I think Brad's is a step above, especially in terms of the nostalgia feel that I think is important to convey through this tour. However, I would have no problem hanging this print.
I'd love one if someone grabs an extra. Could also trade my TOTD msg for one.
I have an extra if you'd like to trade... it looks great in person.

When I was in high school I was a huge Pearl Jam & Soundgarden fan. At that time, the Seattle music scene was in its heyday with bands like Mudhoney, Alice in Chains, Tad, & Nirvana pumping out albums. Sub Pop Records was king and amazing loud music from this quiet part of the country was getting national exposure. As a fan, one of the best things about the scene was the family-like feel to it in which a lot of the musicians had solo or side projects incorporating members from other bands. Lots of these were for fun and not meant to go any further than 1 album which most didn’t.
Along with epic “super-groups” Mad Season & Mother Love Bone, Temple of the Dog was one of the more notable to form and definitely grabbed my attention as it was made up of members of Soundgarden & Pearl Jam. The band formed as a tribute to a fallen Seattle-musician, Andrew Wood (Malfunkshun, Mother Love Bone) and unfortunately only released 1 album which is currently celebrating it’s 25th Anniversary re-release this year along with a short tour. I was extremely psyched and honored to be able to do a print for this occasion and even more ecstatic to get to finally get to see them perform Live!!!
Since this tour is a bit of nostalgic journey back to the old “grunge” days of early 90’s Seattle I wanted the poster that represented that feel as well. The fashion of ragged flannels, long hair, painted nails, thrift-store everything is very recognizable as well as the Riot Grrl/zine, cut’ n paste xerox esthetic of those days. The dog may seem like too obvious a choice but it actually appears a lot in lyrics and I thought should be present.
One interesting thing is, since the band only had 1 album and probably didn’t tour too heavily, there are barely any Temple of the Dog posters out there to reference which adds a lot of pressure when creating one.
The final print is a 5-color (18′ x 24) printed by Monolith Press and I will have a small run of 40 Artist Edition Prints (signed/Numbered) available on Tuesday, November 15th @ 11AM (PST).

Andrew is playing piano on this poster. That seems pretty nostalgic to me! I was wondering why his image wasn't somehow placed on some of the merch. The poster is brighter than I normally like, but I had to buy it with Andy on it.
1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th 1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California Nothing since then. I suck. 2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights 2022- Oakland Night 2
I have an extra Philly poster, an extra Philly mini-poster and an extra MSG poster. I'd like to trade for the SF mini-poster and the L.A. poster when it comes as I'm shooting for the complete set this tour. Thanks!
That is one of the beat Ames posters in a long time
I don't think I'd go that far.

The final print is awesome but I think the pitbull sketch is pretty sick & would've been a better final print had that been colored vibrantly. I have two beautiful pitbulls so I might be biased. The sketches and final print are cool regardless. Not too sure abt ames one
That is one of the beat Ames posters in a long time
Lexington
Lexington and Columbia. I think the jackalope was so bad people are forgetting that Ames had a great year until Fenway lol.
Columbia was done by Taylor and Lexington was an uninspired rehash of an old poster. Ames hasn't done a truly great poster since 2007.
I meant Greenville. I love both of these posters so your opinion is they haven't done anything great since 2007. Their Lexington is a very high demand poster which would suggest otherwise

... the lack of border definitely stands out as out of the norm ames work
Saturdays poster may unite with this one
The rumor is it will be a Triptych poster set.
That will be interesting... wouldn't surprise me to see Ames Bros do LA & Seattle posters too! To me, this poster is about average for an Ames poster... not GREAT, but DEFINITELY not one of their worst!!

You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
