Have seen the Sydney 1 & 2 posters on eBay....really nice. How early do you need to get to the arena to get one? Do they sell out fast? Should I take a cardboard tube to put one in? Can you buy more than 1? (friend in Canada wants one).........and finally, how much are they going for? Heading to Melbourne 1 & 3, need to get some souvenirs!

In fact, what merch is for sale?? Some prices as well would be helpful!

Cheers!

    T-shirts around $45, posters $10-15ish stickers and others available.
    Program with photos from on tour $15.

    Tube would be nice but security may not let you take it in.

    Limit of 1 poster per person unfortunately. Probably could have bought 1 from each stand though...

    I've only been to Sydney 1 so far...

    They wouldn't let me take the tube in, but there was an outside coat check, so I checked it for $2 -- no problem. There were still posters after the show. at Sydney 1.

    If you do buy one pre-show, and there is no coat check, you can try the innovative method that my buddy used. He bought 2 Pearl Jam coozies (foam beer holders), and put one on each end of the rolled poster. Then he wrapped the whole thing in a PJ towell! The towells are great, actually.... same design as the Klausen LA poster (minus any mention of Sonic Youth).

    Best of luck to you...
