What's up with that. They jack them up big time on their site.

I say that's lame.

    probably why they will never be sold out! even $70 for new prints is kinda steep, $35 maybe $50 is reasonable, but c'mon!

    just saw that ACL PJ poster for the first time - whats with the U-Haul?

    Ames Bros are cool but I gotta say I've been loving Brad Klausen's work SO MUCH MORE. He makes amazing posters. His ideas are so well thought out and interesting. He's such a good artist. I hope San Diego is a Klausn Poster.

    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    glad i saw this thread. i checked out their t-shirts and saw they are back in stock on the XXL San Diego 06 shirt. not my favorite poster they've done, but i've always wanted an official pj shirt from a show that i attended and this is the first time i've been able to get one.

    also, i'd say overall i like klausen's art better too, but then again, some of the 98 posters from ames were just insanely good: knoxville, raleigh, phoenix come to mind... and i still love the phoenix 03 poster too. glad i got it for $20 at the show instead of the $100 they are charging on the site now. although i can understand why they're charging more. the posters are limited edition after all and some of the ones on the site date back over 10 years now...

    Why didn't they make the San Diego poster that color! The t-shirt looks awesome, but the original poster is like baby puke yellow.

    yeah, the poster was pretty bland in terms of color. i still grabbed one just because, but i am with you. i like the design on the t-shirt better.
