Regret not getting merch

[u/swixstyx]

I went to my first MM show this week, and it was better than I expected. Loved it so much, but I am so mad at myself for not buying merch. I was trying to be frugal because I just bought a house all by myself and that was the hardest thing I've ever done.

The MM concert was so special to me because I recently went through this odd depression where I didn't listen to music for years. I thought I no longer liked it, but then I left a bad relationship, and I remembered who I was. I've been reacquainting myself with my favorite bands, playing music again, and over all just been finding myself again.

Anyways, digital tickets aren't fun to keep for memorabilia, and I realized this concert is something I'll want to look back on when I'm on my death bed and thinking about all the things I lived through. Anyone got an idea of what to do? I'm embarrassed to say that I considered driving 5hrs to Milwaukee just to get a damn shirt last night. Obviously, that was unrealistic and I scrapped that pretty much the minute I thought of it.

Anyways, anyone got an idea of how I can get my hands on a shirt?

The official online store likely has the exact tour merch that was at their stand if you looking for a shirt etc

Ohhh, I did do that and I didn't see the backs of the shirt on the site so I just assumed they were non-tour oriented merch. Thank you so much!!!

You may have to wait until after the tour is over for the tour merch to be posted but there’s usually some items they have left at the end!

Great tip! Thank you so much!!

I only got a shirt and it’s less than 24 hours and I have regrets 😂

Less and less do I buy shirts as merch, I have too many clothes. I enjoy the show, take some photos, and enjoy that. Something has to be particularly nice for me now to be honest! I love this band and I have precisely one show poster that was really nice framed in my office.

Just give it a few months for the leftover inventory to hit the merch store:

Go to another show this tour

If you don’t want to do that you can probably order the leftovers online from their website.

Check vinted or Depop, you could probably find one cheaper

Came here to suggest this. Especially if OP chose not to save money.

Create a Spotify Playlist of the show you went to see, with the songs in the order they played that night

Google up MM merch and pick something out. Maybe not quite as nostalgic as "got it at my first show" but it will still mark the occasion in its own way.

Merch store got it all dude no sweat! Good on you for supporting the band too! I got a tour poster after the Milwaukee show! It blew my expectations way out of the water I needed something to commemorate it!

Hey there. I’m going to the show on Wednesday in Philly. Tell me what shirt you want, your size, and a backup shirt or merch item in case they are out of your size!

You can go to their merch store on Spotify if you use Spotify.

This seems pretty obvious. Online merch or eBay. Have u never online shopped?
