Concert Lots and the Allure of Moment Merch!

Jake Krolick and Vinnie Driscoll discuss merch from concert parking lots and a live podcast.

In the second episode of The Event Podcast, Jake Krolick discusses with Vinnie Driscoll some of the interesting promo products he found and how they were used at three events: a concert featuring The Grateful Dead, a concert featuring Phish, and a live podcast of How Did This Get Made? 

Event #1 Grateful Dead Concert Lot

Unlicensed hats that sold like crazy. Despite being illegal, the lesson here is the power of brand collaborations. 

Event #2 Phish Concert Lot

Phish's concert lot elevates brand merchandise thanks in part to Section119.

Event #3 Live Podcast

The hosts of How Did This Get Made? re-enact scenes from B-movies during a live podcast.

In the bottom-left is the cat T-shirt design created from the live podcast Jake attended. This is a perfect example of doing moment merch, a hot trend in the promo products industry.
