    Are the building and the person and/or their gear in any context to Nashville or Tennessee? 
    Yep. That's the Parthenon from Centennial park with the Athena statue inside. Both this image and the Imogene + Willie artist are well-known in the city and will resonate with local fans.
    Nashville ‘22 took my son. Only asks were to go to Third Man Records and the Parthenon (a big role in the Percy Jackson series which he read). Went to both! Great trip. Like the shirt.

    Yeah it’s a local, vaguely regional thing. The only reason I know it’s nicknamed the “Athens of the South” is because I was looking at Vandy.

    I don't understand not making a larger run of the tokens for this tour given how popular they were in 2024. Seems like an easy and high margin item for the band/TSURT to capitalize on and also something the fans really want but what do I know.
    There must be something we're missing about producing the tokens because between the size, cost, and especially the intent you'd think they'd have piles of them

    From the discussion I heard from the people in the booths last year, they shipped all of the tokens together in the same box, and had to be hand sorted by staff for each show.  At least the North America shows.  Sounded like a pain in the ass.  If its the same this time, they probably ordered a lot less.  Overhead for them would probably eat most of the profit.

    This makes sense with the wrong dates people were getting.

    If anyone is going for merch at doors and isn’t looking to get a token but can grab me one, I’d be forever grateful.  Might not be able to make it for doors opening. Happily pay for something you’re getting.

    Tokens were out before 12:35pm

    staffer suggested about 100 tokens were allocated outside.

    So if it was 1 token per customer outside, the first 100 people do have one. A kind of limitation. But now there must be a lot more left for the sales inside later.


    JojoRice & Cooter, thanks for the decryption of the sticker/shirt.

    2 hours or so in line. Got everything I wanted.  The poster looks slightly better in person but still not buyable for me.

    We just got into Nashville and checked into the hotel. I am going to take a nap before heading to the arena. I will wait until the poster gets in the 10c shop. It should be one that doesn’t sell out in a minute.

    Yeah the line was a lot longer here compared to lining up around the same time in Atlanta. I don’t get the tiny allotment of tokens. Kinda sucks because if you go to multiple shows and then miss just one you’re going to eBay to pay a 1000% markup. Bigger problems in the world though
    What was the token limit?

    I like the poster and since I’m not familiar with the artist the reusing of material does not bother me much. It has a nice, post war, 1984 big brother feel to me. Probably buy it from the shop.

    Funny. Last year at Fenway I was in the merch line just before gates open and everything was still available, tokens included. What's changed this time?

    Would anyone be willing to get me a deck inside the venue tonight please? I was in line for 2.5 hrs and they were sold out by the time I got up there.

    I received several inquiries about my official @pearljam Atlanta event poster drop. I haven’t dropped the posters yet on my webstore as I won’t be able to take care of any shipping til June/July. I don’t want you to buy something now and wait a month or longer to receive it. As soon as my schedule is good enough to plan shipping I will announce the drop on here (and if you have reached out via email I’ll send a reply with the sale date as well). Thank you for your patience :)

    I think this is it. It’s an easy thing to have leftover. So produce a trial balloon amount. Slowly ratchet up the amount every tour after until they start to be left over. The scarcity drives bigger demand. It’s basically the posters all over.

    Two booths I went to were sold out. Wonder how many were actually produced for Nashville 1.

    Depends on the merch attendant. I asked for and received one - the fella next to me asked for and received two.
