Aren't they only allowed one colour change? Pretty much the same he did for the EV shows isn't it?
He uses so few colors that I thought the change would be a little more dramatic. That is VERY subtle. I'm okay with it, though, as it means I have much less desire to spend even MORE money on posters!
"I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands the [shows I've done]. Some folks just have one, others they got none..."
For what its worth, Boston n1 I asked if I could have one of the empty card boxes and the guy was really nice and said "yeah sure, just dont tell anyone you got it from me" I said "oh, are you not allowed to give them out?" and he said "no it's okay, but some of these guys set them aside and bring them home to sell on Ebay so they'll just be pissed at me. But since you just spent that much money here, if you want a goddamn box you can have it." I was happy that I got the box but in the back of my mind I wondered if this was going on with other stuff which bummed me out because I got shut out on the 2 posters I wanted the most. Luckily for me though friends of mine were able to snag me the 2 posters. But it just sucks to think that it's not managed a little better or that there aren't more rules for the vendors. I get that its probably not the most high paying job in the world but I toured with bands selling merch and never even thought of doing that. If at the end of the tour there were things still left in my size I might snag a couple things for myself with permission. But that was like 15, 16yrs ago. Different times I guess..
I got to the park around 430. I had a handful of people in front of me at gate A so I decided to wait until 5. I figured YES I’ll definitely get myself a Mumford. I ended up first after security at about 450. Right in front of the device to scan my phone. Gates open, the scanner doesn’t work. Unbelievable. Went through another scanner and still only had about 15-19 people in front of me. So I still was happy thinking I’m def getting a Mumford. As I looked over at the stack I realized I had no chance. The stack was soooooo slim compared to the other 4. How? Why? Oh well. I had no chance. Everyone bought 2. Even couples went separately to buy 2 each. I only wasted 40 min of my time but it was still so odd to me just how thin that pile was. I quickly thought, do people on the inside take a bunch fir themselves? Nahhhhhh. Hmmm. Maybe. Anyone have any answers? Shouldn’t there be an equal amount of each poster?
Which day? Sunday I was also lined up at 5 at A. I didn’t have a scanner issue but was able to grab a Mumford fast, relatively big stack. Went to check on the hubs, who rushed a different stand, told him I got one. Also a decent amount of Mumfords at his stand. Since I had one he left his position and we went to our seats.
Sorry to hear you had bad luck though.
I was right in front at Gate A yesterday, too, Actually went in the side where they opened the garage doors that no one else realized exsisted. I was lined up to get right through. I guess I didn't go quick enough and there was already a line at the stand straight ahead but not a huge one. That stack was super thin but everyone bought two like you said. Ran out literally two people before me. They even sold the display. I kind of feel two per person in the venue and maybe overall stinks, but it is what it is.
I was about 20 deep at Gate B (and there were 4 lines of people so figure 80 deep) on Tuesday and had no issues getting a Mumford when I got in.
Yeah, I chose poorly in the rush on which stand to go to. I went to the one that was straight ahead inside Gate A. I knew there was another stand up the ramp to the left. I should have just gone straight there. Did seem that Gate A one may have had less than others, because I know you're not alone getting one.

I did notice that so many people went right into the "store", whereas I walked about 50 feet further to a smaller stand where there was about 10 people waiting. Got all my posters and then had 2 1/2 to kill haha.
Same here. I don't mind the wait, I would just like some communication.

In an attempt to not have to ebay the Mumford, we got up at 6-something Tuesday morning and stood in line. Was about 15th in line (right by the U-Turn) when we arrived at 7.
Honestly, it was totally worth it. Got the Mumford and also met two awesome guys from Pitt who worked for the Fire Dept.
Still would like some sort of post-show-ten-club-ticket-holder-voucher option but at least we made some new friends!
Off to the framer!

Did anyone else get a Whalen misprint? We picked up one for ourselves and one for a buddy who was coming closer to showtime, then stashed them in our hotel room so that neither of us had to worry about them at the show. Didn't really look at them until we got home yesterday (I know, we should have checked as we were rolling them, but the top one was fine).

I dig that misprint a lot let me know if you want to trade with one with color. You'd probably want to keep that, but just incase

Hey, does anyone know why the EMEK SEA poster is 18X24 for the show edition, but the AP and Variant are 15X24? That upper and lower white/gray bar are throwing me off. I definitely prefer the AP. I wish the SE was in the AP dims.
