LOL - Wait until you see the prices at the concerts!!!

This is one of my pet peeves. Why sell a t-shirt for $45? Sell it for $20, make 3 times as many, and sell 3 times as many. They probably cost about $.50 each to make. Why be so damn greedy?

You're actually not THAT far off with your pricing for making them.

T shirts and hoodies in particular cost next to nothing to produce especially if you're doing it on a world tour scale.

Aside from the fact most tour t shirts are shit, I wouldn't give a band the satisfaction of buying one and you get much cooler band t shirts for £5-10 on eBay.

The band get enough of our money in cds and tickets, I don't see the need to give them more for shoddy merch.
