Anyone else surprised they’d make merch off that song now of all times? Yeah - a bit odd and a bit risky too!?! We don’t need all that stuff dredged up again.

They were launched as part of the Lies anniversary series about 15 months ago, but it seems now some local stores are selling them again.

I have a theory that pretty much all the merch is automatically generated by bots They have all the song titles and album art, plus those generic skeleton pictures, so they have bots that jumble and mix it all together and are automatically put on the store. Same for the animated videos, they have generic animations and they just get pieced together and voilà! At least that's a better excuse than that people spend time making that stuff themselves 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackstar Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Slash has launched a face mask (GnR not yet ) https://www.slashmerch.com/ ----- I see Metallica are selling face masks, too. Out of curiosity, I went to their and AC/DC's merch stores and they're even worse than GnR's: baby bibs, clothes for dogs and flip flops But I guess the difference is, in Metallica's case at least, that they release music and shows, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, all that shit can be ignored easily when you have a constant stream of new music product.

Tourettes2400 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 The Official GN’R store has added a bunch of show specific shirts to the website. The only catch is that you must be a Nightrain member to purchase them.https://gnrmerch.com/collections/guns-n-roses-tour-merch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweersa Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 You would think they would offer the 2020 tour shirts to everyone online since they didn't sell many at the concerts. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR_RNR Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Tbf I don't mind them finally giving some minor benefit to having Nightrain (even if it's just the ability to spend more money). Some cool stuff there. Have they said anything about rolling over Nightrain memberships to next year? Considering the main appeal (early tickets) cannot be accessed? They should start doing 'loot-boxes' of unsold merch. Like $25 a month to get a random t-shirt+keychain tat, with a random chance to get the higher end stuff thrown in.

It's pretty much the only perk the fanclub has ever had.....unless you count being able to buy some of the worst tickets for a gig that won't sell out 24hrs before non-members can buy better ones of course. It's not like there's a shortage of GNR shirts in the world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaskingApathy Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Looks like these items are only available for 10 days. I wonder if they will be offered to the general public after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourettes2400 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) Got my Exit 111 Manchester shirt in today. Actually pretty fast from the official GN'R store. I put it up with my Louisville shirt and Litho. I'm actually pretty happy to have have the Exit 111 shirt because it was sold out the last night when I attended the concert, the night GN'R played.
