We are proud to launch a brand new hand numbered D.R.I. design to benefit Spike Cassidy and his family! The legendary guitarist was diagnosed with cancer a few years back and has put an enormous financial strain on him and his loved ones. This is where you come in. By purchasing this exclusive hand numbered shirt, 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the Cassidy family towards doctor, hospital, and procedure bills. We live in a time when a thrash luminary such as Spike can’t afford to battle a vicious disease on his own. With the help of an embracing punk/thrash/hardcore community, our hope is to provide relief of an overwhelming financial burden so Spike and D.R.I. can continue to bring the loud for years to come.
