What do you think the t-shirts/merchandise will be like?

[lauramullen]

They might sell it on U2.com in a few weeks

 

[kennerado]

Yeah I wouldn't worry, they produce those shirts in mass amounts. They will put them up on the site like they did for the croke park shirts in 2005.

 

[lauramullen]

They have Barcelona, Paris, Amsterdam and Nice on there already.

My Croke Park shirt shrank a little.

my crazy tonight shirt too. but it also does not have the same quality like my olive shirt (with band's heads on the front) which is 100% cotton. I don't know if I'll buy a shirt again, but I'll look out for this problem then.

 

[lauramullen]

I bought a medium, but I could fit into a small. I purposely buy a medium in case it shrinks a little

and when the tour ends they put them on sale because only people who went to the show want to buy them - like the MSG show shirts they had on sale last time...

 

[lauramullen]

I don't feel right about buying a shirt for a show I didn't go to. Like if I bought the Barcelona shirt and didn't actually go to Barcelona

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I know what you mean

 

[two shots]

I have decided not to worship on the altar of merchandise, but to go to a second gig instead.

 

[Galeongirl]

Still tempting to buy an amsterdam t-shirt. I do still have the discount voucher.

 

[lauramullen]

I have my coupon too. I may use it to get a shirt later on. I like the Loose Electricity shirt, but I may get it at one of the NA shows

 

[bonoz]

So if I am U2.com member... how do I get discount?

 

[lauramullen]

When you signed up they sent you an email with a coupon that is good for a year

So did it shrink in the dryer or just by washing it? I normally don't dry my U2, Edun or RED shirts since I'm paranoid they'll get damaged.

 

[lauramullen]

It shrank in the dryer. It didn't shrink much and it still fits great

 

[Galeongirl]

You shouldn't put EDUN t-shirts in the dryer. They're made of a softer cotton that shrinks. /late

Two new t-shirts available in London! Unknown Caller theme'd! I like them!

 

[coolian2]

those unknown caller ones are pretty cool. everything else on there looks a bit crap.

 

[last unicorn]

I bought two of the official shirts and like them a lot. I think the new Unknown Caller shirts are really cool.

I bought two in S but M would fit perfectly now! (after washing it) ..grr!

 

[Jsweeting]

Any Elbow merch at all?

No "loose electricity" shirts in Zagreb. I bought the shirt with the claw illustration.

 

[lauramullen]

I like the new ones. How come they put new stuff out as the tour moves on.

 

[the edges plec]

£22 each is not too bad,I think I might go for a symbol one.

 

[LyricalDrug]

Anyone know what kind of font is used for the 'Infinity is a great place to start' line that's printed on the back of track jacket / zip-up sweatshirt? Is it in block/computer lettering, like on the front, or is it that swooshy Achtung Baby font, that they used to print "infinity is..." on the side of their tour plane? Hopefully the latter...

 

[lauramullen]

I have the jacket and will take a pic and post it for you. Just give me a sec

 

[lauramullen]

 

[corianderstem]

I like the idea of the Unknown Caller shirts, but I'd prefer another phrase. I'd love one that said "Restart and reboot yourself" or "Shout for joy if you get the chance."

What's the deal with the shirt with the red lipstick smooch mark? I guess it's a "future needs a big kiss" reference, but yuck.

 

[LyricalDrug]

thanks lauramullen ... i ordered the sweatshirt sight unseen, and i'm psyched i did!

maybe they drop shirts that don't sell well at the start of the tour, and replace them with new ones as the tour goes on?
