    If they are paying tribute to other bands/albulms they like, Curious to see what DC, MSG, and Boston will all be.

    not the first time
    remember the buffalo/uniondale/albany series from 03'

    that was much more obvious

    and the tampa one does not really resemble the stuff you posted.

    Good call!!!

    The Ames Columbia is not a tribute or homage or anything like that - its plagiarism - pure and simple

    0% chance it is plagiarism

    I feel that way about Columbia. Has all the elements of a great poster. Love the subtleties. Love the homage. Love the aesthetic. It gets better with time/thought.

    My first response was that Ames didn't give much thought to the homage posters--now I feel the exact opposite.

    Apparently, having a discussion about these posters/art that goes beyond the knee jerk "love it", "hate it" reaction, makes me an asshole and a dick.
