Show Posters

Does this help sort of?

wow, I didnt realize the white version was that much bigger than the black version. I figured they were the same size just flipped from vertical to horizontal...and differing colors of course.

nice framing btw

[justinaqui]

that nirvana one would look cool with a matt in light blue to bring out the blue in the text. just my opinion.

I did after I looked at it longer. If you look at the shades next to the poster it starts to look smaller...that and I checked the dimensions online and it is the same size.

here are some of my posters. I was at these shows as well. couldnt find all of them online, the others I'll have to take photos of.





















this above is glowing in the dark

[Sonicifyouwantit]

and of course this one...



couldnt find my hot chip @ fonda, old crow medicine show @ the fillmore, beck/cat power @ fonda, bonnaroo 2007 (honey comb), air @ hollywood bowl, hot chip (the warning limited poster), the little ones/small sins zune tour poster (bees), death cab @ tipitinas (new orleans, the o.g. house of blues) phantom planet @ fingerprints and sparklehorse @ fingerprints.

same thing goes for you sex(see above post)... AF put a few of those back on their website - for $15!!!!!!!!!!!

go now.

shit, thanks man! i just bought one!

and the AF L.A. one is damaged and 10 bucks!! crazy.. tempted..

damnit, i got so excited when i saw it that I didnt read the fine print. I might have thought twice knowing its "slightly damaged", but oh well. For 20 bucks (including shipping) hopefully it will be very minor and still worth it.

I'm looking for the Pearl Jam poster from the Forum and the Daft Punk poster from the LA Sports Arena. I went to both of those shows but they were all sold out.

i went to one of those PJ shows at the forum, but can't remember if I was able to get one before it sold out...

[suprefan]

ummm, where did you get the MBV one, cause I never saw the thing...

[Boourns]

I never see these things at any of the shows, yet they seem to exist. Hell, at Metric in 06 I even looked at the merch before staking out my spot up front.

I so want that MBV poster.

[Sonicifyouwantit]

I check online after a show a lot of times if I am unable to find a print at the show. They go fast as was the case with the MBV above. If you can find out who the artist is and go to their website you can contact them personally. They usually seem happy to provide a print...unless they are individually hand made as was the case with the okkervil river @ henry fonda. those were very limited but were at the merch booth...so I grabed one

edit: yeah I am seriously considering custom framing my mbv as opposed to the usual dry mount to foam backing with protective coating applied to the surface...I love doing that because the poster pops out from the wall more but with such a rare event like mbv it kinda deserves a framing.

[suprefan]

Well where did you even get the poster to begin with? I saw not one person who had one in hand at the mbv shows. so yeah.......

[Boourns]

Maybe they were all sold the first night.

[menikmati]

that nirvana one would look cool with a matt in light blue to bring out the blue in the text. just my opinion.

Hmm haven't thought of that....I just need to take it to a frame shop one of these days....I don't want anything fancy, was thinking just black matte, and black frame...

[shakermaker113]

they are the same size. I have both.

I like your collection! damn that ting tings one is cool.

[Sonicifyouwantit]

Here's a great link...

this is another poster of mine...oddly enough its the same artist that did the daft punk sports arena posters.

[prettydirtything]

my favorite one

I like this thread...

I got hooked on the Stanley Donwood stuff at one point and have prints from the Karma Police, and No Surprises singles. Limited to < 300 each, numbered and signed.

Plus the Eraser cover on mulberry paper (#7/13), the Hail to the Thief cover on a red background (#3/25), and a bunch of his other stuff that doesn't relate to a radiohead cover.

As a side note:

How badly does it damage a print/poster to be rolled up in a tube for 2-3 years???? I am getting really worried because I don't have money to get like 20 posters framed. They are all on acid free archival stock....

[woogie846]

I'll be at Aaron Brothers this weekend for frames.

How thick is the paper? And yeah it can cause a lot of creasing. So you better unroll those things and let em breathe. I try to keep mien if they are rolled up, as loose as possible, and a lot of them flat if I can..

Where did you get that new one for Travis at the Troubadour? I saw that online and thought it would be sold at the Troubadour but it wasn't

edit: found it on ebay, 15 bucks directly from the artist

Wasn't that a great show?

[whynotsmile99]

wait until the the "buy one get one for a penny sale". happens twice a year. I'm sure theres one coming for the holidays

yeah the artist's store is on ebay. you can't buy those posters at the show. they are intended for industry types. I've been able to swindle a couple from troub management but the others I purchased directly from the artist online.

[whynotsmile99]

i'm on the fence about the Travis one. it's really nice, but i didn't realize how small it is. I'll probably end up getting it anyway. I just placed my order for that white Daft Punk. The white poster against black frame is quite striking. 10% off code at pushposters.com. all came out to $30, not bad at all. Between movie posters, artwork from Thailand and concert posters I have more than enough to fully decorate a house.

Still if anyone comes across a site that has posters for...

Any Flogging Molly LA show
Decemberists @ Troubadour
Travis @ Wiltern
Queens of the stone age @ Ventura/Greek
Blackalicious @ Troubadour

let me know! thanks

this is the exact dilemma i have, except some of mine are way older than 2 years. and money isnt the only problem, but having the space for 20 framed posters on my walls. man, i didnt think being rolled up would damage them at all. i should really do something about all those things, just dont know what.

[Sonicifyouwantit]

some of his pieces are smaller which work out nice in the right place. His mudcrutch poster is pretty large though. I usually do the drymounting on black foam backing with wood mounting blocks. It pops from wall nicely especially with no frame distracting from the image. Some works deserve a nice framing though. Yeah that was a good deal from pushposters, I've seen it before.

this is a good link for purchasing posters. I posted it above as well.

[CalmerThanYou]

did you have trouble framing this? when I tried to frame it I had issues because the text gets so close to the edge of the poster, the frame would cover part of it.

it came pre-framed actually, it was a gift from a friend i went to that show with.

menik - my DP posted is up in my room too....its my favorite.

[CalmerThanYou]

Oh ok cool, thanks, maybe I'll wait until Christmas to frame.

[ivankay]

These are some other pictures i had of poster booths at Vegoose last year:









i have a few Flatstock pictures from Bumbershoot 2005. If you have never been to the fine festival up yonder, poster artists show off their wares convention style. Very cool. i'll try to get those up sometime soon.

[woogie846]

Coachella should have a poster booth like that for '09.
