Cheers to another tour, and hopefully fewer Methanes!

First one of the year:

    I see Methane clearly hasn't run out of their lifetime supply of washed out blue ink.

    Has anyone done stats on the poster creators? A year-by-year list of artists could be interesting. If this hasn't already been done, I may try to put something together in the doldrums before the tour

    I haven't seen a breakdown like that, but would definitely be interested. '08-'14 should be pretty easy.

    That is so funny, I was just thinking of starting one of these... a search for "2018 Poster", thread titles only, didn't yield anything (at least on the first three pages of results... lol)

    I wish Methane would just refuse to do DMB prints anymore. I'm not saying Methane makes bad art, but it's very clear they're tired of doing prints for DMB, the effort to make a good print for them seems minimal at best. I'd love to see some more branching out to other artists more often. Millward, Welker, Minsloff, Jermaine Rogers, smooth things over with Emek, YourCinema, etc etc. There are so many awesome gig artists out there other than the very small handful dmb uses.

    So far, I've got most of 2015 thru present entered.

    Here are some stats on Methane:

    2015: 30 of 64 posters, or 46.8%
    2016: 26 of 48 posters, or 54.2%
    2017: 14 of 33 posters, or 42.4%
    2018 (so far): 1 of 4, or 25%

    I like this one because it works in DMB elements, but that is the same shade of blue Methane always seems to use. Luckily, blue is my favorite color.

    Still can't believe that typo on the SPAC N1 poster last year

    Puts "Charlotttesville" to shame.

    Really wasnt much a fan of the NYC poster from last week, felt discombobulated. Also double fuck that poster and methane for throwing the tiger bunny thing on the guys newspaper in it.

    It was this abomination they put out last year in Georgia. It led to people flaming Methane on Facebook and they hit back and had a bunch of fAmily types defending/lOving the poster.

    Someone please do this and post it here.


    They literally shoehorn it into everything. Tons of their insta posts since have #tigerbunny

    Instead of just accepting they made a fucking disaster of a poster and moving on they continue to try and shove it down the fanbase's throat to somehow prove theyre right?
