So did I - unfortunately I lost them all over time 
I used to save up so I could get the baseball tees at gigs - they cost about £16 even back then (some 25+ years ago).
I do still have my signed copy of Kerrang! though after we met them before a gig in Sheffield 
Eeeee I still remember my weekly trips to Leeds to buy lunch and a new heavy metal tshirt with my latest girlfriend at the time 
I was a gig snob - I wouldn't buy a tee unless it was at a gig (just so I could prove I was there).
I printed my own teeshirt in art class for the first gig - I thought it was the best thing everer!
Ahhhh, those really were the days.

Errr yes. Busted.
It was funny though - you knew you were part of a clan when wearing a gig tee at the next gig you were at. The people that had been knew you had and there was an unspoken respect (especially for kids like me as there weren't many of my age - I only looked about 12 anyway) that you were a proper gig-goer.
Made it bloody expensive though - tickets, teeshirts, trains (or lifts from parents then paying them to eat out whilst they waited for us). No idea how I (well my parents) afforded it.
