200 people 2 hors before opening..the load the boxes in the tent now we taslking
Pictures or it didn't happen. Hahaha! Can't wait to get up there and jump into the mix! Half the fun can be fighting for merch! Or it could turn into a nightmare? We'll have to see on Tuesday morning when I hit the streets of Seattle.
You would think the shows are at CenturyLink and not Safeco with the color scheme they chose for most of the Seattle merch. Why couldn't they throw in some old school Mariners color scheme merch in there?
I don't even think PJ is at the level of merch that the Stones, Beatles or Floyd are at. But you make one dog collar and print 14 different shirts for some stadium shows and you get labeled as a schlock band crass merchandiser.
I disagree here Stones have one of the most boring posters out there and they charge premium too comparing to PJ Roger waters tshirt is basically a template from his new album cover

Ok, after not falling out of my chair when I first saw all of these...... I'm getting pretty jacked on the Faile and Klausen as well as the Big Foot. Just sayin.

I mean, putting their logo/name/image on anything and selling it. Re: how people are comparing PJ to Kiss in terms of merchandising. Not in terms of quality of content/price.
Yea and probably 50% arent going to the shows and 90% will be back in line every day.

Because they might as well be Kiss now with all the focus on merch and not music. It was fun getting a sticker and a poster, but now you have to stand in line three hours at a mall to get it. 7 days of merch. Absolutely ridiculous.
100% agree. This definitely isn't the pearl jam I grew up with (and before someone jumps down my throat I get that they changed blah blah blah). I just wish they would put as much effort into writing music as they do with the merch. Now we have people lining up for days to get rail and/or merch for a band that has written one song in 5 years.
I'm gonna be happy as hell strolling into ga five minutes before they go on after spending a nice day with my wife in Chicago kid free. If anything is left merchwise I'll probably get a t-shirt for my wife and maybe a sticker. One thing I'll definitely pick up is the bootleg when it comes out.
someone post some pics once they got a poster... I dont have my copies and am not sure when they will arrive, I know the printers have been swamped for a while working on the US leg, so you gotta figure artist copies are last to be shipped (i bet they do not arrive til next week)... always concerned about how colors print compared to how they look to the sample jpeg...it is seldom a direct match just because computer monitors and paper are obviously different beasts
The colors on that shuss one are amazing. The brown of the hairy ape guy is simply perfect. And the lettering is so dynamic. Totally mind blowing piece of art.

Great work brad. And I’m also a fan of your recent 311 poster. Well done!
Have a question. Do they have bags to put your stuff in shirt, socks, cards etc. or should you bring your own. Don't want to be stuck with a bunch of crap in my hands when I leave.

They were MR TSURT poly fabric bags at Wrigley 2016.
You would think the shows are at CenturyLink and not Safeco with the color scheme they chose for most of the Seattle merch. Why couldn't they throw in some old school Mariners color scheme merch in there?
100% this. I love the Seahawks colors but it's not at Centurylink! Old school Mariners is the best.
