NOLA Jazz Fest T-Shirt Gallery

Music festivals are a great place to see all kinds of t-shirts. One takeaway from this year’s Jazz Fest is that simple one to three color prints and distressed prints really are what people are wearing now. Practically the only elaborate multi-color prints we saw were the Jazz Fest shirts. And the only people wearing the current year’s…
