If you’ve been to a concert or festival, then surely you’ve seen attendees donning pins. Usually placed on a hat, but sometimes on various other articles of clothing or accessories, these pins allow fans to connect with their favorite artists. Beginning during the live music culture with the Grateful Dead, they let fans express their personality, interests, accomplishments, humor, and much, much more. The stories behind wearing the pins are often as unique as the pins themselves. Obviously, big artists have many pins made in their fashion. Lorin Ashton is an artist who has hundreds of pins made reflecting the culture of Bassnectar and Bassheads. WRR has selected 15 of the most high-profile Bassnectar pins, and compiled them all together. These pins are all rare, exquisite, and respected works of art in the Bassnectar pin culture, and are ranked in random order, not by importance or any other factor.
