this has probably been discussed in depth already, but i missed it.

can anybody explain what this wristband thing is all about?

    I did it last night at Camden. Bought a poster around 8:30pm. You pay the money, they slap on a wrist band. After the show, you go back to the booth you bought the poster from and trade the wristband for the poster. It works great since you don't have to worry about posters getting all messed up during the show.

    You pay for the poster and they put a wristband on you,then you pick it up at that booth after the show.Its nice so you dont have to carry it around.

    the poster experience is a lot less stressful now with the wristbands...

    they give you a poster, and after the show you exchange it for a wrist band. It really is quite a system......

    Awesome! One step closer to reserving a poster with the purchase of a 10C ticket and picking it up at the 10C window.

    Thanks for the info, everyone. :)

    You seriously got a poster around 8:30??!?...that's awesome for you, but sucks for me cause I was there like an hour earlier and was told all sold out at each table. Sheesh. Hopefully tonight I'll get one.

    That's a great policy! I threw my poster from the last European tour in the cloakroom, but it was such stress rushing around so I could get back to the front.
    Hey hey it's okay...

    This makes the most since after purchesing ur 10c tickets u can get the package where u get a poster to. Then whe u goto the window to get ur tickets they have a stack there for the people that bought them and give it to u . This really would make the most sense and get rid of most of the bitching.

    Do they take credit cards for the posters or cash only?

    no, i think you should earn your poster by getting there early. there is incentive for pj to do it this way so more people will be there for the opening band.

    plus, there are probably less posters than 10c members attending the show. it is already hard enough to purchase 10c tix on the website, i wouldn't want to worry about a poster order when i am trying to secure my tix.

    think about it, how many times does the site crash after you have pulled tickets but while you are confirming your address. adding the option to buy a poster would only add another step in the purchase process and make it more frustrating. we need to streamline the purchase process, not make it longer.

    At Tampa and SC they were taking credit cards and cash for all merchandise.

    I got mine right around the same time. I was told it was the last one at that particular stand. The best part was picking it up after the show. Some chick started screaming, "Oh, they have posters now!" and tried to get up to the front of the line. It's funny watching people that have no clue get denied on the doorstep. I giggled.

    Can't wait for tonight... Gotta finish up some work, then it's off to get my drink and washers on!

    This was how they did it at the VIC. So easy, and necessary. It's hard enough trying to hit the one(y) at a show, much less whiltst juggling a poster. I could care less if they are printing more. I never see the opening band, don't want my ears to be corrupted.
