Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
See the Obama T-shirt slide show
Of all the Obama T-shirts being slung during the Democratic National Convention, it was the one above that stood out to me (and many of the people who saw our Obama-shirt slideshow). Designed by Denver DJ and musician Dameion Hines, it depicts Obama on the ones and twos, spinning the sounds of hope and change (or something like that). It carries the slogan: "Obama: That's My DJ."
Sadly, I never came across Hines's stand, so I couldn't snag the shirt during the DNC. But it turns out they're still available on Hines's web site, soundcollege.net. They're $25. Money well spent, if you ask me. -- Joe Tone
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way.

Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism.
