This is impossible.  I’m here checking but not at the right instant. A minute late. A minute early. 

When I’m sitting at home watching the set list thread I’ll remember March 5 10/20 PM. That was my chance but I wiffed. 

Don't give up! I know this seems impossible - but it's really just luck. Dumb, stupid luck.

Also, a word of advice (to everyone) - don't panic. Breathe. Hell, tell yourself you're not going to get them so that you stay calm. I think I've been successful because I manage to contain that adrenaline rush until the final checkout "please wait" screen, because at that point, there's nothing else I can or need to do. I'll either get them, or I won't. THEN my hands start shaking and my heart races.

It’s got to happen this weekend!  Feeling renewed again!

Just use the given to f5 with into the wild silhouette on front. 

We’re all still F5! On back huge is my opinion. Rest too busy. 

I love that Given to F5 image.

It's easily the best, most appropriate, and cleanest image that has been presented so far.  

Some of these other ideas are too over engineered or confusing.

Given to F5 image on the front with Baltimore 2020 somewhere on it....I'm Still F5! on the back.

Maybe make it orange and black for the Orioles colors or something like someone suggested.

Done and done.

Ok, I like the above idea, if we want to keep it simple!  The glacier pics are great, as was the captcha with the instruments!  I think the orange and black color scheme is appropriate and a good vibe for Baltimore, so anything we do with more complex artwork should try to match in with that, IMHO.

Anyway, here's a pic of the simpler design in orange and black.  Bonus: the website is saying these shirts are only about $10 each!!



  

Man, that is sweet.  Want.

Personally I still love the "Were all still F5!" idea for the back if you can pull it off.

If people want a multi show option maybe get a few in black with white font and lose the Baltimore 2020 banner on top or something.

Either way, bravo.  Well done.

Hey.....How about this for the back?  Assuming @DH77340 doesn't mind us using his/her graphic?

So much yes.

I fucking love it.

This shirt gets my vote, but it should be agreed upon by the group as a whole....or at least this version should be by the Baltimore crew.

So since a baseball game the same day as Balt any thoughts on pricing out 3/4 sleeve baseball tees as well?

Tshirts with front and back printing, latest designs shown in above posts, are about $13 each.  Here are some baseball jersey designs, which are about $18 each, assuming the website is giving me the correct prices.  

So, I like the look of these, but I would not wear it. I detest wearing 3/4 length sleeves. Full-length or short-sleeved (or no sleeves when I'm in my wood shop). sp1984 might buy one of these, though. My vote is for the solid orange t-shirt.

Also, here's the Given to F5 design with Pearl Jam in the same font as "Given to F5" (with 2 versions, because when I start designing, I can't stop myself) link to download: https://we.tl/t-Jj7V19ZX2C

I like the black F5s forming the silhouette, but again, just personal preference.

One thing I thought of...these designs do not explicitly mention Pearl Jam....is that a good thing or should we adjust?  Also, not forgetting our OKC friends!!!  We're going to be there, too, so we could bring a few shirts along to pass out pre-party!  Not sure about the OKC colors or OKC font on the front...I cropped out the Baltimore 2020 and inserted this text box (I told you earlier I'm no graphic artist!!  haha!)  Let me know if changes are needed or if you are interested in a shirt!

 

First of all, thanks for doing this. These design is awesome. In response to your question, I think they should say Pearl Jam on them somewhere. Maybe the front should say Pearl Jam over the graphic and then the back could have the city under the stick man. Or vice versa. 

Well, first of all, you're welcome but @JB274988 and @DH77340 did all the heavy lifting!  I'm just doing some minor editing, and happy I can contribute!  Plus, all the suggestions are awesome!  I think you are spot-on with the PJ on front and city/year on back.

Also, please keep in mind that:
1. The staff at the tshirt place will review and probably adjust some things (like font size and maybe recenter the text at the bottom of the front logo, etc.)
2. I'm sorry I'm not doing this for all the locations (Canada, Nashville, etc.), but I'm not in the t-shirt business and really don't want to be shipping them or carrying around a bunch of them at the concerts.  We are only going to Bmore, OKC, and Denver (no F5 there) this spring.

That said, here's the current versions.  Any other changes we should make?

This looks amazing. Thank you to everyone who has put in all the hard work to make this happen. This t-shirt will be a great reminder in years to come of all the great people on his thread who are working so hard to help each other. It definitely does restore faith in humanity.

I’ve realized that I have a better chance at winning breakfast with Stone then getting Baltimore tickets through F2F.

I really hope I have a reason to buy one of those Baltimore shirts sooner than later.

Big thanks to @gm229314 for coordinating with me on section A row 2 for Phoenix! Couldn’t be more excited! My heart about jumped out of my chest during checkout...

I saw those but assumed it was a coordinated drop since there were some posts about it last night, so I didn't even try for them.  Glad you got em!

Has anyone actually been paid back for sold tickets by TM?  On 2/24 I got the small deposits verified in my bank but they still owe me $484 for tickets sold.  It said 5-7 business days but it’s odd that more than 2 weeks later I’m still waiting.

I have. I sold on 2/27 and was paid yesterday.

I'd suggest calling TM and making sure you put the correct debit card or bank account information in. I'm sure you did because of the small deposits, but thats the only explanation I can think of.

I agree with all of this.  I think the 3/4 sleeve ones look great, but those sleeves drive me crazy.  Also ,I am a tremendous slob and try to avoid white shirts whenever possible.

I'll certainly buy one if this is what is ordered, but my personal preference would be to get one of the solid orange Baltimore tees.

Thanks for doing this.  It looks amazing.

Thanks for being kind and leaving them be. That officially marks the end of my F5 journey. Just in time too because I was about to lose my mind...Best of luck to those still trying!

incidental immortality

So per the Baltimore F5 spreadsheet we have 21 in and 49 still looking (pending any updates). Can we get another 75-100 tickets?  

I’m going to keep trying. For some reason I really need this show. Life can get so tedious and this was going to be a little weekend diversion. 

Good luck with the hunt. Today everybody. 

Kovsar86

Hopefully we can get more of us in. Band together and still try if you got yours, walk the next person in. And so on and so on. We can make this work

You are true OG to this thread! 1st responder

I just realized that the image on the screen in the laptop of the Given to F5 design is the actual seating layout for the Baltimore show.

That is an absurd (and possibly insane) level of detail.

Outstanding.
