    With so much demand, there’s no reason for them not to sell in advance. 

    The Foo’s are already selling their Wrigley and Fenway Merch..

    That' pretty cool. It' pretty simple to do something like this nowadays. WWE does it for most of there shows. Place the order then there' usually a designated spot to pick up the merch with your email or order number. Saves a ton of time! Hope the foo fighters do this for the philly/Camden show in July. 
  • The only way they would do this is if they brought on a third party to take care of the orders. And I can’t see that happening. 

    I am pretty sure all Foo Fighters merch is through LiveNation correct?

I'm driving up on the 17th to Chicago. Due to work travel can only be at one show:(. Are the merchandise tents open early and or between the shows on the weekend?

    I think 10c tried this once for posters, and a lot of people complained: ugly poster, poorly rolled, bent corners... etc. I wouldn't expect to see this offered again. I think their way is to sell additional and leftover product on the website.

    Yes to early, yes to between shows... At least that's how it was in 2016.

    09. Worked out fine for me. But yeah I'm sure the grief they encountered wasn't worth it. I loved not having to carry around a poster all night or wait in line hours to get one. 

    How about a poster only line at shows?

    Poster only lines would solve a lot of it. I seem to always get stuck behind people that can’t decide which shirt to get and have no idea what size they are. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    The way it works in Ireland is that the stand is generally located inside the venue and will remain open until there's no one left to buy anything from it after the show, or they have sold out of everything. I usually just get there as soon as I get into the venue, if there's nothing happening onstage, and grab whatever I like the best, and whatever is left in my size. Usually I just get a t-shirt. I haven't time for all of this poster anxiety.

    This will be my first stadium show, so I am definitely dreading the merch lines. It's already bad enough at regular PJ arena shows, so I can only imagine how insane it will be at the Seattle Home Shows.

    If they do merch the same way they have for the other stadium shows...
    try to go down to the merch tent/trailer the first day it's open.
    You'll still end up waiting for a while...
    but the lines will be way shorter than they are on show days!
    Since the first Seattle show is on Wednesday,
    I'm thinking the first merch tent will open sometime on Monday!!

    That would actually be a really good idea and I'd probably avail of it once I knew that there wouldn't be extra stuff in the venue on the day in question.

    That is something that completely baffles me, how grown adults don't know what size t-shirt they are and they have to ask to look at two or three different size shirts. By the time i get to the front of the line at whatever event I'm at I know excatly what I want and the size that I'm buying. It' really not hard.

    To be fair, different brands have slightly different sizing.  I have some PJ hoodies in Small and some in Medium depending on who makes it.  So I get it.  It’s not the case for everyone but if I’m about to drop $50 on a hoodie I’m gonna make sure it fits.

    Then you have people complaining that now they have to stand in 2 lines to get everything they want.
