Do they always have at least some of the poster inside when the doors open or would they sell through all of them outside today if enough people are there? That line the other day was a lot. And today is going to be very warm.
If you go in at 6 when the doors open, you should get one. I got in line @ 5:40 Thursday, and while the merch line was long after we got through security, they had everything I wanted when I got through it.
Did they sell both posters yesterday? Going to both Chicago shows and wondering if I can make my merch run on Wednesday instead of going twice for posters.

Heard at least once of them is an easy pass.

I just walked by out of curiosity. It is already worse than Thursday with an hour to open. Don't get in it at this point would be my advice. Enjoy the day!

So if I plan on getting merchandise from the stand on the Tuesday between the shows and it opens at 11am, what time should I get there? I'd like to get my hands on city-specific merchandise and not wait in line all day.

I think it's just a crapshoot. Yesterday I could have gotten in line about an hour after it opened and I think there would have been almost everything there. But it was still an hour wait and I decided to get food instead. I went back at like 3:30 and the poster was still there and nothing else and no wait so I got the poster.

Probably 6-7 am to guarantee, but who knows.
I recommend getting in line a half hour before the doors open and getting what you want inside. Worked for me on Thursday
otoh, if you line up in the am & they open at 11, you’ll probably have your stuff before noon & the rest of the day to relax

If it’s a great poster Tuesday, I wouldn’t plan on them having left overs Wednesday. Unless they actually hold some. No one liked the first poster so that could be why there were plenty left on the off day

4-5 a.m. It's Eddie’s hometown show. Demand will be high. Depends on what you are hoping to get. I always get there early and have the rest of the day to piss away. I am not sure how I will make CHI work since I can’t make it till 3 pm. Plus going to the Cubs game so missing Wednesday merch. Sucks.

Sweet! That’s my best friend Paul! He’s my concert buddy! Awesome dude! Wish I could be there but had to sit out due to my current condition 😢.

I enjoy the merch game but the getting in line early stuff like this doesn't seem worth it to me. I only one time, on Thursday, have not gotten everything I wanted by getting in line later and have only once, on Thursday, waited for more than a few hours. You get in line at 6 you are guaranteeing a five or six hour or longer wait. I understand wanting everything and not wanting to carry it in the show but at what point is that just way too much time spent for the return? If time is money eBay is better in that regard.

I understand… granted I didn’t line up in the AM, but I appreciate the communal aspect to it… I met some great people from the forum this week, and it’s been awesome to put faces to the names after several years. In that regard, there’s more to it than just waiting for stuff…. But I do also get the frustration of waiting for hours and still not getting what you want. I’ve been there.
