A collection of ten T-shirts and a set of hooded tops featuring various motifs from Tom Robinson and TRB’s artwork over the years.

Will fit Teen, Young Adult and Adults.

All items are recolourable, but the logos aren’t.

As there’s no Teen Male hooded top with the basic pack, there’s a Teen Male Tracksuit top instead.

Please also find a collection of three poster pictures for your Sims 3 game.

The poster pictures use a mesh with many thanks by Yarona at Sims Modeli, so you do not need any stuff packs for this to work – it’s all base game friendly.

Tom Robinson is an English musician and writer famous for two singalong anthems – ‘(Sing If You’re) Glad To Be Gay’ and ‘2-4-6-8 Motorway’.

The song ‘Glad To Be Gay‘ has been recorded many times with updated lyrics concerning contemporary gay issues (ironically a song originally protesting against intolerance towards gays now has lines protesting against gays intolerance to others).

‘2-4-6-8 Motorway‘ (part stolen from the sports chant ‘2-4-6-8-Who Do We Appreciate?’) is almost the opposite. In the 70s, truck driving was very much a heterosexual male preserve with a ‘jack-the-lad’ culture, and the song celebrated that side of a trucker’s life compensating for the long unsociable hours (casual sexual encounters with lady hitchhikers and soft drug abuse in order to stay awake and alert).

His final major hit, ‘War Baby‘ concerned East and West Germany, and the senselessness he felt for the same nationality being pitted against one another for ideological reasons.
