    I favor posters from shows that I attend but if one really jumps out at me I grab it.

    If I don't like the poster I won't buy it even if attending.  That's happened a few times (Noblesville 2010, Oakland 2022 night one) 

    I have some that I will be selling on PJBay at some point. Just not enough room on the walls

    I'd say 90% of the posters I own were from shows I attended. I have a couple that were gifts and a couple that I bought because I loved the artwork.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Most of my posters are from shows I attended.  However, I have a few others just because I like the art work.  For example the KY6 and Columbia bat.

    We definitely do both, as there are some amazing works of art out there. We tend to only buy posters of bands we actually listen to (for example, 311 has some AMAZING posters, but we're not into them, so we don't buy them). Pearl Jam, DMB, Pixies, Foo Fighters Death Cab For Cutie, and a few others, though, we do. When FF played San Jose a few years ago, and the poster was a mock-up of a Super Nintendo box, I had to get an AP.

    We are reaching a saturation point, though, where we have way more posters than wall space. I have a couple projects to get to first, but I'm hoping that for Christmas, I can build my partner a flat-file storage system, so that we can stash our posters in there, and pull them out from time to time. Maybe I'll also through together a couple of frames (we have *some* wall space left).
    Have you looked at a portfolio?
    You can more easily (and safely) look at them than other storage methods I've seen.
    Best decision I ever made. The Barocque (sp?) one is great. I wish I had an angled table it could sit on for display. Sadly I filled it up so fast. Already need another one. 
    Great call on table,  that would be sweet!
    You could always get one of these. It would be like living in a Spencers Gift Shop.
