Posters pricing question

Can anyone who’s been to the shows give some inspire on the pricing for the posters they keep sharing on instagram? I want one but fancy concert posters like those are usually really pricy so i wanna be prepared. Thanks!

Poster tubes at the shows?

Anyone know if they’re selling poster tubes at the merch tables for the posters?

And/or if you can bring an empty one inside? If you’re spending $40-100+ on a piece of paper (essentially lol) I want to keep it super safe throughout the night. I know this probably varies by venue, but figured I’d ask for those who caught the first few shows.

Is anyone from Seattle/Tacoma going to the Portland show on the 15th?

I got tickets to their show at Moda Center but none of my friends can go! Is anyone else going or interested that might want to go together? I’d be okay going to the concert alone, but honestly making a new friend to road trip down with sounds like fun so I figured I’d see if anyone’s interested. I have an extra nosebleed seat I might be willing to share with someone that seems chill.

Proof that Crooked Teeth is just I Want it That Way, but in a more interesting time signature (mashup I just made)

I Want Crooked Teeth That Way

Death Cab for Cutie - Crooked Teeth
vs
Backstreet Boys - I Want it That Way

Rather proud of this one - it'd been bugging me for the past decade and a half, when we sang this song in an a cappella group in college, that they are basically the same song, other than the difficulty of stuffing a 4/4 song into a mixed 4/4 + 6/4 song. Just realized, the best place to find other people who would find that interesting would probably be fans of the band in question. Definitely a significant improvement over the original Backstreet Boys song, backing-wise. :D

Where is St. Peter’s Cathedral (as in the song)?

I’ve found there are a lot of cathedrals called St. Peter’s Cathedral. Is he talking about a specific one?

Orlando had horrible concert etiquette

Death cab shows are usually pretty chill but man…. People were talking in the middle of songs, smoking weed and blowing huge clouds of smoke everywhere…definitely a far cry from what I’m used to at DCFC shows :/ idk if anybody else had the same experience. I don’t even mind the smoking/vaping as much…at least zero your hits or something.

Wedding Crashers soundtrack

The sound of settling is the first track listed on the soundtrack. I cant find the song anywhere in the movie at all. Not even credits. Does anyone know what scene the song is played in? This is driving me nuts!!

Concert etiquette

I just returned from the Atlanta show and DCFC and Postal Service were amazing! However I wanted to share a PSA based on tonight’s experience.

Dear fans/redditors, do not have full conversations like if you’re at a bar in the middle of a song, especially at a slow tempo song such as Passenger Seat. It’s very rude, people paid good money to see the band and not hear other concert goers have mundane conversations. There were two people talking loudly during a slow song in the area where I was seated and they were rude when other fans asked them to keep it quiet.

I’ve never had experienced this in previous concerts, I was at Ameris Amphitheater two weeks ago for another show and nobody behaved that way.

Hopefully this situation doesn’t happen in the rest of the tour. Please be excellent to each other and enjoy the show!

Anyone have an extra copy of Live at the Showbox on vinyl? Hit me up!

My records seem lonely and I’d so love to listen to Live at the Showbox on my record player! I had to hang with my grandpa instead on record store day and I missed out.

The three sacred trinities

I think many of you hold up the album Transatlanticism as peak Death Cab and I suspect a good chunk of you are looking forward to hearing that album cover to cover very soon! So some of you would probably agree with me in that Tiny Vessels, Transatlanticism, and Passenger Seat are the first sacred trinity of the catalogue. For me, those three songs tell one story .. one of indulgence, regret, and redemption .. and work as good together as any set of songs they have. Once Tiny Vessels starts, I have to make it through all three.

But Plans would like a word! I've always thought What Sarah Said was an amazing song, one of the absolute best pieces of art they ever produced. And as for Brothers on a Hotel Bed, if there were one song a non-fan wanted to listen to as an quality, general introduction .. well, it's Brothers for me. Those two are so good I will include the smoothly reskinned Stable Song to make the second sacred trinity of the catalogue.

And then there's Codes and Keys. Really! Doors Unlocked and Open is an amazing romp of a song where the band just drags you along on a ride .. the words almost don't matter, but they still work well. Then Tourist .. THE hit song and I think one of Walla's best bits of guitar work and production. Only when I started listening to C&K again did I come to realize that, yeah, throw Unobstructed Views behind those two and you have another string of three amazing songs. I've always been a little anti-UV .. it's a little too listless, too funky without committing to it .. and someone once called it the "spiritual successor to the song Transatlanticism", which is a hard no, lol. But it does really work. While Doors picks you up and drags you along, UV just lets you kind of float .. space out and just be while Ben sings .. something, doesn't really matter .. in your ear.

That's all. I just found myself groovin' to Unobstructed Views and was confused, so this is where I got to. Feel free to opine, critique, or share other sets or groupings of songs that stand out to you.

why is everyone acting like the postal service is bigger than death cab?

imo death cab is clearly the bigger more popular band (as opposed to a project), but on the tour, its death cab that opens and the postal service with the bigger name. Even on merch the postal service is ranked higher. Is the postal service actually more popular than dcfc? If i was a member of dcfc (not ben or dave) I think Id be upset to be opening for the ps- do people agree?
