I bought a large at a gig and it definitely fits like a medium. I usually sit somewhere between medium and large, so glad I didn't opt for a medium. 

Sizes to run smaller at the gigs, so if in doubt go for the larger option would be my advice. 

You're referring to the show shirts, or all of them?

I bought the Europe tour one, so can only really speak for that, but I was quite surprised how small it was for a large.

Here’s a pit-to-pit measurement comparison between the Hyde Park gig tee and the Paris Merch Truck variant, both size L:

Cool to finally see the rest of the band acknowledged on some official show merch:

I'm stunned people are joining Nightrain. 

Basically you're just buying the merch, right? There's not a single other benefit to it. 

I like the t-shirt.. which also ships with:

Guns N' Roses Nightrain Pin

Surprise Nightrain Gift 

Guns N' Roses Nightrain Live CD

Guns N' Roses Nightrain Trucker Cap

Guns N' Roses Nightrain White Robot T-shirt

I have no idea what the surprise gift is? ..i guess that's what makes it a surprise. I have a feeling it might be a sticker? ..what else could it be???

A few people now have reported the bonus gift was the Hard Skool vinyl that was the fan club gift the year before.

I'd probably give them 5 dollars for the CD, but that's it. 

Free gift is the Hard Skool 7" as mentioned above.

I really like this one.

Speaking of official merch, it looks like some of the merch bags at the show includes a 20% discount to the GNRMerchTruck.

Nice, need me one of those codes!

Has any one noticed if the merch truck outside the stadiums opens earlier in the afternoon on the day of show? Going to STL show in a couple wks & hope to get my merch earlier in the day.

Good question. I’d like to know what time to arrive to be able to get a litho and a shirt that is my size. I showed up at 5:30 In Hershey and was too late for both

[6lake sa66ath]

The answer is, as early as you possibly can to avoid disappointment.

[telly]

I'm planning to go down there about 10 or 11am but thought somebody might have noticed if they had been opening up that early at previous shows

[DaneisKing1389]

For Metlife last night, I showed up at 4p for gates at 5p and was first in line to get in on that side. I floored it to the escalators to not be stuck behind lollygaggers and hustled up to the booth. I was first at the booth. They were all gone about 3 minutes later.

When I saw MSG/Prudential in 2017 and Columbus, OH, in 2021, I got there 15 minutes before door and was able to walk in and get them. Smaller venues, though, and the lithos are WAY more popular now. I saw two guys sprinting around trying to buy as many as possible, so you gotta compete with fuckos too.

A parcel arrived today. The bonus gift is the Hard Skool vinyl - Nightrain Limited-Edition Clear. The locker color on the sleeve is grey. From what i recall, the original single sleeve featured a red colored locker (..or am i thinking of the music video?) 

The XL t-shirt is looks excellent, made in India, not China, which makes a change.

The baseball cap is what it is. I am not into wearing baseball caps.

I'll check out the CD later - with some ice-cold beers

The G'n'R metal pin badge looks decent enough

-

On the subject of the 6 track CD, i wonder why they chose to include two cover songs? (Live and Let Die, Knockin'On Heaven's Door). I'd rather they used six G'N'R songs  ..i have never been a fan of the song Knockin'On Heaven's Door.

Matt Sorum on drums.. i wonder if he earn's anything from the 6 track CD ?

Was a nightmare trying to buy anything at Saitama shows in 2017, think they sold out of most event tees and lithos by 1pm, people rocking up with suitcases :/ Managed to get a litho at the second show for ZoSoRose by turning up not long after noon, but still gutted I couldn't get a Godzilla tee.

[telly]

Maybe I asked the wrong question.  Is there a merch truck outside the venues at the shows on this tour?  I've not seen them since 2017 at a stadium and know they had a merch truck at those.  Or at least the ones I attended did.  I'm screwed if they don't as won't be able to get there until about 6 w the fiancee as she'll be working that day.

Saw merch tents outside arena at Paris and outside stadium in Bucharest.

Got to Hyde Park at about 10:45am and all of the posters were already sold out (at least for non VIP folk)

Yep, similar predicament, there was an outside venue merch stand on the Marble Arch end that sold them before the show, first guy who got there was around 8am from what he told me and ended up queuing just behind him for the early entry VIP where luckily was able to secure one at the stand within that entrance.

Have seen no pics or much intel at all from this North American leg so far...

MetLife had mini merch stands set up around the entire inside of venue.

Are you still looking for a godzilla tee?

I looked on eBay but they all go for ridiculous prices :/

[Old_school_gnr_fan]

I could have tried wedging this question into the “Perhaps” thread, but as it pertains to the “Magic 8 Ball” being sold on the official store website:

I figure one of the answers you get when you shake the ball is “Perhaps”. Do you suppose the other answers are related to GN’R related songs or events?
 

For example, maybe one of the answers is “You’re Crazy”, or another answer is “Not In This Lifetime”. Alternatives to the basic “yes” and “no” that you would get on a basic magic 8 ball.

The description on the website doesn’t detail anything, but I assume “Perhaps” is one of the answers found on it. I’m not planning to buy it, but I may suggest it as a Christmas gift if someone in my family doesn’t have any gift ideas for me.
