    How much were the basketballs in the US?  I found it weird that anybody would want a basketball with Pearl Jam on it. Same goes for a soccer ball (football :))
    There's certain pieces of merch that look cool at first but then I'm like what the hell am I really gonna do with this. Skate decks, basketballs, hockey jerseys.

    But if I had a solid plan to display one of these things I'd almost certainly drop the cash. I mean of course it's going to be more expensive than what you find in a sporting goods store. You're not buying it to use it. One of the balls anyway.
    I do get the connection with PJ and basketball and that makes a little bit of sense. But like you said, you're certainly not going to use it.  Just put it on a shelf? All it says is Pearl Jam and some of the ten cover art on it.  Nothing fancy at all. Just seems weird to me.  But to each their own!  I know they were a big seller as I expect the soccer balls will be too

    It is all just “stuff” but most people buy it for the memory attached to it and get enjoyment out of seeing it on a shelf.  I’ve passed on a lot of merch because I just don’t have a good spot to display it.  I have around 20 framed posters on the wall in our home office and I really get a lot of joy from the memories of shows I’ve attended and I love the artwork.  If I had room for other stuff I would probably pick up a few more things but I’m not buying stuff anymore just to save in a box.  If I can’t use it or see it regularly I’m probably going to pass on it.  But like you said… to each his own and people should collect what they like.

    Hey Folks - hope everyone is doing ok out there. It’s a massive honour to make my first @pearljam poster in 4 years. I had a blast doing this. So much to work with for a show in Ireland and I decided to work on the idea of a banshee (hence the poem on the back). This one is a 7 colour 18x24 screenprint and I will have AP’s available for those that want one some time next week - stay tuned! A huge thankyou as always for @mrtsurt and @ianwilliamsart for being lovely and having me back. I think my first Pearl jam poster was 18 years ago! Anyway, have fun if you are in Dublin! X #pearljam #screenprinting #concertposter #gigposters #illustrationartists #kentaylor #kentaylorart


    Winder what the variant color will be? 
    There is no variant - Ken Taylor posted a comment somewhere (think in his FB group) that he was given an option to have a variant AP and he tried it but the green was by far the best so decided for APs to be the same 
    Thanks for the news - now I can just wait for the SE to be sold in the shop. I don't like paying an extra $55.-65. for an artist's pencil signature and numbering, anyway. It is a strikingly awesome poster, for sure!

    I just can't believe they think there's a market for footballs when soccer is the big sport in Europe...
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    How many € did t-shirts cost during the 2022 Euro Tour?

    Sorry guys, but competition balls are not cheap. Not sayin the Pearl Jam balls are official game quality. 
    Also, they call soccer, football here 🤪

    The difference is one you can use in a pro match. The pj one. You would lose on a beach when the wind blows. Massive

    Manufacturing soccer balls in the millions like Adidas is able to do is way cheaper than a custom order of a few thousand.  Adidas likely makes a bigger profit margin on the sales than Pearl Jam does.

    Yeah, but the balls they are starting with probably aren't great or expensive, even if you throw your logo on there. I'm sure PJ makes some coin on them otherwise they wouldn't be doing it.

    Not even comparable. Sports direct sells equivalent balls for 5 pounds
