    One poster per person today
    Big if true. 1 per person is how it should be so that it keeps posters, at least initially, in the hands of those who went to the show. Maybe a system of 1 per person before/during show and then open it up to 2 per person once it's over? Might be a happy medium. I know a lot of people pick up a spare for a friend or someone arriving late but the reality is that most people buying 2 are looking to use it as trade bait.
    Perhaps they reduced it to one poster due to the possibility of the recent decision to postpone/cancel tonight show

    There was not a 1 poster limit. Everyone was buying 2.

    Why not?

    The first thing I asked my brother when NY cancelled here in Sweden in... 2012... was to grab me a tshirt.

    tshirt to a show I didn't go to - worthless. 

    tshirt to a show that I didnt go to but never happend - pretty cool.

    Any of these posters - probably framed, matted and hung - can look incredible. That’s art 101. Frankly, most people (PJ fans in particular) don’t display their stuff correctly, because it’s expensive or they don’t have an eye for matting etc or because they hang it next to five other things that don’t compliment it or because its being displayed in a Michael’s poster binder in a closet etc.  I’ve gone through those threads where people post pictures of their PJ prints framed and hung and all I can say is...yuck.  Lots of gutless black frame jobs hung over shitty home office desk furniture.  Yeah, of course it looks bad.

    These prints aren’t my personal favorites but I could see someone doing something awesome with them.

    Friendly rant over!
    So glad we have such a grand art connoisseur among us. Good grief. All I can say about this post is yuck. 

    A lot of bad prints, the one that was for tonight is up there in the worst ever category.

  • Bummer about the show.

    I think the poster was a foreshadowing event- the train began coming off the rails with that nasty looking thing.

    I'm actually relived.  I didn't feel last nights performance was great and tonight would have  been worse.  Combined with a shit poster I'll happily wait until July for a shot at better versions of both.

    Obviously massively sucks for all those who travelled.

    I doubt there will be a new poster. I'd expect the original to stand. Not a classic and this is a bit of a cliché, but it does look better in person.

    They've sold them,  can't imagine they'll just rehash the dates and rerelease
