    Foo Fighters did a pre-order for the vast majority of their Fenway merch and it was absolutely amazing. You ordered online and then picked it up at their pop-up shop.
    I cannot for the life of me understand why this isn't emulated by the 10C. Aside from the GA line, this is the single biggest headache related to attending a show.
    They did it in 2009. It was great not having to carry around a tube. I think there are a number of reasons.  

    I know they had a lot of leftover posters for sale on the site afterwards. My gut tells me there were a bunch of complaints about the merch since it was pre bought. That shouldn't shock anyone. Plus they shipped them out so thats additional cost and labor.

    Fenway 2016 was a breeze (with the exception of the catch of course).  I lined up early on the day in between the shows and got all i wanted (except the catch).  Even inside had all the items.  As long as there isn't an emek or crazy popular poster it'll all be fine.  
    I got the catch that day.  You line up late?
    I was able to buy The Catch at one of the outside merch locations after night 1 last time and saw it still available multiple times over the next two days.

    That's not what happened with the Foos at Fenway. You placed and paid for your order directly off their website - which included photos of everything - and then went to the shop to pick up the merch you wanted. No mailing was available - you had to physically come and collect your goods. I'm not sure it included posters, but it did include shirts and other apparel, and even a band set of bobbleheads.

    In 2013 they had the trailer outside for two days prior to the show and there was a 4 hour wait.  I decided to ride the tram and see the city instead.

    This should produce about the same results as last time.

    I'll wait for the day of show and get merch inside.
