Check it out!

A couple cool hats, 2 t-shirt designs, and a 5% discount for TPT.com members (but you don't have to be a member to shop there. I'm posting the non-member link.)

Rumor has it there's going to be a lot more stuff soon.

I got cut the look of death after saying, "ooo I want the Synchronicity t-shirt" yesterday...after the tickets I bought for two shows and the SCnet shirt...hehe...I'm usually so temperate and budget oriented but lately, been going off the rails on the crazy train :)

$38 for a t-shirt is pretty insane. But if they will come-out with an official tour shirt I'll snatch-up two or three regardless.

For something much cheaper, I recently bought a black 'Syncronicity' tee at (out of all places) Hot Topic for $18 and they are widely available, just so you know. Of course I'll be rocking mine come June 6th.

I think I'm going to get that one.[/quote]

Hah. I just bought that last week.

The Ghost hat is pretty cool.

But not for $30.

Don't they know we're all completely broke right now after buying all those tickets??

:shock:

(The Ghost sweat-tee that The Gap had a couple months ago was awesome, though...)

$38 is nothing. I paid $52 for a Broken Music shirt. Start eating your rice and beans everyone! Just wait until you get to that merch booth at the gig. :shock:

Haw!! I bet they put that Police logo on *everything*...

Who here is prepared to buy emblemated terry cloth headbands and leg warmers? ;)

Mmmmmmm you got me thinking Divemistress.

Maybe they could do Sting & Andy Yoga Mats or what about a wall chart with Stewart (wearing his leotard) demonstrating his crazy pool exercises? (Jane Fonda - eat your heart out!)

And for everyone who's strapped for cash a Police Tour Tea Towel...Cheap but cheerful & functional as well.

Would we buy this stuff?


Probably!

They probably do know we are skint after buying tickets........I think the overwhelmingly clear point is that nobody gives a shit about the fans as long as we are emptying our pockets into the police coffers.

I'm suprised you dont have to join another special club to buy Tshirts......maybe "the police true believers merchandise society" one year membership £25 allows you one item at a discount price.

Go on then, tell me i'm being unfairly cynical.

I'm english, its in my DNA.

Bah.

The hats are all wrong.

If the Fidel Hat had the Ghost logo, then I'd have one.

And I wish they would stick with the original Police typeface, not the Ghost or Sync one (which has dated terribly).

The t-shirts are pretty awful too.

I would just like a regatta t-shirt, can you still get them officially?

Up untill v recently you could buy regatta,zenyatta, ghost and synchro t shirts from the NME store in the uk..they were £14.99.

I suspect you will still be able to find them online.......i will post some links if i can find them.

How about they sell official Police stamped addressed envelopes.

We could buy the envelopes, put Cheques or money in them and send them straight back......it would streamline the entire process !


again

Bah!

Hey people, remember we have a few t-shirts left in stock at the merchandise section! It would be nice to spot fans or forumers a the shows!
