    Around 25-30. Have posters from all 21 PJ shows and 2 EV shows I've been to plus a few randoms. Only 4 framed so far but going to get started back up on that project soon.

    I think only 4, plus a couple of EV posters and 1 RNDM one. I am not really a poster person because it is too expensive to frame them, and I see no point in owning them if they aren't framed and up on the wall. Plus there is only so much wall space. And I haven't framed the ones I do own yet, lol. I only have 1 poster where I also went to the show (Wrigley 2013 Emek). I have just bought the few I did because I really liked them and saw an opportunity to buy them for face value or less (besides the Cincy '03,which is by far my favorite. I traded a sealed Sevens boxset for that, and it will be the first one I frame).

    2013 Wrigley Emek and Munk One
    '14 Memphis
    '16 Lexington
    '16 Wrigley Faile, Cliver, Klausen
    I also have a Mike Watt/Foo Fighters/Hovercraft poster from Metro (Chicago) in '95.
    I've been to all these. The only two shows I've been to that I don't have a poster for is Milwaukee '95 (Sponsored by No One) and the Troy/Chicago '98.
    The only poster I have for a show I didn't go to was this year's SC show. My wife's not really a fan but she has a thing for bats so she was like "It's PJ (you) and a bat (me).....You HAVE to get that one!"

    I have been to 25 PJ shows and 6 EV shows and have approximately 37 from those if you include the PJ 20 posters I got (Klausen, Ames, Hampton, Billboard, Giant PJ20 movie poster, Ames Mookie and Ames Beercan). I have been fortunate in being able to obtain all my shows at pretty much cost.... and they include Pittsburgh 13, Kong, Seattle EV Pike Place, PJ20s. Also the Yield Firehouse Promo.... unsure where that would be classified.

    I have about 6 from other shows I have been to: Tres Mts, The Wall, Soundgarden, The Hip, etc...

    So that is about 40 for shows that I have been to.

    I estimate I have about 40-50 for shows that I have not been to. There are a lot of them that I just like and have had the opportunity to purchase: Toronto 2 '16, Cracker Jack, Sperry Poster Convention with the Dog, Thomas Fenway, Made In America money, Lexington, St Louis '10, and so on... There are randoms too from things like contests and mystery poster sales. Burwell threw in a Bonnaroo print too when I ordered the Cleveland '10 from him.

    I would like to downsize a bit on the non-show prints that I dont really care for... mainly for storage space. My portfolio book is full including between the sleeve pages.

    Of my 85-100 prints, I have about 14 in frames. Trying to get my basement finished, and when I do, I plan on really framing a bunch of them, then assessing my collection.

    25+ only collect shows I've been too.
    But I am guilty of buying and selling posters(flipping and tradeing) In order to acquire posters that I'm missing and still in search of. Expensive hobby.

    Has anyone collected say 20+ from all the shows they've been to and then finally decided it made no sense to hang onto them if you weren't going to frame them? I'm never going to frame all my concert posters but can't get myself to part with them either just because I was there. Need some inspiration from those who have done it.

    I currently have 21 PJ and 2 EV posters, of those 14 are framed.

    Out of the framed posters, only 5 are from shows I didn't attend, and 1 of those is the Munk One Pearl Jam tree print from a few years ago.

    I did go through a while back and sell some of the ones that I will never frame, even if I went to the show. It felt great, and I don't regret it. I'm currently debating whether to get rid of another 3 or so prints.

    I own a bunch of posters. In terms of those from shows that I have been to, I sold the Baltimore poster because it was put to me that it would "never go on the wall at home"! Happy wife = happy life and all that :-)

    I'm the same way right now. Just recently bought a house so I have a basement with plenty of wall space.....once the walls are covered, then I can reassess the situation. But the posters that I probably wouldn't put up on the walls aren't worth much so I figure I should just keep them...I really like having the posters from every show I've been to for some reason.

    Thanks for the replies. You make a good point that the posters you won't put up probably aren't worth that much it probably doesn't take much more space to store 20 versus 50. I think I may go through and definitely get down to 1 poster for the multi-poster shows like Wrigley 2013, Wrigley/Fenway 2016, and PJ20.

    I'm in a similar boat. I have a few that have way more sentimental value than monetary so I can't see myself getting rid of them...... Montreal '11 is my #1 example. It was an amazing show & road trip w/ my then girlfriend & now wife, but that poster.... Yikes:

    I know I'll never frame it, but I still love seeing it when I go through my collection. It brings back memories of an awesome show, despite the awful colors & image.

    Just started collecting posters. Have 8, all of shows I've been to (6). Unable to go to shows til recently and still missing Lollapalooza '07. Also been resisting the very slippery slope that is buying posters of shows I didn't attend.
