Well said. After deciding to stop collecting every poster I can and focusing only on the shows I went to, I cringe when I think about framing costs when I finally get my rock room.
None on that graphic. 3 total + 1 EV. All four are framed and on the wall. If I ever get my hands on a 2000 Pittsburgh, that’ll be #5. Other than that, I’m done with posters.
I think it had something to do with him going to Europe and saying he, “was embarrassed to be an American.” Or something to that effect...either way he’s no longer of concern, as far as I am concerned....
I never got into the poster thing. I know someone who did and bought hundreds (no idea how many) of them thinking he would put his daughter through college by eventually selling them, I guess. Unfortunately, he passed away suddenly on a trip to see PJ in Hawaii. Left his wife and daughter with them all over the house. I have no idea what ever happened to them. I miss him. I still somewhat keep in touch with his wife but never asked what she did with all those posters. His daughter did go to college and is a UCONN grad. So this story ends well.

Down to 45 posters. Sold about 170 or so over the years. When I started looking at collecting more about will this poster gain in value or not rather than collecting because I loved collecting, I decided it was time to move on.
Stuff all for me. EV Dublin 2017 PJ Amsterdam 2 2014 PJ Boston 2018 Soundgarden Berlin 2012
I gave my Stockholm 2012 to a friend who went with me. Can't justify any more save maybe a Tool one from Auckland next month. Though my missus is quite ok with an Alex Grey print in the yoga room she wants, so that could count.
