    I also haven’t seen the Foos in about 20 years and am headed this week.  Really looking forward to it.

    What’s the poster scene like at their shows - plenty availabile? Or more like PJ where showing up early is a must?
    thanks
    No Issues when I saw them Friday. Had a great print and were still available at least 45 min after the doors opened.

    good looking poster for tonight's Ottawa show.

    You sure that is the actual show poster? Looks like a cheap litho one-off. 

    All the others are by artists, screenprinted, etc

    Its an official Bluesfest Poster. They stated that the group ok'd them to do a poster for the show with proceeds to charity.

    Foo Fighters don't usually do an actual show poster for festivals, so this is most likely it.

    Its likely done by a local artist, and your correct, it will be a one-off. No artist sale or anything.

    Im good with it though, at least Ill have a poster of some kind from the show. Quebec's show from last night did not get one.

    It was a good one. 3 hour show and felt fresh to me. Dave is hilarious too.
    was anyone else there? Anyone grab an extra poster by chance?

    Great to read you had a fun night. Did they play some newer songs from concrete and gold?

    Ya they were $100 Canadian. So best price you'll find.

    Ebay sellers are trying for around $250-300

    Great show last night in Pittsburgh, however, a pause in almost every song was overkill for me.

    Anyone going to the Fenway Pop-Up today for posters? I already pre-ordered my merch for pickup so I am all set with that. I don't know how early to go. I don't want to waste my time as I know it is nothing like PJ merch, but I don't want to miss out (I have crazy FOMO). FF on FB said there will be limited posters today....I am thinking the general weekend one? Last time they were here there were 2 for each night and a general weekend one

    you could preorder posters?  that's pretty nice.

    Nope, everything but posters......and no idea what they will have today, just that there will be "limited quantity" of a poster
