Not a massive fan of this one. Don't mind the colors. I like the framing and text but not gone on the main image. What's the significance with the flowers? Both seem to be the same flower but different colors.
I believe the flowers are poppies which is kind of interesting. And it's so refreshing to have flowers instead of skulls for a change.
Which is why the pocket full of Posies came to mind.
The poppies are wrapped around the empire state building like a ring around the rosie?
Too much?
I reached out to Evangeline and here's what they said (and they specifically said feel free to share): "For Eddie Vedder's Earthlings tour, the creative director shared some insight that it was based around ideas of all being inhabitants of earth during times of division. They also wanted to possibly reference New York City or the show venue in the poster imagery.
Based on those notes, most of my sketches combined the city with elements of nature. I had a few sketches with ideas like a subway car filled with tropical fish, or the Beacon Theatre with flowers and vines. Ultimately the empire state blooming with flowers ended up being the favorite and fitting the brief the best! There wasn't a ton of reasoning behind choosing poppies at the time (besides that I like drawing them), but they are a symbol of peace and remembrance which I also think suits the theme of coming together in divisive times. "
Me again: Pretty cool. Bet we see more from Evangeline Gallagher in the future.
Thanks for sharing that - always cool hearing about the creative process. I really like this poster and its fit with the theme and location.
Are they limiting all posters to just 1 per person or only the tour poster? Is the event still not limited to 1? Have a buddy who wanted me to get him one and I also wanted one.
Why can’t they put together a list of the merch that will be available and give everyone a week to place orders and then. Make that much of each and ship it out?? The time spent on merch lines and the money flippers make off it is ridiculous. I’d say a couple hundred people at least missed the entire Hansard set on Thursday be a they were on line and that doesn’t even account for everyone (like me) who didn’t even bother getting merch because the time it would take
seriously what would be the downside of just allowing an ordering window??

It is a lot more work for them, so basically you have to do less. Then you have even more flippers or if they make too much leftover inventory. Venues getting a cut of merch sales might be in his contract also but I don’t know if that is still a thing

If it doesn’t sell out and have resale value then they sell less than they would otherwise.
500 posters with a high eBay value sell out instantly. 2000 posters worth only face value they might not even sell 500.
an items value is a major driver of sales and collectibility. By the time I get to the front of those insane merch lines 9 times out of 10 I buy way more than I was planning on when I entered the line, because of the frenzy and because I might as well as if I change my mind later I’m not getting back in that line a second time.

Dang you nailed it didn’t you!! After standing in that line for so long I definitely overbuy. 😅

Yeah I guess that makes sense.
I just wish I’d have an easier time buying a stupid shirt than trying to allocate over an hour of my day to it. Especially after dropping over $200 for a ticket .

Looking through the thread, I think I got prices on most merch, to plan my budget accordingly for next week's show. However, haven't seen prices on the green beenie hat, the fingerless gloves, and the mug. Does anybody know prices of those items? Thanks.
Can someone tell me if it actually makes sense to go to the merch booth super early tonight? Show poster is a must but I'm about 90 minutes out from the venue and if I arrive at 3:30 when they claimed merch would open, thatd leave me about 3.5 hours in newark to sit around. Did NYC posters sell out early? I remember at Ohana day 2 they sold out super quick and I had people asking to buy them for double the price off me.

Does anyone have a photo of the prices (especially poster, tour shirts and beanie)? I pay in cash and just want to be prepared. Thx

You never really know if the poster is going to be hot or not that day. I mean you can kind of gather based on your impression and reactions here but you never know. I remember people not liking the Ohana poster but it sold fast.
Also arriving at 3:30 doesn’t mean you’ll be done at 3:30. It may take an hour plus, it may not. We were stuck in line from 4:30-6:30 on Thursday. Friday some people say they got there at 3:30 and were done at 4. Thursday’s poster sold out fast and Friday’s was still available after the show, although the tour poster was not. You just don’t know how much time it will take and if it will be worth it in the end. People who waited until doors were in line for 45 mins before the show though so it may still take awhile even if you don’t go early. People were still in line when Glen went on.
