    I hope not. We need a few Klausens. We don't need another Aussie '06

    damn, I thought some of the Aussie posters were great ...

    and there are PLENTY of good artists out there ...

    Ya know, I pride myself on having a poster from every show. But if they just change the colors for the MSG posters, is it really worth getting both? Decisions, decisions.

    I just wish u knew the colors b4hand. I like darks as opposed to brights when it comes to klausens and opposite for ames so its gonna be a coin toss
    def have to get nite 1 then make the decision to go for nite two or get it and trade/sell nite 1

    IMHO Ames Brothers is art; Klaussen is just computer imagery. I'm happy to see Ames doing everything..... :)

    um got a 32 on my ACTs thanks...

    how i read it was you prefer the dark color prints out of klausens work (implying that he has others that are NOT dark... otherwise there would be no need to specify) rather than saying "i prefer klausens work BECAUSE its darker"

    stoopid me :p

    agreed... the Ames Bros. painting background is a definite advantage for them and allows for more fluidity and fun with their work... rather than BK who clearly has more of a GD background and very rigid work

    the colors themselves arent dull but the color scheme is... color should be used to highlight specific areas and the way BK uses it there just floods the whole print and does nothing thematically

    RIGID - yeah, great description. I think that says it all about Klaussen's work.

    I'm not saying BK's posters are better than Ames' posters. Actually, most of my all-time favorite posters are Ames, but most are from 1998. All I ask from Ames is to return to that 1998 style of art. While, Ames still produces a few gems here and there, some posters they produce are just plain terrible.

    if you need a ruler, french curve, and compass to design its probably "rigid"... not saying it doesnt take skill or its not art... its just not for me

    Ames is doing:

    -west palm
    -tampa
    -bonnaroo
    -columbia
    -dc
    -msg (both nights, same poster, different colors)
    -Mansfield (both shows, same poster, different colors)

    Klausen must be doing:

    -va beach
    -camden (I'm assuming same poster both nights/different colors)
    -hartford


    Not necessarily limited to 3 for klausen (hopefully its Klausen).
    ....Chicago 06 had night 1 Ames and night 2 Klausen
    It's all happening....
