    Regardless of what show you are talking about, you should be there already.

    I did an hour early in Memphis. Easily got a poster. They had to resupply on the gig shirts but got one of those too easily after another 30 min wait.

    I went to shows in 2013 and there weren't many issues. The Vancouver show's merch line (early in the afternoon) was about 40 minutes. I don't think they ever sold out of posters. The Seattle merch both was open for days before the actual concert, but the lineup was insane. It looked like it would take hours to get through. I love PJ and collecting stuff but there was no way I was going to wait that long for the opportunity to buy stuff. The funny thing was they had everything inside the venue too. I bought a poster without problem inside the arena. They had pretty much everything an no lineups because people had been lining up outside for days :)

    Depends on how many stickers you want... Stickers! St..ick..ers... IDK... It's just the popular hot item at the merch stands. Better go line up for those stickers, or your concert experience won't be worth it!! :))

    I remembered waiting for the Vancouver merch. Some dude came walking down the isle telling us the posters & stickers didn't make it. 5 minutes later we heard they are here. SWEET!! Was easy picking up my goodies & taking them back to hotel.

    Seattle was pretty cool. With the merch truck opened the day before the show. I still remember that Chris Farley like woman security guard talking smack. lol. Went ahead and bought the yellow shirt that day. Next day, show day, they were selling the green shirts. D'oh! Didn't wait in line cause it was HUGE outside that moment. Just wasn't worth it in the cold. After the preparty we headed back up the hill. Merch lines was still packed outdoors & indoors. Just passed & went to see Mudhoney. Yes, I didn't wait in line for a PJ shirt, because Mudhoney was on. :p

    ...

    Back to the topic .. "what time should i get to the merch line?"
    Let's see. They usually open at 1pm. Sometimes earlier. Sometimes later.
    ... 10am is a good time.

    i got in line in Memphis at 1030 am booth opened at 1pm and I was 10th in line. At 1pm there was about 100 people in line. I say if you're going to wait anyway wait early to be up front to guarantee you get what you want.

    Not sure if one person could afford it.....
    maybe we can start a raffle to collect money
    :))

    or what's that guy? Sawyer (or whatever) that tried to buy Alpine Valley so that he could get a front row seat for PJ20. He would probably just buy it outright.
