Old Tour Merchandise

[FinsUp6835]

They just announced that you can purchase some old tour merchandise on the mailboat records website. Seems like it goes back to Welcome to Finland and it’s still “concert full price”

I'm usually only interested in purchasing merchandise for a concert I attended. And if something 'goes back to', would prefer if it was over 10 years ago or more. Your mileage may vary.

Some of the items go back as far as the 2007 tour

Have to disagree here. As long as I really liked the setlist of that particular show/tour, the year was somehow significant to me and I also really like the t-shirt design and tour name that is on the shirt, I have no hesitation about going back and purchasing it either at the Mailboat website or on Ebay even if I did not actually physically attend the concert. The reasoning is, since we cannot go back in time and relive those shows again but wish we could (of course we can go back and listen to the audio here on BN but can't actually go back in time and be there), having the shirt is the best possible way to try and relive it.

Then again, I'm speaking as someone who is usually content with listening to all his concerts on Radio Margaritaville and/or watching them on Marg TV and don't always feel the need to actually be there every single year. Don't get me wrong, the only concert I have ever actually physically attended- 2012 Lounging at the Lagoon at Great Woods- was an unforgettable, life changing experience. But sometimes I would rather spend my money on other Buffett related things- collecting lots of music downloads, vinyl, old tour merchandise, etc- instead of spending it on actually being there at the show every year. Guess it's just a matter of personal preference.
