    Tokens?
    I died. I died and you just stood there. I died and you watched. I died and you walked by and said no. I'm dead.

    It would be really nice if they did a tour and didn’t sell any merch at all, just played music in the cities they went to- maybe sell something for a charity at the show (no merch trucks) but this level of merchandise is nuts!! 
    Does anyone need this amount of stuff? And stuff it is. It always feels like their merchandise goes counter to their music. Kiss wouldn’t have this amount of crap at a show!!

    Pretty sure it’s the only real profit in touring for most artists. No one makes you buy the merch , just the ticket! It’s a bit insanely priced for low quality items, I will give you that.

    I would agree but unfortunately that’s how a lot of artists’ money is made and these days

    They have had ‘excessive merchandise’ for about the last 30 years! 
    Havnt they made enough money already? They are a band- it’s meant to be about music. This type of ‘rare merch’ thing has gone crazy and Is also obviously not great in environmentally conscious times- who needs 16 versions of an album, really?

    Dude come on. You expect a major band to not make some additional money? If you don’t want it, don’t buy it!

    Dude, don’t release 16 vinyl versions of an album then preach about the environment!!!
    “Additional money”!!!! Is the first money they are making not enough? €180 for a concert ticket in Dublin was a joke

    If they didn’t sell so much s##t then no one would care, after a while, would they? It’s a false economy/ people only buy this stuff because they think it will have value

    I got in line about 9. Done by 11:30. Got all 5 prints I wanted. Only tokens were gone. Recommend sunscreen for anyone lining up. Was all the way past Yard House when I drove off at 11:45. Time for a nap back in Salem before heading back in for N1. Show 21 for me. LFG Boston! 

    Hey just checking: are the posters dated for both nights? I sent my husband today and he bought all five posters; I see both nights on some of them — before I try to figure out where to hang another batch of posters, can someone confirm if they’re all dated for both nights??

    The great thing is you can make believe it's like this by just walking by and heading to your seats
