Moody center announced Sting on Sept 17th today, presale Sept 20th. Wonder if that means the PJ announcement will be later. 

April 20th is Livenations presale for Sting 

April 20th will be Pearl Jams presale for 10C. Completely different things that can happen together.

They'll never sell any tickets that way

Exactly, who in their right mind will buy Sting tickets when PJ is playing the next couple of nights.

2023 tour merch - You all have survived every day and probably not once thought about how much better your life would be with X city 2023 poster and sticker.   Now, knowing this, think about going to a Pearl Jam concert and sleeping in until 10am on show day, walking around the city, grabbing lunch, dinner and a few brews, and then heading into the show with no bag of merch or poster tube that you are watching like a hawk so it doesn't get stolen or damaged.    It is liberating.  

HEY.... you know what....... i didnt need to feel this way today and i hope you get a parmesan chicken sandwich today that isnt crispy at all.

Okay, maybe everyone but Gee here.

Your post made me LOL.  It reminded me of Rome.... My wife KNEW going in that i was going to get a poster.... showed up super early and NO posters at all.  I think i remember hearing they were are  gone before the merch tent even opened.  So i paid a ton for one online, concert was incredible though

What am I missing, why does everyone think the announcement is today?

We have woken up every day for the last two weeks thinking the announcement is that day. That said, have a great feeling about tomorrow.

When we got to Nashville, saw the line, and went directly for a Cajun Burrito at Mojos (RIP). Got a message from a friend that it had gotten more insane. Went to Bearded Iris Brewing, enjoyed some cold beers. Got to the show a smidge early, got to our section and waited in line five minutes to get everything. I felt real bad for all them folks in line all day.

Do all the people at that Sting show on the 17th:

A. Have no idea how they got there but it's revealed to them 3 days later when they get presale tickets and are shuffled off to a Delorean

Or

B. Know exactly what's going on and are equally as excited to know they will score on the presale and get a Delorean ride

The Sting show is the least cool part of this trip

Well if there's a tour, that'll have to be true on one of these days

That's exactly how it was in OKC as well....crazy long line outside. We just walked in and grabbed what we wanted. Now that I think of it, the same thing happened at PJ20 as well. They had everything inside. We grabbed our posters, walked over to the UPS store on-site and shipped them home. (They had quite the journey after being lost for weeks, but eventually made it)

After Rome happened, i decided i wasnt showing up early again.  Had tickets to Oakland in 2020 and held on to them for 2022.  Showed up on time and had plenty of access to posters.  I obviously love this new change,

Luckily for the next day at Louisville, I had two friends on the ground at the festival, that went over, got merch for us. Met up outside the hotel, and dumped it in the room, and went to the fest.

When we went to Imola last year, EVERYTHING was gone by the time we got to the booth. 
Then we're leaving, and there's this open booth with EVERYTHING in stock. Filled up, walked to the hotel that night and crashed.

Edit: I did have to give up my Sear How Now Pearl Jam metal water jug at the security line. Which I was NOT happy about. But that was on me.

We had some friends that did that at Ohana 1 in 2021 that grabbed posters for us. We picked them up and we just dumped everything in the car and hung out for a couple of hours before heading back to the festival.

93xrt? If so it could always be Los Lobos or Poi Dog, they consider that major.

ln St Louis,  I looked at the line and ended up touring the arch and going to Wishlist..got to arena hpur before opening..got all my merch. Just was annoying with the tube in the stands but better than all day line.

To be fair those are two great bands. Well, Los Lobos at least is great. Poi Dog is probably a fun show.

I suggest a cooler sling. Its meant to hold like 6+ beers (or soda) in a line. I have one just for concerts. It rolls and folds down pretty small, so it fits in a pocket, fanny pack or purse. Pop it out when you get your poster and tube. Plus, you can kind of pretend you're a samurai.
