THE SITUATION: So we're going to be coming up on a year (shortly) since the "epic-ness" of the Wrigley show and I've been holding a set of Wrigley posters hostage.

THE WHY: Because a (now pretty much a former) friend owes me hundreds of dollars in hotel, travel fees, and of course the posters that I anted up money for at the Wrigley show--and expenses from other travel to the Chicago area. He has refused to pay for these travel expenses which means he "ain't gettin' no posters" -- but someone should.

THE OBVIOUS: I'm not going to flip these posters because I don't think that's the right thing to do, plus I already have my own set that I bought for myself. One set is enough.

THE PROPOSAL (and thanks for reading if you've made it this far): I'm looking to trade my Wrigley posters, in part or total, for some show posters that are missing out of my collection--and I just collect posters from shows I actually attended. Here's the list below-- make a proposal. I don't know what to expect, but appreciate anyone making a trade offer, even if we can't make it happen. Thanks.

1998 Alpine Valley/East Troy, WI (Troy/Chicago)
1998 Minneapolis, MN (Target Center)
2000 Alpine Valley/East Troy, WI (don't believe a poster was released for this show--never confirmed)
2004 "Vote for Change" Kissimmee, FL (The last "N" in the NEOCON poster - Paul Wolfowitz)
2006 St. Paul, MN (Tom Petty Night 1)
2006 St. Paul, MN (Tom Petty Night 2)
2008 West Palm Beach, FL
2008 Tampa, FL

    Shitty situation you're in. Trust me, I've been there as well, though I didn't have any collateral to hold hostage and it was a bachelor party in AC, lol. Anyway, I have a '98 Rapid City Ames S/N I'd be willing to trade for the set

    I'm 99% certain there isn't a poster for the 2000 Alpine Valley Ice Bowl show. As I understand, it was a late addition to the tour and a poster was not created. Although I'm not sure where in my memory I'm pulling that from, and have no sources...

    This poster here is about as close as you'll get for that show I think:

    Yeah, not ideal for sure--and the hostage situation obviously didn't turn out--to someone else's gain, I guess! Thanks for the offer on the '98 Rapid City. Unfortunately for me, I'm tied to just the shows I attended. Otherwise, the wife will destroy me! She was the one that actually ponied up the cash for him, so I'd better have a good reason I never collected! At least I can say I received posters to shows I went to!

    Wrigley was an epic show, but there's nothing like the Ice Bowl. Actually had a buddy bail the night before. Called another buddy up and we headed to Milwaukee with a full crew of 8. Forgot to mention to the latecomer that it was an outdoor show--all he brought was shorts and tshirts. Needless to say, there was a winter shopping spree the next day before the show--and I picked up my first Columbia jacket just to be safe...thank god I did!!
