N1 was terrible, we were in the line to get in an hour before doors opened. I don't know what GA had access to since they were let in first, but I only had roughly 20 people ahead of me in the merch line and the only show specific items left were the sticker and the tee in some sizes. I don't think they had any license plates or skate decks inside, at least not by the regular door time.

When did they start letting people in for N1 (I was at the bar skipping the opener, which I should have done for N2)?

N2 I got to the entrance at like 6:15pm and there was no line, so not sure when they opened the doors, but I figured that they let people in early because they were clogging up their casino. I got in one merch line and my wife the other and she said she saw the last flamingo shirt come off the wall as soon as she got in line.

They need to ditch the out of venue merch stand, and make sure to let the GA people in the same time as the seated people to give everyone an equal chance at the merch.

They let us in right around 6 on N1. I agree about ditching the outside merch stand or require a valid ticket to buy stuff. Letting just anyone buy things plus not making enough plus not having limits on things like the license plates is insane. Even the limit of 2 isn't enough on things like the tokens because they sell out too quickly. I don't see why they don't make more after seeing what happened last year.

What's the odds of getting a poster without standing in line before the show.

probably pretty good if you just get to the doors before they open

I bought too much merch of course, but I will say, the grey t shirt and the black hoodie are both sized right (for me) and love the weight of each.

No such thing as "too much merch!" 🤣

Yeah, nothing left for Nashville N2 either and we got there before doors. Scalpers here have had a heyday on this stuff for a long time. It really surprises me that a band that values its fanbase so much let people without tickets buy all the show specific items - I'm new to 10C. Has this been the practice in the past?

Seen it happened tons of times in the last 20 years.

One nice thing about Fenway as a venue has been merch going on sale days in advance of the first show. Gave us locals a chance to shop before the gypsies roll into town.

Unfortunately we have a permaclass of gypsies in Nashville due to so much industry stuff centered here. You should've seen the Taylor Swift merch lines last year - probably could've been viewed from space.

In my view - either keep the show specific items inside, or make enough so eBay sharks don't get inflated value for them.

Keeping certain stuff inside won’t stop anything. They’d just wait in the line to be the first inside or have GA and get in a half hour early.

Yeahbut, at least then merch would go to people with tickets - instead of letting any fool with a checkbook stroll up and take it all home.

I did that at Wrigley last year and got everything I wanted.

What are the tees like? 6oz cotton classic fit? Or more like those newer soft narrow lightweight “comfort” shirts?

runstaples · May 13

They seem better quality this time, a little thicker

I attended Nashville N1 (my first PJ show) and now regret not buying the tour shirt. Will the Dark Matter tour shirts be available for sale on the PJ website once the tour is complete? I understand that city specific ones are not typically available, I'm looking for the Strike Through tee that lists all of the cities. I will not buy unlicensed merch...and not quite sure how companies get away with selling unlicensed tees. They are all over the web. Ugh. Any info appreciated. Thanks!
