    I would love to see a poutine themed poster. Beautiful golden French fries smothered in gravy and topped with cheese curds…. Yummy!

    I'm sure this has been posted a million times.. if there is a thread, please point me into the right direction..

    Does everyone check a bag to transport posters?
    I really don't want to check a bag and have to lug everything around the city. My flight gets way in before check in time, sadly.
    any tips?

    Lot of hotels offer luggage storage until check in.  That's what I'm doing.

    Does anyone want to trade their Hamilton poster for my extra Toronto poster?  Ideally in the GTA?

    Any idea how its related to Toronto?
    No idea
    Thinking the concept was inspired by Ripley’s Aquarium which is just up the block…
    Sure, I’ll have to remind myself every time I look at it lol
    If indeed it has to do with Ripley's Aquarium, this opened in 2013 and has nothing to do with Toronto other than it being a tourist attraction/trap. I like the poster and it looks pretty cool, I did however think that artists do a bit of research on the city before putting something together. Nice poster, not related to Toronto in the slightest way.... 
    I don't get the continued issues people have with artists making posters that are simply great and creative--while having nothing blatantly obvious in connection with the city. 

    Noblesville IN '98: What in the hell does a severed monster head have to do with Noblesville?

    But it's easy to cherry pick any instant classic poster and say the art transcends the need to be tied to the city. Right?
    So, let's simply look a bit at the history of PJ Toronto show posters prior to 2022:
    Barrie/Toronto 98--It's a GD tractor. Toronto is a major tourist city. (It's one of Ames' best posters ever.)
    Toronto 00--No show poster, just the generic Binaural posters.
    Toronto 03--What the hell do embracing robots have to do with Toronto?
    Toronto 05--Lumberjack dude (Paul Bunyon?) (I mean, Toronto's a city...not a forest, right? Ames did hit it out of the park with this because it really works well with the Barrie 98 and Montreal 05 posters.)
    Toronto 06 N1--Ames acid trip. I mean, it's art. It's NOT at all Toronto themed.
    Toronto 06 N2--The Severed Hand poster. This, to me, is Klausen's best print ever. Zero to do with Toronto.
    Toronto 09--nothing to do with the city...rather much to do I believe with a dream Klausen continually had.
    Toronto 11--Munk Moose playing violin. I think many people consider this a classic print. It has a Moose, which is very Canadian. I've never known them to be in Toronto--but I'm not an expert on Moose.
    Toronto 11--Dabs' weird Pac Man Beaver. It has a Beaver and Toronto skyline. (Yay for the city tie in--wait, I have to hang that on my wall?!)
    Toronto 16 N1--Veca "Bluto" print. This one...it's an acquired taste--and also very absent of any Toronto ties.
    Toronto 16 N2--Mark5 Bluejay on a bike. It's a fun print and I'm reminded the MLB team is of course the Blue Jays. But, interestingly, Toronto's official bird is the Gray Jay (props to M5 for the tourist tie in mentioning exploring on the print's back)
    Toronto 20 (Cancelled)--Beavers destroying what is the presumptuous city of Toronto. (Epic. Ties in enough Canadian things *beavers/urban identifiers for Toronto effect, with things relevant to PJ *Yield sign, environmental concerns).

    Nothing to do with Toronto (I don't have a problem with this).

    Mark5 did a Cardinal poster for St Louis, so betting the Toronto Blue Jay was also the nod to MLB teams

    You DO have to pay $25 more for the exact same poster, however. I use the art tubes you find at Michaels. They telescope for large items and have a good strap to sling over your back. Hardly knew I had the thing on me the whole show in Hamilton. Plus, I paid a buck for it at the thrift shop.

    Ooops--I forget about the baseball team! Not a baseball fan in the slightest.

    Oh don’t get me wrong - I’m not walking out of MSG with a poster on Sunday. When I get one it’ll either be through (1) an AP drop, (2) a Psst, (3) Lost Dogs or (4) EBay. On Sunday I will be spending time with my family, pregaming/watching football with my friends, and watching a Pearl Jam show instead of spending hours standing on a line. I have a rule against messing with the merch lines at PJ shows (other than festivals). 

    But the artist drops have gotten obnoxiously difficult in the last four years, and I’m worried that very few if any of these will make it to the 10C drop (no matter what it looks like).

    Any word on the size of that poster? For some reason (probably the relative size of the text in the lower left) it strikes me as huge.

    I don't pay close attention to the posters anymore, but do all these Mumfords look the same? Feels like the same color scheme and design everytime I see his name.
