what do you guys think ?????,,this is getting crazy....
im going to start to finish my basement ..i came up with this crazy idea of using concert posters AS WALLPAPER ...... im talking ....gluing them as if they where wallpaper ..over lapping them .turning them in sorts of ways...... not just pearl jam ..i would have to search the web for some cheap shitty condition posters and i would buy some of those rock concert poster books....etc etc ....
what do you guys think... any input would be great
p.s. i seen it in a home mag some guy did it with comics ..he used a lot of first editions ...EVEN A SUPERMAN first edition ........he said one wall had a cost of over $50,000 in comics ...
and i would be willing to purchase some CHEAP posters from anyone looking to get rid of them in the spring
********************************************EDIT**********************************
ok so after contacting a few artiest around the world .... asking them for ANYTHING laying around the shop in ANY shape or form....total fuck ups..wrong ink,ripped, pretty much the crap they would throw out....i got one bite from an artiest that has done SOME posters for pearl jam...TCV..FF...TOOL etc etc he ask me what size my wall was (8'x23') .... he then replied with this .........
You'll need about 45 posters, I can put a package together for you of mixed bag, good stuff no crap.
I dont have any crap. Total USA $ 300 + postage. Works out at about $ 6.6. per poster
Let me know
....what do you guys think should i do it ..or wait for a few other artiest to reply to my emails ...caue i would really like a bunch of different artiest ...not just one......
********************************** EDIT*********************************
email reply FROM ANOTHER WELL KNOWN...I MEAN WELL KNOWN POSTER ARTEST ........
Cool idea! I always have imperfect posters on hand that I set aside. If you're into some random posters of various levels of imperfection I can hook you up with a grab bag. How many are you looking for? I think I can hook you up with 30 or so...maybe more. How about $200 for the bunch and shipping included? . You have to send me photos once it's all put together.
THIS IS GETTING CRAZY !!!!!!!!!!!!! SOMETHING TELLS ME I WILL HAVE FEW LEFT OVER ...and i would be more then willing to give away IF THE ARTEST GIVES ME THE OK..........
EDIT march 22 EDIT ....Got 25 posters from EMEK today ... i got Tool, Queens of the stone age, Pixies,Dave mathews,Beck ,Death cab for cutie, and this ......

Seriously though, please don't use expensive and beautiful Ames, Klausen, et al. You'll regret it.
and trust me im not going use high priced posters....ill even use creased/torn/ripped up ones ...... so if anyone has ANY KIND OF poster they are willing to get rid of IN ANY CONDITION i would be more then willing to purchase it from you ..
the only question how to seal them with some kind of clear coat......
Though I've seen 10club's poster room and the whole place is plastered with poster's on the walls.

Those posters were commissioned by the promoter (Nederlander Marketing) for the 06 Santa Barbara show. When Pearl Jam's management found out, they put a halt to the sale, because they were not 'official' sanctioned posters approved by the band.
So some were destroyed, none were put out for sale, and some of the Nederlander marketing people got them. I guess there might be less than 50, and certainly less than 100 in the world.
So there was a huge demand for these with absolutely no market. The three or four that have found their way onto the market have sold for $1,500 - $3,500 per poster.
EMEK, the designer, was inundated with people wanting these. He was badgered and pestered and it became a bit of a bother to him.
So whatever event that picture is from, EMEK tore 4 posters apart as an artistic expression. It's hard to read, but they say something like, 'they're just posters people'. As in chill the fuck out.
But on top of the fact that these are so rare/scarce, it is a kick ass fucking poster. So still highly sought after.
This is a picture from the thread on Ex. Beans.

Here is mine.
I have posters for every show I've attended for Pearl Jam, and it was a real kick in the teeth when I realized what this was and that my collection wouldn't be 'complete' without it.
Here is a link to all my posters.

Not a bad idea at all, and certainly cheaper.
However there are some real cheap posters to be had. $20.00 and less even.
And I think there might be some decent sized replicas in the Ames Book too?
I would appeal to any and everyone who has beat up posters to contact the OP. And perhaps it's worth writing to Ames and letting them know that you are interested in any damaged stock that they might have?

check out an art store.. there's tons of sprays you could use to preserve the posters from fading ect...I think if you wanted a "glass" look.. you might have to epoxy them all but that might take some time and alot of $

i would be more then willing to spread the love to the board if i have extras ....and the artiest approves of it
IO have a bunch of extras I'd sell for 5 a pop, they are from his dent dings
http://www.expressobeans.com/members/co ... p?id=10954
anything by Grzeca not Black Keys or Explosions in the sky I would sell.
I counted 18 of them, I'd sell all 18 to you for 75 plus shipping. know they are dent ding posters so they have random ink splashes and some defects, but to hang on your wall they'd be great. Lot of Chicago local bands
