The poster is not my jam, but here is information about the artist (the poster is very much his aesthetic): https://www.winstonsmith.com/ FYI, Winston Smith, the artist, designed the famous Dead Kennedys logo.
I thought that are looked familiar! His art isn't for everyone. Cool that he tried. Makes me think I am buying an old DK or Jello album.
If HR Giger were alive and he tried to make a PJ poster I'd probably hate it too. He's one of my fav all-time artists but some aren't meant to do gig posters, ya dig?

Oooh,I would totally be behind a PJ Tour Poster by HR Giger.
Apparently there wasn't a limit on the banners at the merch truck and they sold out within minutes.

Well, I'm pretty sure Romero did the cancelled Vegas poster, so that is probably 1 of the 2. Some version of a black light looking neon poster I would guess. Hope its good. I didn't really love the cancelled one.

saw one guy buy 10 (ten)...to be clear----ten. Only to have them sell out with the guy right in front of me (who had every right to his one)...did I say he bought 10---because he bought 10.

That is really fucked up. They better have a bunch inside. Why in the world would they have even let him buy 10? They knew exactly what he is going to do with them.

Doubt the band cares whether 10 get sold to 10 different people or a single person. Check still clears the same. In all likelihood though, it really often comes down to the Merch Truck people selling the gear. Often times they really just don't care...
Outlawed, just left the merch trailer and there were a lot of posters and there will be plenty inside.
And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all

Me personally I need at minimum a 48 hour window of information gathering on a poster. Who's the artist, what's their usual aesthetic, what's the backstory on the image, are their regional Easter eggs I'm missing, how does it look in person etc etc. Unless I just think it's awesome right away. But "sees thumbnail image/immediately declares it to suck" is a recipe for regret.
I think one can take one look at the image and know instantly if it's something that might make the wall or never in a million years. The other info might add context but won't make something hideous beautiful imo
2009 Philly posters were a perfect example of this for me. When I saw the first one I was like what the fuck is going on. Then I caught it was Tom Tomorrow and it totally clicked. I read This Modern Life in the Valley Advocate and didn't immediately recognize the character design. Once I did I thought it was awesome to see on a Pearl Jam poster.
Actually 2009 Chicago and the backstory for that one is another example to a lesser extent.
To each their own but I generally tread lightly because I've definitely felt silly in the past.
Admittedly, this one is growing on me after seeing better photos
