    There were supposed to be two trailers in Cincinnati but only one. Enjoy the day and get merch inside the venue. Thats what we did in Cincy and had no problems getting what we wanted. Maybe a 10 minute wait.

    You know, with 200 people in line and 3 older women working the merch truck, a lot of people could get a lot of free stuff if you want to lead some sort of rebellious attack for their tardiness. If you're as mad as you seem, it should be pretty easy if others share the same sentiment.

    In StL, I just wanted a couple stickers. I waited in the ridiculous line outside for about 15 minutes and decided to bail out figuring I'd get inside plenty early enough to get them.

    I got to the front of the line inside and was told that they had no stickers because they gave them all to the people in the merch trailer outside so I bought two of those shitty buttons instead.

    I went to two other stands after that and neither one had stickers.

    I'm not one to stand in merch lines for hours. I usually grab a tshirt at some point during the show and a poster after the fact and that's about it. But with how big of a deal merch is for a lot of PJ fans, you would think that it would be run much better than it is. There always seems to be issues at every show....doesn't make sense to me for a band that has been around as long as PJ has been around.

    The band is playing back to back shows. According to Google Maps it's a 6 1/2 hour drive from Tulsa to Lincoln. I imagine tear down after last night's show wasn't done until 1am and then all the trucks hit the road to get to the venue early this morning. Taking into account having to then unload and count today's merchandise before bringing it out to the trailers, you can forgive the merch crew members (just a couple of people) for being tardy. Hell, they could just have easily sold merch inside the venue and given the merch crew a few hours to sleep. Instead they're working to serve you. If you're unsatisfied, vote with your wallet.

    I agree with all that you say. I'm just saying, they knew they had a show last night. Tell people 3pm. it gets in the way of people who have traveled a great distance trying to plan their day

    What? This is a shocking allegation. I'm sure the lad I saw buying 50 posters before the show in St. Louis is just an incredibly dedicated fan who was just buying posters for his equally dedicated friends and family members.

    50 Popeye posters? What an idiot.

    Big time idiot. But the biggest idiot of all is the one who was running that merchandise table who sold this idiot 50 posters. Seriously? 50 posters? Didn't anyone behind these idiots up front attempt to trip this dude so all the prints would bent? Just imagine what would happen? Can the tripper apologize and tell the sales clerk to return all these 50 bent prints for a new batch of 50 prints? If so, I hope once he receives the new 50 prints, someone else else trips him again. And the cycle continues ... If this was filmed, it would be a million+ YouTube hit! :bz
