2016 tour poster idea

As much as I like collecting some of these great posters, why doesn't the band just do what they did in 1995 and print one poster for the entire tour? Other bands have been doing this lately (the WHO come to mind). Print a fair amount of them and be done with it. I'm just imagining all the arena shows and then if they do 4 posters per show for the 2 Wrigley and 1 Fenway show, it's going to be nuts.

Edit, having a show specific for the regular shows will be fine. I'm just thinking about the stadium shows.

    I have a '98 poster from multiple dates (only because getting Alpine '98 is $$$). Otherwise I like having a poster per show because I frame each show I've been to.

    I agree and the regular shows will be ok. The stadium shows on the other hand will be crazy. If they do 4 per show like the last wrigley and then no where near enough to go around its a huge pain.

    Ya, no. If they want to add a tour poster like they had for the '06 tour I'm fine with that. But show specific posters are the way to go.

    Because they'll make less money doing that.
