I get mocked enough here. I'm not going to open myself up to mocking at home.
Good lad.

Does that qualify as experimental?
I love you for this stip

We are entering a new era of RM. An era I'm not sure the old guard can survive.

I'm considering it. I only have Vitalogy on vinyl. If they reissued Binaural I would buy it with no hesitation.

I'm not sure I get this guy's grumble.
It's not like anything from the Fenway and Wrigley shows is a required purchase. Pretty much everything they've put out this month is classic rock band shit, and it will sell out.

The only reason I see for crying about it is if you wanted all that stuff and couldn't get it. Why is it a "turn off"?

It shouldn't take 4 hours to buy shit. They can't handle it. They need online (blind) preorders to help alleviate the problems. Fans want to spend money on merch. Show some fucking appreciation already.

THAT is a fair argument.

They should give Chicago ticket holders early access to these items via the website two weeks out.

Except that online sales would cut down on impulse buys from peeps who only wanted the sold out "thing".

Things either sell out online to ticket holders, or they end up in the merch stands. Shit, you could even offer up just half that stuff to fan club members.

No part of my idea prevents them from selling all the things.
