Merch at shows
So I'm aware that I'm a feeble inuit who rarely posts, but I was wondering (for those of you who have gone to shows thus far) what kind of Damien merch is there...assuming there is any. I'm heading to the Uncasville show and was wanting to find how much money I should have for eskimo swag. Cheers!

they had 2 damo shirts in indy: the one that looks just like the cover of "o" and one that had all of the lyrics to volcano on it. not the best shirts, and they cost 30 bucks a piece.

yeah they only had two shirts that i saw here at the noblesville indiana show. i can't remember one of them, but the other one was the drawing fromt he cover of "O" and the shirt was the same color was the case... and it cost $30... thats not worth it! the same shirt sells online for around 15 euros which is less the 30dollars! concerts are farrr to expensive and the swag wasn't even very good.

you guys are luckier than i was...there weren't any shirts when i saw him...just a couple lonley copies of O and a few eps...
it was perhaps the saddest merch table i've ever seen... but in a way it was kinda nice, seeing how he's not at all focused on that extra money gimmicking kind of thing....

yeah, i guess we weren't too lucky though. i'd never spend 30 dollars on a simple t-shirt that has the cover of "O" on it or the lyrics to "Volcano" ...it's just not worth 30bucks.

Um, I like the design there is now. The quality of it however, something to be desired. I mean, for 30bucks, at least let me be able to wash it without shrinking! p.s. I would like just the words "Accidental Baby" on my shirt! hehe Or damien have my accidental babies? lol

The B-sides cd and the two shirts were at the show in Minneapolis.... $30 is definitely excessive, but what do expect for concert tees?? Anyway, I obviously bought one.

there were a few Fiona t-shirts too...
but who'd want that? oh, and my friend told me today that his Volcano t-shirt already has a part of the lyrics that is peeling off his shirt... and he hasn't even washed it yet and has only had it since the 12th of this month...

you know, with the patchwork shirt it's the question if they should remake it as it looked originally, with bright colours and everything, or the 'current' one with a the colours faded... i think they should make a poll about that first then...

^^^ Tough call... I say bright colors like in the beginning so you have to make it authenticly faded by wearing it as often as he!! Oops, this was supposed to be a new poll...

recycled?
I would imagine..or, at least, hope that his merch is made from recycled products, organic hemp and stuff like that. doesn't sound like there is much of an array to choose from though.
i'm always a fan of buttons. free buttons, especially. or, coasters are always fun too. damien quotes on the back, 'cheers darlin' on the front. i am marketing genius! hehe patent pending. |

There was NO Damien merch in LA, Santa Barbara or even at his own headlining gig at the Mountan Winery. The only merch at the Mountain Winery was Pedestrian merch.
Oh, and I think $30 is too much for those shirts he's had at some of the shows. Those are the same shirts he's sold on previous tours for no more than $20. I mean, it's a t-shirt...
