The insanely high priced shirts that are usually direct to garment printed on low quality blanks typically leads me to either skip the merch altogether or just go tip the band if they are working their own table. I’d rather just give them $10 than pay those prices for cheap shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find myself tipping more as of late rather than getting a cheap quality shirt that’s just gonna shrink in the first wash. Either that or I buy a print if I like it and tip. I see some photos on IG where it’s $35 at other venues and that’s still too high. It’s hard to tell but they at least look like the soft line of perhaps Alternative Apparel or the like, but still, $35 is a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 Show was incredible. So glad I got off the couch. Hoping they have @jbannon make gig posters for the shows coming up this weekend in Mass and Jersey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronchitis Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 I’m jealous of some of the posters I have seen for other shows. The Aaron Turner ones for Portland are AWFUL. twatay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the poster at the Austin show and that one is pretty cool, though I forget the artist’s name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedshabazz Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 (edited) I have a ticket to the jersey show but cant go now due to a family medical emergency. Its free to a good home. Went from having tickets to 2 of these shows to now being able to attend zero. Life happens and here we are. if someone is willing to grab me a shirt id appreciate it.

prowl20 Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Boston set was nuts. to whomever told me to “get in shape” before seeing Botch, the crowd reaction was crazy but not “punch yourself in the face” crazy. It’s so quiet here… now I have Hutton’s Great Heat Engine stuck in my head hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same guy who did a ton of stuff for Sub Pop over the last 15 years (probably most known for The Shins album cover). I like most of the show posters I've seen. I have the Portland one and I think Aaron Turner did a great job with it. I love the Ricky Beckett one for the Boston show, would definitely grab one if they have leftovers.
