    We came to the arena at 1 pm.. Saw the merch line and took a taxi back to the hotel. Picking up my TC tickets at 5 pm should be enough fun..

    No way you should be wasting time in parking lots.  There will come a time when you don’t cAre anymore about merch.  Might as well start now and enjoy time in an amazing city.  

    I have spent my fair share of time in parking lots waiting for merch.  I have been where you are and made it to the other side.  It is great over here.

    I try to get in at doors and get my stuff, I no longer waste my time in a city on line. If I strike out at the venue, I use the bay, is what it is.

    Call me swedish - but I wasnt thinking mainly about me. There was a 5,4 km line of people while they were doing one person per 15 minutes and not restocking merch.

    I went and saw rabbits and storks on the island i the cannal yesterday. And ate a vegan burger.

    We were fortunate enough to make it to the pop up sale before they closed on Thursday, but even if we didn’t, I wasn’t going to spend hours in line for a poster or shirt. Seeing London was too much of a draw to spend hours in merch lines. We were out seeing the sites of the city until just before the Pixies came on Friday and near the end of the Stereophonics set on Saturday. We walked in, found nice places, not super close, but definitely close enough where my wife saw me a time or two in the crowd shots. She was too short to show up in the shots. 😆

    I thought people said the Europeans weren't as merch crazy as us Americans? Sounds worse than I dealt with in San Diego.

    I only went to the oakland shows this year but it there wasn't much of a line for the GA merch.  We showed up about an hour early.   They had lots of posters and tour tees.   The event specific tees were long sold out.  I felt I did ok and didn't have to spend the better part of a day in line.

    I don't have it in me to wait 3 hours+ to plunk down money :(

    I do find that at both PJ shows and other concerts, it seems to take more time per transaction.   Back in the day it was cash, you tell 'em want you want, pay and go.   Pump the people through.  Now people want to check shit out, see if stuff fits... then when you pay it's with credit/debit that takes longer.   It seems many merch booths for bigger shows take a while to wade through :(

    Don’t think they were more ”merch crasy” yesterday than any earlier show. 

    It was very badly organized and extremly badly run.

    One reason was the prices maybe. Everything was much cheaper here

    Never saw, exeperienced or heard anything bad about the outside merch tent in Copenhagen. Or any other show I have ever been at. 

    It was Budapest that was unqiely shitty in this regard. 

    Hopefully the Harry Styles ”tsurt guy” gets it working better tonight at the arena for his fans. And the KISS ”tsurt guy” tomorrow for theirs. Let Pearl Jams handling set a precedent for any ”tsurt guy” and fanclub out there how not to do it.

    I have an extra Budapest poster. I am looking to trade for a Budapest event tshirt size medium and an event pin. I will be in krakow if anyone is interested.

    There were no medium event shirts at the booth I was at, or they sold out very quickly. 

    If you want to sell your poster, I would love to buy it from you or could trade for a Krakow poster if I have more luck this time.
