    Have you seen that shit piece of work called the Hartford Poster? The theme and explanation was horrible.

    I guess art truly is up to the beholder.

    When I place this poster beside the Emek poster... geez... it's not even close. The 2 Munk One posters are on a completely other level as well.

    What I would say is that it's infinitely greater than the jumpman sasquatch poster that Lloyd refers to or the Kozik Oakland double eyed cowboy: at least a reasonable effort.

    I actually love the ape Wrigley Print. EMEK just blew everyone away. I'm attending seattle show not expecting much since I'm always cursed with crappy posters that I attend. Who knows there might be 4 prints for that show lol

    I like the hockey variant.

    Did anyone else notice in Ames bros is selling tshirts with our favorite jumping Sasquatch? They flipped the image around and threw it on a shirt.


    Begs the question which came first the shirt or the poster???

    Your curse is over because my curse is over, and I'll be in Seattle. After a consecutive run of Vancouver 2011 (I'm pretty sure it's been accepted as the worst poster ever), Missoula 2012 (BORING), and Oakland (not at all good), I've rattled off Portland and Spokane (both of which are absolutely fantastic).

    So I guess that's a long way of saying you're welcome.

    Yeah, the hockey variant is way better.

    Bought 2 posters, didn't get any of the variants. Apparently there were 5 in all (including original).
    Original
    Hockey Mask Variant
    Gas Mask Variant
    Clown with no cigarette and tears
    Not sure what the last one was.
    25 of each randomly inserted in the original piles.

    I gambled and got 2 originals... so if anyone's looking for one...

    Prefer the original over the hockey one. I like this poster. It's cool, it's different. The tattoo's are ace.

    The best posters on this tour have been Jermaine Rogers and Emek. Nothing else comes close.
    2000: Manchester
    2006: Dublin; Leeds; Arnhem
    2007: London
    2009: Manchester

    Guess im in the minority, only posters i've liked this tour are charlotte (love munk 1's stuff) and phoneix, that one was sweet. Not a fan of pitts, and this one is ugly. Although the hockey variant is cool, only cuz hockey is involved.
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?
