    No idea! I was thinking that it would have something to do with the number of extinctions caused by mankind but that is a difficult number to agree on. Maybe 6 - for the 6th mass extinction event that many think that we are already in

    Judging by the setlist I assume the number was less than 11.

    I was thinking 10 was too obvious so I went with 29 since the show was the 29th of april

    My thought process was......

    6 - mankind's 6th extinction
    10 - Ten played in order
    25 - PJ's 25th year
    29 - date of the show
    69 - hey, who doesn't like this number
    91 - the year Ten was released

    So many choices!!

    I have always wondered how many posters are actually printed for an average PJ show?

    500? 700? 1000?

    my guess would be 1,000... 100-200 to the artist... 100-200 online... 50-100 for archives... 500 for the show

    does anybody have any info or educated guess on these numbers?

    I guessed six, but was considering the number of animals on the front or back of the print, my guess is it will be tied to the print vs the show, but who knows!?

    There was a picture from Philly that showed each box of posters was "200 pieces", with 9 boxes total. So 1,800 for the venue alone. 100, sometimes more for the artist........and 100 or so here in the shop.

    I would tweak that a little:

    Ames & Brad are allotted 200 to be signed as AP while other artists are allotted 100 to be signed as AP. The band archives 50 while 10C is allotted 250 for sale. 800 sold at the show.
