Two driving forces:
1. Evergrey wants to thank the fans that sold the show out on Wednesday by giving them first option at the shirts. I can enforce limiting purchases to the amount of people in attendance to keep it fair for those coming on Thurs.
2. The band can sell their own merchandise on Wednesday after the set and keep 100% of sales. All bands pay a percentage of their gross to the venue to inventory and sell for them in Center Stage (Thurs-Sat). Every dollar counts these days on tour.
You may disagree with the band on the first, but you have to respect the second.
it is all about money this days.....
i will buy my on wed but if the limitation is enforced i can buy for someone.....
i am a big fan of evergrey but i dont use metal T-shirts in a regular basis anymore.
I just hope they have a few XXLs. To borrow a quote from Truckules on Venture Bros, "This big ol' rig takes up two seats."
If I don't get one of these shirts I will cry buckets!Reminder - don't forget about your Evergrey shirt! The band really went out of their way to do something special just for us. Let's show them our support!

Evergrey are this year's first band to arrive in ATL!
Stan, you'll be happy to know that there are a few exclusive t-shirts left that will be on sale tomorrow night.
