    Jeff soto is an amazing artist. I have an AP of this and it is a stunning poster. I have some of his other works as well and he never disappoints.

    I like this print...I just wish there was a different head. Everything else is great. Is there a meaning behind the face?

    That's what is keeping me from buying it. The diamond just looks out of place.

    I Don't think it is supposed to be a sasquatch. it looks like some monster representing "mother earth" or nature. he is going along ripping up all the power lines and poles.

    I wonder what it says on the back of the poster...

    In my opinion ottawa Soto is the best one on the tour

    I totally agree. Actually, I think it's the best PJ poster since the 2013 tour. While there is no accounting for taste, I am also surprised it's still in the shop (but happy about it, since I just bought one. I am not awake enough at 7:30am to remember to check the new psst posts! I wouldn't normally make it in time to buy one, since all the others seem to go so much faster than this awesome print!).

    Yeah, I never thought it was a Sasquatch either. Reminds me more of a kind of Ent-type creature (even though it's not a tree, though his feet are stump/root-like), so I definitely agree with your interpretation.

    It's for a great cause, but don't need two AP's from Bonnoroo.

    Will this one sit around? Better than the others still in the store, but not the most popular.

    IMO, yes it will.

    I rarely buy posters for shows I haven't been to, but I made an exception for this one.

    The diamond face threw me off at first, but I kind of like how the cat has a diamond too. The more attention I paid to the detail, the more I fell in love with this poster.

    I'm pretty psyched to add it to my collection.

    Surprised Ottawa hasn't sold out yet. I think it's one of the best posters of the tour.
