    Anyone else think that charging €175 for the signed poster is a bit much? Before anyone says "No ones forcing you to buy it", point taken. But adding €140 onto the price just for EV signature is steep. Or am I wrong and that's generally how much signed EV merch goes for?
    I woulds happily pay it if I was at the show.

    As a Dane I can´t help being a little pissed when I see "Copenhagen" written on the items... It is actually very arrogant ( and the artist comes out as an uneducated jerk ) to think that Denmark is only Copenhagen. 
    Geez that's overreacting. I guess you'd rather they just not come?

    No mr. Chicago .... You missing the point

    I'm from Akron and if they don't include Ohio on to the end of it, I'm not offended.  I'm not offended if they shorten Cincinnati to Cincy, or Indianapolis to Indy.  So many more things in the world for me to be offended about.  Starvation, killing, bombing, death and loss . . . 

    And yes, some of my family is from Denmark.  Not offended by Copenhagen either.  But then, wait . . . should I be?  ;)

    Typically EV donates the $ to a charity. He's done that in the past with his solo shows and autographed posters
    Yea, I got one from the Memphis 2012 show. Think they were $150 then, with the proceeds going to EB research.

    I've never been to Denmark...never will be. Google map seems to think the show is less than a 2 hour drive from Copenhagen. If that's not close enough for you to not be bothered, then you're just looking for something to complain about.

    That is sweet. Did they sell out in like 5 minutes?

    So you would be ok with a Chicago show being labeled Milwaukee on the poster then? While his manner of getting his point across was way to strong I would be annoyed a little that if Eddie ever came to my town (would never happen) and they called it a different town.

    I want a few of those coasters! I really need some. If anyone has 1, 2, or 3 spares, I'd love to purchase. :)

    Simple and to the point. The top looks rounded instead of square which is a nice change.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I'm not defending your choice of language regarding the artist but looking on a map, it seems quite far away to be calling it Copenhagen but hey I live in Scotland and people often refer to us as being in England or that England and the UK are the same. About time EV or Pearl Jam played here.

    Yeah Id' say referring to Ed as an uneducated jerk is a little strong.

    Now doing a quick google, it seems like the area of the Denmark castle is a lightly populated area. So really, maybe they could have just said Denmark? 

    But if you want to compare it to such things here near me...Alpine Valley has been a big Chicago stop over the decades. Not so much anymore, but anyway. From the many shows I've gone to at Alpine, some shirts or posters say Alpine Valley, some say East Troy, some say Chicago, and some say Milwaukee. And I don't recall anyone complaining no matter what it said :)

    Everytime they've played Camden, NJ the poster and shirts have said Philly.

    This design for the tour shirts that https://www.instagram.com/travispriceillustration/ did is fantastic. The guitar/wave is great. I hope this design is used on other shirts besides this tour because he hit it out of the ballpark with this IMO. Take my money!

    Take my money too! I love this design! Hope they end up in the shop here.

    Really liking the black hat. Hope it fits better then the past tours. As someone mentioned it looks rounder on the top which is great!
