    Wow, I would have thought they would last longer than that.
    Tough poster to score at the show, in the arena anyway.  My sons first show and all the show specific merch was sold out when we arrived, so this was a must have.
    Yeah, that's what happens when they sell show specific merch a day before the actual show outside the venue. Only people that benefits are the flippers and "fans" who buy multiples so they can fund their next show(s). I am glad I got to the point where I couldn't care less about the merch as the "fans" ruined the experience of just trying to get a souvenir of a show you attended. 
    Too many posters for Pitt N2 were sold outside the arena Saturday and Sunday. Inside, posters sold out in less than 10 minutes.

    Yeah so if you're coming into town the day of the show you're basically SOL for any day of merch. Does not seem very "fan friendly" but bottom line is $$$ anymore.....Green Disease you could say

    That was the worst checkout experience I've ever had.  Added to cart, go to cart for checkout and it takes me to the shop home page.  Added to cart, try shop pay, same exact thing.  Rinse and repeat every time.  PayPal finally worked.  I'd have been apoplectic if I had the night one poster in my cart and it did that
    I went through that very experience trying to grab that one and the same thing just happened this time. Not cool at all. I did manage to snag this one but its not the N1 poster I really wanted. 
    I got the AP but my daughter wanted one of these too even though she wasn't there (she's 5 mind you, but you gotta start somewhere).  Got shut out of both at the shows.  Paid scalper prices on eBay for night one, missed it on here because I was in the bathroom.  Got shut out of the AP's because BK's website did not function well at all during his sales, now this.  Luckily I got one, but if you're going to do a really bad job with merch at the shows at least have your website functioning properly (that part is not on BK).  Overall just a huge thumbs down with how merch was handled on this tour.
    Lol my daughters are 5 and 3  3 1/2 and they want my AP of this poster up in their room..and they wanted a white frame.. so what’s a dad to do?

    Lol that's why I got one today.  Also hoping she's a future Pitt alum, so I have a lot riding on this one!
    Hail to Pitt!
    Hail to Pitt!  I just told my daughter I got her one, she's so excited!

    I don’t believe there were any N2 posters in the venue. I actually heard from a merch employee that they sold out of N2-specific stuff on Saturday. There’s no reason to sell that stuff the day before, especially when there’s plenty of other tour merch available to sell.

    There were N2 posters in the venue, but a very small number. The inside merch booth I was at probably had 20… which is insane. Too many sold outside the venue all day Saturday and Sunday.

    Thanks you, Santos!
    I was at both shows.  It was hard to get anything of Pittsburgh.  Kind of a bummer, but I was able to grab today’s poster.  Cheers to you all!

    N1 stuff sold out on the Friday.

    N1 was ridiculous also, not to the same extent though.  They really did a terrible job with merchandise management at those two shows

    Went to both Pitt shows, the only thing I'm missing now is a N2 shirt and the hockey jersey.

    Right; i didn’t even bother waiting more than an hour in the outside merch line since the line was so bad. Instead, we chose the GA line and were decently close to the doors. Then, inside, the arena staff told us all to go upstairs only to then tell us if we were GA to take the elevator down. That ride took us to the front of the GA queue where a bunch of salty GA campers berated us for not understanding what to do. 

    We had to walk back up the stairs through hundreds of people, effectively losing our great slot in line we waited to claim. It seems as though many of those campers are an acquired taste. 

    In the end, we managed to get just one row back from the rail, nearer to Stone — and actually pretty close to where you were.

    I’m also hoping to land the N2 shirt still; my sticker  got crushed, so I guess I need to find a way to replace that once the scalpers aren’t trying to get $30 for it.

    Missed out on all N1 merch except the sticker.  Got everything for N2 except the token.  Not paying flipper prices for anything, so will make do without unless I find a trade option down the road.

    Oh yeah, I didn’t even think about a N2 token. Those are among things that if I get one, it’s cool. If not, I usually don’t even chase down later on. For me it’s always been about the posters, going back to the mid 90s, even above shirts. There’s nothing like an exclusive piece of art from a show you attend.

    There will be opportunities for trades. And as soon as a new tour is announced (might not be until a new album/ep is released), lots of folks will look to offload merch for ticket funds.

    I'm still looking for someone willing to trade away one of the Pitt hockey jerseys.
    They sold out both nights while I was in line... on N2, I saw them take the one down on display when I was too close to the front.

    Leaving Night 1, walking up the stairs from my seat to the main concourse, i chatted up a guy walking up next to me who was holding a jersey. He said he only bought it because he missed out on the poster. He said he would have sold it to me for face value. Sadly I neglected to hit up an ATM machine before the trip out from NY and I had only 40 bucks cash on me. I thought about asking him to go with me to an ATM machine in the arena but I didn't know where one was located and it was such a madhouse leaving there that I didn't want to make my problem his problem. So, lesson learned, fill up the wallet with cash before a show!

    No poster either. Was with my bro and he did not want to do merch lines. It wasn't even worth waiting on the lines right when the building opened. All good. We had a good time, and I met up inside with a guy I know who works at the arena and we heard good inside stories about Sid and Geno!
