I have (nearly) recovered from my merch whore ways. I haven't bought a poster since 2012 and managed to pass on the merch line madness in Florida but I did slip out to the table during Got Some at the Tampa show and bought a motel keyring and some flip flops. What can I say? I'm a sucker for a novelty souvenir. I can put them in the same storage bin as my light-up Elton John glasses I suppose.
so if im reading this correctly ill have to commute to MSG at like 10 AM then wait in line for hours and hope that shirts/posters dont run out? then commute back home to only come back in for the show?
Sounds about right. I did this very thing in Tampa this year and it really sucked having everything show specific sell out roughly 20-30 people in front of me after making the special trip to the venue and waiting two plus hours in line. I literally walked away empty handed as I wasn't blown away with any of the other merch they were offering unfortunately. Oh well, the show later that night more than made up for it!
My recommendation to anyone wanting a poster or other show specific merchandise is to be in line no later than 11/11:30am otherwise don't even waste your time. I got in line around 1:30pm in Tampa so my assumption is if I had gotten there a couple hours earlier my chances would of been a lot better. If you miss out on the merch line outside the venue you still have hope but you'll have to make sure you're at the arena doors when they're ready to open (I believe most places it's been around 6:30pm) to maximize your chances as most of the show specific merch has been selling out quickly inside as well (roughly 30-45 min after doors open).
Definitely agree... getting a poster and a tour date specific shirt was non-issue in Fort Lauderdale, got to the line at 4:45 --- reached the trailer at 5:50, and got the merch I wanted... Miami was totally different issue... I parked my car at Bayside right across from the Arena at 3:20 - I figured, it would be similar to Fort Lauderdale - decided to eat first, went in line around 4:15... by 4:30-35, posters soldout... as a contingency plan, I opted on lining up at the highest gate of the areana... was first in line, got to the first Merch table I saw, and got the poster and tour specific shirt I wanted... I believe I did the same thing in Detroit... you may have a better chance in lining up as one of the first in the gate, rather than lining up on the trailer, if you do decide to show up at a later time.

Can anyone grab me a poster that is getting there early? I have never asked for anything on the boards, so not sure on protocol or if this is the right thread to do it. I am driving down from Charlotte, but can't leave until 4 as I have to wait for sitter to watch kids. Will pay cash on the spot and appreciate anyone that can help! PM if interested and thanks!

Merch seemed easier to get in FtL and Miami than during past tours. In FtL, people who lined up well after 1PM were able to get posters and show-specific shirts/pins/stickers and there were posters available in the arena until at least 7:30PM. In Miami, people who lined up at the truck just before 4PM were able to get posters/stickers/pins/shirts.

Hmm. I think the lettering on the band name is awesome. Wouldn't hang a big bat on my wall but that is great lettering. Sure beats the lettering on the Hampton poster a couple days ago

Will they have different posters for nights 1 and 2 in Chicago?
They did two different posters for the Brooklyn shows last time I saw them, although they were thematically similar, in case you wanted to frame them together, I suppose?
