Does anyone know what brand most of the t-shirts are for this round of shows?
The 2016 tour shirt (black one with the cities in gold writing on the back) is American Apparel. Not sure of the setlist shirt, mine's still in Boston waiting for me to pick it up from my friend.
What size are you? And where is this friend?
Haha, damn, guess I should've had her pick up more. Could've offset the $150+ I spent on parking, gas, tolls, etc., that weekend...
I don't care how much I want a shirt or poster I'm never waiting six hours in a merch line. We got off the train in '13 saw the line laughed and just kept walking to sluggers.
The posters sold out right in front of me. I got to the line late which is my own fault, I got there around 1130-noon cuz I thought it wouldn't be as bad today and I overslept on top of that. Very disappointed.
Got in line at 11:30 yesterday and got a poster. Got in like at 10 today and just barely got one. Was super shocked that it was that much busier on a Monday.
let the flippers stand in line all day in the heat... then when ebay is flooded after a few days or after the hype has died down, buy what you want for pretty much face value... I know most of the fenway posters can probably be had for little over face value right now... and of course there is always the 10c sale...
or just be smart and cherry pick your spots... we got everything we wanted and could have bought literally any of the fenway merch with little more than 30 minutes in line... Thomas poster, check... stickers, check... pennant, check... skyline shirt, check... could have bought cards if I wanted... flags.. whatever
All I'm hoping for is to be able to pick up a BK AP when they go on sale. Can't get one at the show (not paying evilbay prices), was supposed to be there, but the trip got canceled last Thursday, because my dog broke her leg and had to have surgery.
I'm heading down to Metro at like 4:30-5. Hopefully will be able to get through before it's shut. It seems like Chicago is always more complicated than it needs to be.

I can't think of a worse place to try and sell such a huge array of merch than the shitty little Metro store. That place barely functions when it's just a regular show at the Metro with the band selling a handful of T-Shirts and some posters/LPs.

Please post how it goes.
Most definitely. Doesn't seem like there have been any real updates in a while.

I love the wrigley poster with the black crowes on it!!!
When I saw that poster I totally thought it looked like a poster TBC would do for one of their gigs as well (when they were still playing that is).
Not a bad guess, but it's actually an homage to Illinoisians Cheap Trick. The back of the print talks about Plague Doctors, and human rights. Plague Doctors wore long pointed masks. Cheap Trick has an album called "The Doctor". Artwork: http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-doctor-mw0000189443

If it helps I am usually a M/L in T-Shirts and I went with the L because it is 100% cotton. After a wash it shrunk a little and fits perfectly. I am 5' 7" 155lb

Good luck. Just saw a pic on twitter and the line looked pretty bad still. Things should get better when they get their actual stands set up the rest of the weekend.
Just got here at 3:47 line still wrapped around Racine
