So is there going to be merch inside the stadium at all?

I assume so. There were lots of merch booths inside Fenway.

The day before the second show at Fenway was great for merch. Got everything I wanted (poster free 5 years!), no lines.

You mean the guy who taught me to always buy two posters, even if you only want one, has stopped buying them?

I would love to quit merch. It's too much time and stress at times.

We framed the beehive/NC poster from the first LB tour, 'coz it fit with the color scheme really well (plus Mrs. Trag is from NC).
But man, otherwise? I think the last merch item I bought was the PJ20 book.

Same.

My new personal policy is: if I get to the front of the line and there are posters left, I'll buy a poster and some sort of cheap souvenir. So the last two tours I've gotten a poster + a stick and a poster + a pack of cards. It helps keep things sane to not just obsess over having everything.

Fuck merch, this is getting close.

Thunderstorms, some severe at 90% chance during day, 50% chance for night.
I have a not so good feeling about this.

on the contrary, Monday looks absolutely perfect.

Heads up to anyone using a Hilton hotel this weekend, they just cut prices on Chicago. Rebooking saved me over $30 a night.

Is the second one Reaper-Trump with a "divided America" pussyball?

[CopperTom]

I thought pussy too. I don't get that.

[CopperTom]

Literally, figuratively or artistically- I don't get it.

So, in my opinion, Klausen wins. But it brings a question up for me. If you attended a show where the artists releases a variant of the poster from their website, would you want to own both posters or just the one you got at the show?

[CopperTom]

If I was a Mariners fan and attended the shows, I would want that variant.

[Bi_3]

can we sit and appreciate the Mike pointing joke in that poster?
