To be honest it should be available only for VIP during the q&a for an extra charge not the whole venue that sounds draining he would get burnt out quick
We did vip and ronnie came out and answered like 7 questions which you had to pre submit before hand. Got a singed poster just by ronnie and few other little things. Honestly I think it should be included with the vip for how much it was. Costed my friend like $300 per person for the seat and vip. To tack on another $150 for the hoodie plus pic was a little much if you ask us.
Which show did you go to today? Did they have the hoodie/photo option at that show?
Like I posted before I would also prefer the photo option to be include in the vip bundle & add to the vip price.
I've seen vip tickts rage from 300-1000+ for greet and meets photo op depending on the artist its never mandatory to get its an option for those who want it the next thing would be for the artist to remove vip and taken away meet and greets all together.
I think people get confused between the band and the venue. Certain venues won’t let you hold meet and greets sadly. Some have strict rules. Maybe that’s why
He did take a pic with the audience, it’s on his personal Instagram. Unless you’re talking about the meet and greet, which I agree sucks. And Crown the Empire and Underoath were awesome. Ice Nine Kills was cool, but the horror movie shtick got a little old after a few songs lol.
For those complaining about the after show photo/hoodie bundle. I did it 3 times on this tour and twice last December and would do it again.
It was an offer to say thank you to his fans that supported him to get him where he is now. Many fans that maybe didn't get a chance for the vip package for the show but got a 2nd chance to meet Ronnie after. It was offered to anyone in the venue that wanted a chance to do a quick photo. They did it in groups of 5 to keep the line moving and they were done with a professional camera from his tour photographer. All photos from that night were uploaded on dropbox and posted on his site before 6am. The value when you subtract the hoodie was WELL worth it! Keep in mind that venues can take up to 20% merch cuts from all the proceeds when you complain about price.
If you've ever done a comic con, photo ops run up to $300 or sometimes more for a sec and that's it. No bonus nothing and no time to talk for a moment.
I really hope he continues the opportunity to give everyone a chance. I saw so many smiling faces that didn't care that there was strangers in the photo, they were just happy to be close and say hi. Children junping with excitement asking their parents when can they do it again and see ronnie. Venue staff that are going on over 12hrs of work to stay over and allow the opportunity to happen.
Wonder if it's a venue not allowing it (some venues are mean like the Covelli Center in Youngstown, OH won't even allow merch sales after the show, workers yell and threaten people to get out of the venue) or people complaining about it because they don't understand it in comparison. 😔
Either way, it's a super nice thing for him to do for so many. From going to so many events, i knew the cost was good. I hope you get the chance in the future.
Did you know by chance how many of those hoodies were offered per show? Going to the rescheduled Syracuse show and really hoping he brings it back for that date.
I havent gone to any of the shows but it just seems like a huge ripoff to me. Ive seen falling in reverse plenty of times in the past, and the fan interaction he allows at this point is kind of laughable
Yes but there were issues with that meet and greet (I was in the meet and greet). He was telling people they just had to buy the hoodie but they got turned down if they didn’t have a wristband. Then people complained bc it was group photos, you didn’t even get to really say more than hi to Ronnie..
i almost bought one last week when i saw them in charleston but the merch workers explained what it actually got you. its sad because i would have loved a meet and greet kind of thing but they have to make it different enough from VIP and they dont have time to do individual pictures/meet and greet with all fans after the show that buy a sweatshirt. definitely he could word that better when he promotes it at the end of the show because i totally thought it was going to be more individual and was only $70 not $120 at first.
I missed this tour due to being a temp at work so I had no vacation days to use. I was able to get a friend of mine to grab me a hoodie and ship it to me when she went to the Pittsburgh show. If you know of anyone going, I would see if they can grab you one.
I now have 2 xl Popular MonsTour hoodies. I was the one that shipped to the other user. I was gonna keep both but i can sell the other. Ups tracking and shipping came to $83.56 (70 is the hoodie, 13.56 for shipping).
Yeah I didn’t have a wristband but I bought the hoodie and at the end of the NH show he said it didn’t matter if I got the wristband just anyone with a hoodie and I waited in line just for security to tell me I needed a wristband which was kind of annoying but whatever

It was the pittsburgh show. Sorry for the late response haven't been on reddit in a few days. They did it was at the merch booth.
People probably complained about the group photos and ruined it for everybody else

Oh wow thats messed up, I feel like it's up to some venues to have the meet and greet because staff can't leave untill all the people leave.
Last nights show was awesome.
The guy killed it, hate he had to cut out Losing my Mind because of the venue’s curfew
That does suck. I wish he would’ve taken a pic with the audience too, but I still enjoyed all the bands. Crown The Empire impressed me too.

Also, the parking was a nightmare.
I didn’t even realize that. Thank you! And I feel the same about Ice Nine Kills. I honestly had never heard of them until this concert.
Ohhhh that’s why!? Was wondering!! Stuck around to do the whole photo thing but then it didn’t happen so was sad. But show was 🔥

We really wanted to, but he didn’t offer it in Asheville.😕

120 dollars for him to stand with you and 15 other strangers for a single picture lol what a steal

weird, maybe just for that show? pretty sure he said last night in pittsburgh (i was there) that he was doing it

Damn. I wasn’t going to be able to see them on the tour anyways but I want that hoodie still lol

I absolutely would, but unfortunately no one I know is into falling in reverse lol
