    I have to say he gets some mileage out of that image

    This poster feels like such a missed opportunity.  Nashville has a fantastic musical history.  So many great inspirations to draw from for a poster.

    I personally love it.  Best poster of the tour so far (for me).

    The fact that it is a rehashed image ruins it for me.  Surprised the band let that one slip through.

    agreed, feels more like his signature than a PJ poster

    Always a blessing to the wallet and your time when the poster and shirt look like toddler art and you get to skip the lines. 

    Potential for bottom 5 shirt/poster of all time.

    Skateboard deck is cool though just no use for it.
    Im not sure there has ever been a poster that bad. Even the 4 eyed cowboy is preferable. 
    I actually like the poster, lol.

    Must have taken a full 10 minutes from idea to final image. Almost feels disrespectful… to everyone

    I mean, that just seems kinda lazy, no? You get asked by a big name bad to do a poster for them. A band with a long history and fans who are known to go crazy over posters.  And all you can come up with is just redoing an image you've done a bunch before, slapping it on a 18'X24' and writing the band name, venue name, city, and date? 

    Maybe that's his thing and he wanted a chance to have that image on a PJ poster. But put a tiny bit of effort into it. Yikes.

    I like it but as 75% of the print a little too minimalist for me. Lots of good stuff if you dig into more of his work though.

    This has gotta be the worst run of your posters potentially ever. But when the merch guys are making tokens for 25 cents and selling them out (almost immediately) at $5 a pop, I doubt the band cares.

    Quick cash grab, absolutely pathetic, how many young artist are out there waiting for a chance and this dude gets a free pass?

    All I really need from tonight is a sticker. And I can't really justify dealing with all the merch madness just for a $2 sticker. If anyone can grab me one, I'll buy you a beer. That's a 900% return on your investment. ;)

    I think the issue is Tsurt has used all local artists this time, apart from Ames and Kevin Tong (who is an established Alternative Movie Poster artist) who unsurprisingly had the two best posters. Hardly any of these have done concert posters before. For me the solution is simple, just go back to using mainly established poster artists. You can see it works from last year. Australia and NZ had the best posters and they had a higher number of established poster artists (Ken Taylor, Ben Brown, Rhys Cooper, Bella Grace, Travis Price etc). It also impacted the Euro tour posters last year as well. Apart from London and Dublin, mainly local artists were used.

    Disappointed in the poster and the lack of effort. These things are precious and while art is subjective, hitting Copy/Paste and then asking for $45 is insulting.  I wondered if the Nashville posters might lean too far into a cowboy theme.  Boy was I wrong.  I have posters from every show I’ve attended until tonight.  

    It did just free up my day though. And I saved about $100 by the time it’s framed.

    Hopefully Nashville night 2 merch will be a banger.  Can't image it being worse that this. Although nothing surprises me lately.
