    I thought about picking five here with birds and calling them Birds of Pearl Jam. You could also have Skulls and Skeletons of Pearl Jam.
  • This really needs photos to justify, but I am at work so...

    1. Shuss Wrigley: The show, the value it holds, my incredible love for baseball. Many reasons. I will be forever thankful for kasedoug for grabbing this for me and waiting in that long, hot line for it. I truly owe him big time! Still an amazing experience that entire trip!
    2. Pittsburgh 2013: wasn't there, but thanks to a heads up by someone I just gave props to (kasedoug), I got it on here...for $35. I love this poster, its stunning.
    3. Klausen Dublin 2010 (wasn't there either, but Klausen is my favorite and this looks incredible)
    4. Klausen PJ20 night 2: love the incorporating of his posters up to that point. Bought the S/N version and met Brad that day. He is an awesome guy.
    5. Klausen Gorge 2005: was my favorite for a long while. Wasn't there, but I love the Pearl Jam "hidden" in the mountain. More great work.

  • In no order....

    1) Pittsburgh '13 (Don't own it and never will but it is AMAZING.)
    2) DC "Reaper" (Own this one and it is scary good...)
    3) Ben Harper - "Sasquatch" poster by EMEK. I have one (This version: http://expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/41487) and consider it one of the best concepts/designs and executions of art ever.
    4) Eddie Vedder - "Kenyon Hall" by Klausen. I like the bright blue accent colors...
    5) San Diego '98 - I have always loved Endless Summer and this is an excellent nod...

    What a fun, if not depressing thread!

    I don't own many...and only from the shows I've gone to. Not much of a "collector" and in fact, could have bought 2 SE Cracker Jacks inside Wrigley. Opted, instead for a single Emek. Maybe I should have bought and flipped them, but I figured it's best that the next one in line got them. Likely a fault to my good faith. I could have probably obtained 2 of my top 5 had I been willing to buy and flip 2 Cravker Jack's. Just not my style.

    I've only got posters for shows I've attended. There is really only 1 exception I'd make otherwise.

    Personal top 5 (from shows attended):

    EV Chicago 11 Past - Own
    EV Chicago 11 Future - Own
    Chicago 00 - never gonna happen
    Chicago/Troy 98 - pipedream 
    Milwaukee 14 - unlikely

    And from shows I haven't attended:

    Pittsburgh 13 - I'm a proud Union Steelworker, so it is art I can relate to.

    * edit to add - Toronto 11 Moose - I don't know why, but I love moose. Probably my random love of the mountains and the great outdoors. Random, I know.

  • Hartford 1998 (Ames) is my absolute favourite and glad I chased one down in the early 2000s.

    My favourites after that would be many of the Ames designs from 96 and 98.

    Top five of the ones I own: 

     The only posters I have from shows I didn't attend are from 2020, my favs are Phoenix and Oklahoma City.  Top 3 then are Hartford Huck Finn; Philly Extinction (I actually didn't like this when I first saw it at the show, but bought it anyway and now it's really grown on me).  And my all time favorite is the Mother Earth from Cleveland, it's the perfect piece of art.

    I'm new to posters.

    1. Donkey Kong 5/21/10. This was the first one I thought about buying at the show. I didn't and now regret it immensely.
    2. Randall's Island 9/96. My first show, so I'm hoping to find one at a reasonable price one day, damaged or not.
    3. St. Paul 9/2/23 is the first one I bought. I was not there, bought it on here. Stunning.
    4. Austin 9/19/23. Salamander. I was there. My kids love axolotls, so it was a no brainer.
    5. PJ vs Ames vol 2. Got my mini Donkey Kong :)
    Randall's Island 9/29/96, Continental Arena 9/8/98, MSG 9/10/98, Jones Beach 8/23/00, 8/24/00, 8/25/00, Nassau Coliseum 4/30/03, MSG 7/8/03, 7/9/03, Continental Arena 6/1/06, 6/3/06, MSG 6/24/08, 6/25/08, Spectrum 10/30/09, 10/31/09, MSG 5/20/10, 5/21/10, PJ20 9/3/11, 9/4/11, Charlottesville 10/29/13, Charlotte 10/30/13, Global Citizen 9/26/15, Raleigh 4/20/16 :( Baltimore 3/28/20 :( Austin 9/18/23, 9/19/23, Forum 5/21/24, Baltimore 9/12/24, Fenway 9/17/24

    Yep. If I saw that kong I wouldn't have got it. Didn't care about posters back then. Didn't even know about them. Saw someone with a tube at that show. Was lucky to trade for one and on my wall now. Randall's too. I don't have one. My 2nd show. Won't pay mad cash for it.
    Love my:
    kong
    Emek chief
    Welker San Palo
    Munk one Toronto moose
    Rhys Baltimore
    And others...

    Still addicted to posters

    That Klausen Atlantic City is an underrated poster.  I was able to pick one up in trade a while back and love having it on the wall.  I don’t think I remember even seeing a merch stand that night at the borgata let alone the poster.

    Maybe this isn’t the place to ask but can anyone recommend a 24x18 UV glass? I’m looking for something 98-99% uv protective for a 24x18 frame. If the frame is included that’s fine too. I think I’ve confused myself comparing glass lol
