Has anyone been able to figure out who the artist for the night 1 LA show at the Gibson is?????? I spent hours on end searching the internet, only clue is the acorn logo with the A in it. Seems people have neen ruling out Ames and Klausen, but there arent any other signs as to who it can be.


Can someone please help me out on this?????

    So, it's the LA 1 print, Calgary and London ... and no one has received an answer on who it is.

    I've emailed the 10c sevral times ... called Santos out on a thread, and ... nothing.

    I have no freakin' clue why it's such a secret ... wondering if maybe it's Jeff ("a" for ament) trying his hand at poster art and they don't want to say anything to get honest feedback ... but that's a huge, and more than likely incorrect guess.

    Hopefully they give us some clues after the Australian tour. It would be sweet to know who did them. And if the artist has a site where we can purchase the posters. Hopefully they will get a signed & numbered treatment. :)

    I would bet it's not Jeff. He already has his own logo, as seen on the Chicago print. Don't see the point of changing logos midway. Even if he is looking for honest feedback; at this point what would be the point? He's got nothing to prove. Whether it's music or drawing, I think he does art for the sake of art, not for what other people think. It's something I really admire about Jeff (and yes I LOVE TONE)

    A BREAK IN THE CASE!!!

    So, random post over in expressobeans, kind of hidden in one of the threads, stated to go to ... http://www.whoisacorn.com ... no other info in the post.

    It takes you to a myspace page, some some guy Arthur in Chula Vista, has a few design pieces on the page, but in his pics, I saw this ... which is the fisting monster from the London poster.

    I guess my mountains of internet knowledge can be put to use here:

    <lets find out who registered the acorn domain name>
    whois whoisacorn.com
    ...
    xxxxx, Chris xxxxxxxxx
    TSURT llc
    xxxxxxxxx
    San Clemente, California 92673

    OK, that's great, so WTF is "TSURT"... lets google that and find some links
    http://www.linkedin.com/in/mrtsurt
    http://www.facebook.com/pages/TSURT/34855391575

    Looks like the guy was a blink 182 merchandising guy for a while, runs a bunch of music related companies, and their facebook page shows shirts designed for pearl jam by various artists.

    That's all I got for now.

    edit: looks like another one of the TSURT related artists did the LA2 poster - http://www.juxtapoz.com/12297-pearl-jam

    i dont know if its cool to post someones personal info like that...... :?:

    BUT, i did notice at the LA show last night, all of the cardboard boxes that the merch gets shipped/packed in, is all printed with "TSURT" on it - tons of empty boxes are in view - they all say it, i just assumed it was some kind of 10c wordplay for "TSHIRT". so maybe PJ made a deal with merch with these guys?

    BTW - Munk One was doing some artwork outside the venue too, some graffiti art. I wonder what PJ is gonna do with those art pieces they've been having them do outside the Gibson? :D:D

    That address is plastered all over their public domain name records, as well as every listing for the company. So I figure it's not really a personal address, but a business one. But point taken... I'll xxx it out like I did for email.

    We woulodn't have to post all this stuff if 10c just went ahead and told us about the artist ... it's not that difficult, why are they holding out? Seems so silly.

    By cross referencing the myspace profile's friends (one of them happening to be Maxx242) I've tracked down... drum roll... Arnold Cornelio! (Or A.Corn!)

    http://www.facebook.com/people/Arnold-Cornelio/1653302085

    Was recently in the show: http://www.seashepherdartshow.com/
