I was 8th on Tuesday. You could leave to go to the restroom, etc and come right back. We did it mostly because people were showing up and trying to stand right beside the door. We sent many to the end of the line.

If anyone can confirm that it's legit to get marked with a number and then leave, please let us know!
Thats what it used to be like in 2013-14 GA lines. 10club put a stop to it and rightfully so. Now it seems its back for the merch lines.
What was the problem? Seems like a good way to stop #5 in line from having a friend or two stroll up at 11:55.
Yes, you are thinking about why it makes sense for the marker system. But the opposite was happening. Someone would arrive at 6am, put their name in a notebook and mark a #5 on their hand, and then leave for 8 hours and come back expecting to step back in to the 5th spot in line.
if someone is going to be in line today and could help a brother out getting some stuff, I would GREATLY appreciate it.
I'll reimburse in full for the merch, can meet up in Boston to pick it up this weekend and can even throw you a couple extra bucks for your choice of merch, beer, or *cough cough* tobacco this weekend for the show.
Let me know!

Oh jeeze. Yeah, way to ruin a good idea. That's why I sit this stuff out. Too much stress on top of the time commitment. Feel bad for those in line having to shoo away people lingering near the front.

I'll be getting in Saturday morning for the HOB and then Sunday show. I was planning on doing the merch line when I get in, but if someone is willing to grab a poster for me, please send me a PM. I'll be more than happy to grab you a beer and a hug
Planning on getting a t shirt if there are any left. I am 5'9 regular build and do not like my shirts too tight or too loose for that matter. What size are people getting?

The two I got are American Apparel so super soft and they run small for the size.

mens? I was looking to get the green Lucky tshirt and don't really want to try it on there.
6'2'' 180 and I went XL in T-shirts and L in "Monogram" baseball T. Sleeves looked a little short for my liking on the T-shirts so I sized up. Body might be a little long on the XL though.

I'm 5-10 and 160lbs, got the L in the green T-shirt. It's a tiny bit smaller than other larges I have (which are a bit on the big side for me). The baseball jerseys run big, I got a medium after I saw how big the large was!

Yeah, mens. I got the skyline and old timer. Not sure on the lucky, but if it's American Apparel my two fit similarly to each other.

most of this stuff IMO will be much cheaper if you guys are just patient. We haven't even had a show yet. The market will be flooded with stuff from this week I would think. Be patient, stop paying 400% on ebay and take a breathe...it's just stuff. It will be there sooner or later
Let's not forget why we go to these shows... The Music, the atmosphere, that feeling you get when "that moment" happens. The rest is just stuff... Don't let "stuff" diminish "that" feeling.

It's funny how many people are asking favors of those waiting in line. Seriously?
"favors" implies nothing in return. people are clearly offering payments in different forms for their time and effort.

I dont know why it matters either way really....the reality is there are flippers buying max merch and selling on ebay.
If there is a fan waiting in line when most of us cannot be, trying to buy a poster...why is it so ridiculous to think that they could buy a highly sought after jersey for a fellow fan?
Every item a fan helps another fan get for retail price is one less that hits the flip market....
