TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS,
Regrets, I have a few.
notabadkid92@reddit
I feel sad for it. Where is its person?
Bad-Tiffer@reddit
I had a leather jacket I sold for a 5-strip of acid and $23 when I was 16. The $23 went to pitch in for three nights at the Super 8 by the Oakland Coliseum for a Grateful Dead show in Jan of 1993. I never made it into the show, but I was homeless back then, needed a place to stay, and REALLY thought I was gonna get a miracle!
SuzIsCool@reddit
$15? No way. That's the price in a small rural town, if it was LA or NY, it would have sold for a lot more!
Velouria91@reddit
I left my jacket at work in 1992 and it got stolen.

Honey! Where’s my old punk jacket? I can’t find it!

MajorMiners469@reddit (OP)
Oh gawd. I didn't even think of that.
Competitive_Damage23@reddit
Did you get it???
MajorMiners469@reddit (OP)
No. It was someone else's find. Lucky duck.
Competitive_Damage23@reddit
Lucky for sure
InebriousBarman@reddit
Put that shit in my hand.

Put that shit in my hand! If you don't got that dough, then you owe me, owe me, owe!

Somewhere there is a man hunting around the house for his prized jacket while his wife is claiming to have "no idea" where it could have gone.
Valuable_Caramel_371@reddit
Yeah, I was gonna say, there’s a spirit with that jacket

On the last day of my senior year of high school, I threw my jacket to one of the freshmen kids as I was walking out. He was just finding his way into the world of weirdo punk kids. It was passed down to me, so I continued the tradition. I like to think it's still out there somewhere.
Professional-End8306@reddit
I really, really like this story. That is some quality microfiction.
MrXero@reddit
OpIvy and Danzig on the same jacket?! This person would’ve been my best friend.
AugustiJade@reddit
And ZERO/Spitfire pins! So a skater with great music taste.
justlkin@reddit
Definitely not two bands you'd normally expect to occupy space on the same jacket, but yeah!
Unstab3l@reddit

No-Bee6369@reddit
I can smell that jacket just by looking at it.

People with battle jackets do not give away their battle jackets. Grieving families give away battle jackets after their owners are deceased.
djtodd242@reddit
We should have a battle jacket thread/post. I've still got mine, it comes out once a year for leather care and once for wearing.
HotTrash911@reddit
Mom sent mine to Goodwill while I was in the Army.。°(°¯᷄◠¯᷅°)°。
narvolicious@reddit
Yeah man, it made me sad to see this. Each and every detail on that jacket has a story behind it. The shows and adventures that jacket must’ve gone through… damn.
MajorMiners469@reddit (OP)
That was my first guess.
Glitterbomb4274@reddit
First thing I thought was 🎶Mother🎶 Love it.
MajorMiners469@reddit (OP)
Have you heard the Danzig/Shakira mashup? It's on youtube and when I need a laugh, it always hits the spot.
Glitterbomb4274@reddit
Damn you! Now that insane mumbling and Shakira are stuck in my head! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glitterbomb4274@reddit
Not yet, but I will now.

Man, I lost my leather back in the early 90s. Got locked up in LA County jail and someone stole it out of my property before I got released.
MommaBear354@reddit
Please tell me you bought it???

crone_Andre3000@reddit
That jacket is worth like 5k - dude put in the work
marshallkrich@reddit
Dammit, Spitfire pin! Someone died, or someone's wife made this jacket leave the house.
SubstantialPressure3@reddit
That is a time capsule.
Equivalent-Stable347@reddit
That, my friend, is badass

SignificantToday9958@reddit
I have the same open road branded jacket with airbrushed artwork on the back.
MajorMiners469@reddit (OP)
Can I see it? I love the old airbrush stuff.
CorgiCommercial8962@reddit
I would pee myself if i found that at a thrift for 15 bucks
fujidust@reddit
That’s bitchin. I would have bought it.
MajorMiners469@reddit (OP)
Right!?!
