    People get way too stressed out about merch.  The longest I would be willing to wait on line is an hour.  Some shows I make it in early and get what I need with a minimal wait.  And other shows I prefer to hangout and enjoy the venue or city.  In those cases I’m cool with paying a premium on eBay.  Anything more than an hour is not worth my time. 
    same.  i'm not flying to seattle to wait in line and stress out.  
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    an hour in line to buy something? no thanks! :)
    i giggle at the people who stand in line over night to buy the new apple phone or xbox 
    there is nothing i need that would make me wait that amount of time...unless it was a special one time shipment of legally sold double zero moroccan green hash 
    but to each their own   ;)

    I am as big as a PJ merch fan as the next fan, but It is evident in the merch they are still touring for the Lightning Bolt album ( at least in designs with the cards, some shirts, etc). Does anyone else find that a little strange? I believe the first Lightning Bolt tour was in 2013. Crazy in 2018 they are still touring for the same album. I love the fact they are still doing shows year in and year out, even though no new music has been coming, but how about getting rid of the lightning bolt designs for the new tours. I know its a petty complaint, just speaking my mind. Bring on the shows next week!!
    Could just be the aesthetic vs. the album cycle. How long have they been using the stickman and certain fonts?

    They constantly change fonts except for the LB stuff as of late and the stickman is a symbol and not really from an album but a Jeff doodle.

    Yeah man I don't know. All I'm saying is maybe they just dig the lightning bolt.

    I really hope that they bring the baseball cards to the shop this time...I don't expect it but I'm open for a huge surprise.  1 pack will soon cost $ 60 on ebay..
    Maybe, but you can get a pack of 2016 cards for less than $10 now on eBay. Just don’t give in to the insane prices.

    Most merch is pretty awful.  Even posters.  I like 1 or 2 per tour.

    Look at 2016 and the cards there.  They ran the presses with them.

    They'll be even more now.  They'll never be like 2013 cards.  Those are more scarce.

    I've now gotten to the point of having an internal merch line shot clock.

    Wait in line for 10-15 to see the flow of traffic (and if things are still available), check eBay to see what things are selling for, and if I got better things to do buy online and jump out of the line. Managed to save myself an hour more of waiting only to miss out on the Faile Wrigley poster.

    I wouldn't be surprised if people were killing time in merch lines setting up their eBay listings.
