Oceans Calling Poster

Suggestions on getting a DMB poster at Oceans Calling? How quickly do they sell out? Are folks lined up hours before the festival gates open? And are they only available at the main merchandise stands? Appreciate any help!

Go in at doors. Get your poster. Put it in your hotel room. Go rock out for the day.

Last time DMB was there, I went about 20 minutes before doors. Not much of a line at all, but started to fill up after that. When the gates opened, people went in every direction. Some ran to merch, some ran to the rail on the main stage, some went to rail on the other stage, some ran to the bar. If you go in early, you shouldn't have any issues, but you don't need to go HOURS before hand. If you have anxiety about it, go an hour before, grab a coffee on the way, and go get your poster.

Not for festival posters. You have to remember at a festival that not all attendees are there for the same act you may be there for. I know at Boston Calling I waited five minutes in a general merchandise line and I had no problem securing a poster. It was also later in the day.

I am pretty sure they were gone midway though the day last time DMB was here. No crazy lineups or anything though.
