Cinder Block wants to help you expand your beloved concert T-shirt collection. The merchandising and licensing company got its start in 1989 on a Berkeley sidewalk where co-founder and president Jeffery Bischoff set up a card table and hawked manually printed T-shirts to students and tourists. Today Cinder Block's client roster numbers more than 300 artists, including musical acts Radiohead, Green Day, the Pixies, and Weezer. In addition to traditional apparel offerings, the company provides merchandising services for concert tours. Cinder Block's venture, Cinder Block Ticketing, was created in partnership with Baseline Ticketing to offer online ticket presales. It was acquired by Transom Capital Group in 2009.
