Framed Poster with Setlist Question

Hi @chitownp76

Just a suggestion. If you wanted to wait until the bootleg is released you could incorporate that as part of the framing. I have done this with other posters for PJ shows I’ve attended. You will have the set list on the back of the CD case. It gives a nice look, makes it a bit more personal and a different spin than just framing the poster itself.

Stage-used setlist do pop up in Lost Dogs for around $100 from time to time but not until well after the tour is finished, so the only advice I could give would be to hold off on framing until they come available (even though there's no guarantee you'd be able to grab one with it being MSG).

Hello All,
I'm taking in my MSG 1 "Owl" poster in to get framed today. This is my first framed poster so I am a newbie at this. My question is, I would like to incorporate the setlist from that night along with the sticker and ticket stub. I don't have the original set in Eds handwriting or anything but was curious if anyone had ideas or advice from what they have done in the past. Hope everyone is enjoying this tour as much as I have so far. Thanks in advance

Check out derbydave's posts in that framed poster thread. He is the king of framing souveniers with the show poster. Some really nice examples by him in there.

Also...there are folks here who do get access to set lists and can scan them for you. Then you print them and it looks like the real deal....

Is your poster in a tube or flat? I should have taken mine out sooner than 2 weeks when I got it framed, it DOES make a difference. If you go to a framing place and ask them for two large pieces of flat cardboard you can secure it in that to help the flattening process. I first went to a local Michaels but the price was crazy. With a 65% off coupon it was gonna be $396. That's the poster, 2 tickets and sticker framed. When she originally said, " well before the discount the total is $1,052" I about shit. Same thing done at Hobby Lobby out the door was $214. I will take a picture of mine later today and post back here.

That is a ridiculous price right there^ Trying to get anything fancy done? Never paid more than $250 to get a frame job done. And I always use a local framer because I trust them much more than a chain store.

No nothing fancy at all. Mine was the Tampa show so I wanted to do a weathered look due to the pirate. The lady called me from Michael's and asked why I didn't return. I told her price alone was the main reason. I really liked how the other store framed it.

How do people acquire those set lists? Just friends of the crew or something? I would love to buy the Greenville one. Not sure how to verify its authenticity though.

Thank you!

The one thing that I will do with my next 2 posters ( Wrigley 1&2) is take a picture of the back of the poster as maybe a 5x8, picture from the concert, tickets and sticker in the frame. I love how this one came out. Can't wait to hang it.
