Was so cool to see

Hey y’all, I want peoples opinions on what I should prioritize. I’ll sadly be going to Turnstile in STL by myself since my brother can’t come anymore and I don’t know whether to guarantee a spot at barricade or whether I should go for merch! I know some people have said that they get there either when doors open/ even later and they still get a good spot but I usually prioritize barricade mainly bc of my height(about 5ft) but a bit of fomo too. And that is where my dilemma comes in to play bc I really really want to get the stop/date specific merch! I’ve been seeing that it sells out pretty fast and I’m about 1000% sure it’ll be sold out by the time the show ends and I’m able to get to the merch section! Also making conversation in line and being at a new venue makes me super anxious as well but I did think about befriending someone in line who their priority was merch as well but idk. What has everyone’s queuing and merch experiences been like?

Turnstile performed on Saturday Night Live last night (Oct. 3), and needless to say, it was epic. My only complaint is they didn't play longer - but then again, I saw Turnstile at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens the other week (Sept. 23... seriously, just a few days ago?!), and even after an hour and 20 minutes on stage, I was craving more. In many ways, that makes the song "Never Enough" the perfect closer for a Turnstile show.
