Agree w/ Existence...we didn't really start collecting posters until 2017, but if we both don't really like it we just saved money of bought lunch and diner for the next show...

That said, we passed on Hartford 2019 and both SPAC nights in 2019 (despite getting the rail on N2), but then bought the drive-in posters because we actually liked those. We also bought a couple of Drive-In posters for shows we didn't go to for our boys because they dug them. Also some of the money was supposed to go to Bama Works...

We have also been among the extremely fortunate so far during the pandemic...probably donated as much money during this time as we had in all of our previous years...still doing it and looking to do more.

Cool, I hope that's in place for Mansfield. Watch it be a Sasquach...

Anyone know if Methane has all of the N2 posters for this tour? A couple years ago in 2018 and I thought again in 2019 they had all of the N1 posters and then another (random) artist had all of the N2.

Yea, I kept getting lame posters for shows I went to so I started to just collect ones I actually liked. It has saved me some money for sure.

Todd Slater just posted a teaser on facebook for an upcoming gig print for a show “this weekend”… bet it’s DMB.

[Bearclaw_]

If for DMB, looks nice.

Holy shit that's amazing.

[lockman21]

Supposedly there's a link these days the WH sends out before the show to order the poster ahead of time? Is that right? What time does that usually get sent?

I mean, I’d like to see the whole thing first But yes, it definitely looks promising.

[lockman21]

At this point I get excited about anything that isn't a blue Methane poster for a show I'm going to

You got Phish at Deer Creek, Widespread in Asheville, and DMB in Chicago. Lot of options.

Looks like that artist has used that girl for two other DMB posters though. Looks like an ongoing theme.

Edit: not specifically THAT girl, but a girl’s profile.

[grilldanmo]

No feeling the chickadee posters...

Some very skilled artists doing great work with color so far, but I would really dig one of Todd's posters being only animal based for DMB.

[but1well]

I really liked the WPB n1 poster. Very miami vice 80s vibes. A nice change from methane clip art garbage and drawings of half naked women, neither of which I want hanging on a wall in my home.

Any chance a mod can sticky this thread and un-sticky the 2020 one?

Much obliged.

Awesome, thank you!

And I'm assuming it's just an email?

I've ALMOST done that twice now. The Dallas 2019 cowboy one and one of Charlotte one (the Methane car series from... 2016 maybe?). I think next time it's a rough one I'll have to pass.

[Moose Thompson]

The Slater girl is an art print, he clarified in the comments. He does have a Foo Fighters lady coming, though.

I do not believe Methane has all of the N2s this tour.

I'd like to know how management decides which posters get a foil or variants. The Tampa Tong seems perfect for a foil but apparently there won't be any. I wonder if it comes down to what the artist negotiates or if there's some sort of system they follow.

[RiotAct]

yep… Slater just dropped his art print… looks sweet.

[Crash1983]

Tonight’s poster

[Bearclaw_]

Damn. That’s amazing.

Hoping to snag one on WH before the show.

[RiotAct]

Best of the tour so far, easily. Love Ken Taylor’s work. I need to frame the Virginia Beach ghost ship someday.

[lockman21]

Welp, looks like I'm showing up early so I can grab a poster.

[grilldanmo]

Pretty much not feeling any of these posters. Widespread Panic released three posters for they Ashville run (each one for all three nights) and I like all of them better than the DMB selections this year.

If we actually end up going to any shows this year, I'm not liking our chances of them selling a poster we'd even appreciate let alone buy.

Yes! I am constantly trying to find this and it just occurred to me that I can fix that. Ha! Done.

[prdstmnky36]

Hope all those posters stayed dry!

I actually like the tour poster but I missed it in Raleigh and I'm not going to any more shows.

[grilldanmo]

Tomorrow's poster has a TON going on, but it's cool how it incorporated the city and its landmarks, sights, and sounds.

But the buses on the L and the one going over the river...really surprised they cleared this one...

Never mind I see it.

Interesting. Methane?
