Can someone in UK tell me what the going price of shirts at a UK concert please?

They were 35 Euros last Autumn so £35 this year I assume.

Or see here: [Store.DigitalStores.co.uk] - change the currency in the upper right corner to GBP.

Prices from the 2017 Tour (in EUR): [iorr.org] .

Yeah I wanted to get a hoodie until I saw the £70 price tag. Just a regular screen print. That must be at least £60 mark up.

Overpriced these days. Tip, Tesco occasionally do decent Stones t-shirts for a tenner.

I wonder if they'll sell hoodies this time around. The 2017 ones didn't sell very well and are still available on RS.com – overpriced…

You could try primark or Zara, they occasionally have stones items in.

Just picked up a DT hoodie, that I regretted not buying when there, from
merchbar on sale. My new favorite site to buy official merch- most of it less expensive than official prices.

Snowboarder Trevor Andrew got the gig for the new/ 2nd half
‘No Filter’ design.
Huh.
[www.google.com]
Did all 4 RS vote on this?

ETA: quote from above on getting a Gucci gig:
Now that he's returned from his first Milan Fashion Week ever, Andrew can hardly believe his luck. Later this week, he's getting the phrase "It was all a dream" tattoed on his left arm.


I’m reserving my opinion as I realize fashion/art is subjective.
And, perhaps the marketing base isn’t me.

Well they cant get much worse than last years. I mean some were OK but many of the event specific designs were really awful.

What I want to see is a frontal pic of band on a shirt they havent done that so since 03 tour.No doubt the various tour tongues will surface again.

The tongue has slightly changes with somme green background it didn't have in 2017.
One purchase necessary to complete the collection ;-)

Here is the link to the RS store with the new designed apparel to support their latest (last ever?!) tour
‘No Filter Part 2’ UK tour
[therollingstonesshop.com]

I rarely critize, luckily I don’t have to, however
to pick a skateboarder with a 1 off at Gucci that he can’t believe himself is qualified for,
WTF.
Sure, I have a lot of ‘No Filter’ items from the Fall Euro tour.
But this set of clothing to go with this last tour? No. I don’t like it.
And having Mick wear it while performing won’t change it. Sorry. Disappointed.

Yes the new stuff is ghastly as far as Stones merch goes- anyone with a can of spray paint could have done this, and many could have done it better.
Not knocking graffiti art, but like you said even he can't believe he's qualified - it has a punk rock aesthetic that's been outdated since 1979.
The worst Stone merch I've ever seen for any tour, and add the outrageous prices, it's a joke.

On the bright side lol, there's bound to be massive clearance sales when hardly any of this stuff sells - but I wouldn't pay $10 for a t-shirt, and definitely would never wear one.

I've bought some shirts from this site recently.

Same stuff as the Stones official site but cheaper and better shipping!

Read the link you posted above but still a little confused..
It looks to be just the one shirt perhaps the skateboarder dude designed/collaborated on?? Not a fan of this or last years main tour logo, but some of the individual concert tees weren't too bad.. If this (below) is his only design, I'd say it's an improvement.


TREVOR ANDREW X STONES BLACK LOGO TEE
REGULAR PRICE
$35.00


Trevor Andrew x Rolling Stones Limited Edition Collaboration. Design printed on a soft black t-shirt.

There's also a white youth tee, a red hoodie, a scarf, and sleeveless black hooded top.

Trevor Andrew

The t-shirts and posters from individual shows will definitely be an improvement - anything will be an improvement.

Thanks..
Looks like just the one logo/script design tho. Thats good.
Also was for No Filter 1 , based on the dateback shirt (?)
Hadn't looked at before. Hard pass.

I hope they come up with more creative ideas for the shirts this time. Apart from Barcelona and Munich, I did not like a single one of the "special" shirt designs or lithos

I won’t wear it either, even if Mick does
On the bright side, think of how crestfallen I’d be if the 50 and counting
was my tour and I got the gorilla GRRRRRRR

I do not like it at all. Maybe it is designed to attract younger fans or fans of the skateboarder's fans .... all about the market and the money....

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR....

While GRRRRRegory the Gorilla was an all around bad idea, at least whoever rendered the artwork had some legitimate skills unlike this Trevor skateboarder dude.



And I don't think GRRRRRegory the Gorilla made his way on to much of the merch, although I think there was a Grrregory litho and possiblty a t-shirt?
Not sure as I avoided it completely, but in hindsight he's kind of grown on me...I watched the classic 1933 original version of King Kong last night and kept thinking of GRRRRRegory. GRRRRRRR

If I'm not mistaken, this was the standard design:



Pretty sure the London show you're attending will have a classic/quality design...I'm thinking the Tower Bridge w/ a giant tongue superimposed and hovering behind it.

Wow on the London bridge. I won’t see it, unless my cab crosses it to/fro the airport.
I love Gorillas IRL, not Gregory
and ‘Gregory’? Do I want to know how he became named?
We had a mascot for a second?
Nevermind

Argh 35love, if you have a spare couple of hours you could walk along the river...or maybe take a two hour touristy river cruise !
Westminster Bridge, Waterloo Bridge, Jubilee Bridge, London, Bridge, etc., and all the sights of the city from the perspective of the river - including the Tower of London!

Back in college, I had to memorize and recite a short poem for a literature class and chose this poem by William Wordsworth.

Composed upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802

_{(spoken in best proper English accent )}

Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty:
This City now doth, like a garment, wear
The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie
Open unto the fields, and to the sky;
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Never did sun more beautifully steep
In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill;
Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
The river glideth at his own sweet will:
Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;
And all that mighty heart is lying still!
____________________________________________________________

Or as the Kinks so eloquently described the river in Waterloo Sunset:

"Dirty old river, must you keep rolling, rolling into the night..."

________________________________________________________________



_{(Claude Monet, "The Houses of Parliament, Sunset", 32" x 36", 1903)}

PS - Not sure how GRRRRegory was named, but though it had to do with another GRRRReatest Hits compilation?
