Canadian Merch?
« on: July 10, 2012, 07:49:23 PM »
So, I am wondering how much cash to bring to the two Alberta shows for some Melvins goodies and am wondering what (if anything) they have with them this tour. Last time i saw them at Sled Island they didn't bring a freaking thing, but 12 years ago they had a fair amount. Anybody east know what they got?

fanks!

I'm under the impression that they quit bringing merch to Canada because they've had trouble bringing it in at the border.  Listen to "The Zone" radio interview for more details.

However, don't quote me on that.  It's possible they have merch but I doubt it.  It also seems like someone mentioned there was none in NYC.

They've had two t shirts, and I think that's it.

I didn't even notice the merch in NYC. I bought a really cool Sugar Daddy poster at the gallery. Where were they selling shirts?

Well, shirts are better than nothing, like last time, in 2010 when I drunkenly asked Buzz why the fuck there was no merch at all. Like 20 bucks a shirt or something I would imagine?

I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THEM TOMORROW and FRIDAY, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Ok, first of all 25 bucks they charge, thats a fuckin ROCK BOTTOM RICKY! ok seriously...

I bought one 12 years ago from them for the same price, I think it was still damn modest THEN even.

wow, Im an idiot for not buying BOTH, I had just enough cash for the one, And I guess I still want the other one, and dont hesitate to tell me how I can still get one for that cheap without going to the show (which will actually cost a lot more in the end just for a t shirt)

I knew then I wanted both, but I guess Its my fault for not knowing if the ATM inside worked or not, I should have got more outta the bank before the show  :(

someone get me a shirt at the next show and I guess I can pay ya back or something if it works. That would be thoughtfull if someone did that.

let me know dudes, maybe I can just get one directly online, I dont know where, let me know someone.

I will cover shipping even if necessary.

I wonder, I bought Size Large and it fit me like a medium, Maybe Im getting fatter, or bigger...either way it fit right and my hats of to the SELLER, fits PERFECT! LOVE IT!!! THANKS!!!  :D :D :D :D :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Cheers!

They had two shirts at the Montreal show. The pig one and the flower one.

They mention in the Canadian tour diary that they didn't bring up any merch. My guess is that they had them made up here and picked them up before the MTL show.
