I had a few more that were good too but I swapped them out so I could put Steven smiling in there. Pretty cool idea man! My girlfriend is ace with photoshop & graphic design. I'm gonna see if any of my pics are of decent enough quality to do something like that. Yours looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all about capitalism, but as two different folks I know we're trying to get lithos at SD, this fired me up. On eBay, the seller of the Tattoo Lady litho included a picture of the box that #150-250 came in. If they bought all 100, that kinda sucks... Ok. I still doubt he bought a full box of 100 lithographs, but that particular seller obviously purchased a bunch of them. So far he has listed 14 separate San Diego lithos on eBay (a mixture of both designs), and is crafty enough not to saturate the market by listing them all at the same time. I am sure there were plenty of people who wanted one who came away empty handed because of this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a Slash and Duff guitar pick too. Going to put them with my ticket and Nightrain pass in the frame. Hopefully it looks badass. Probably get a frame this weekend. Looks better than the lithographs. I've held my tongue here because everyone seems to love them but I find these lithographs truly horrific. Skeletons and skulls. GN'R were always better than this. This is Maiden territory. Why do they seek a skeleton to represent them so? Awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, this is something that has been going on since the beginning. I am pretty sure I've seen you comment about it before and wondered about it then, but didn't ask. Now on to the handmade poster... I think the collage of pictures from the show is a great idea. Lithos are great, especially for collectors, but to me the collage is just more personal.

Tourettes2400 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) Thanks guy, my wife says I am obsessed. She thinks I am crazy but I don't care. I think I like it more than my Atlanta lith because it is so personal. I am actually doing one like this but with every lithograph on it.

Great job on that, those are all great shots of the band too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think this band can be better than this. Can I ask you a question: why skullls/skeleton? Do they preempt death? Do they have an affiliation with the dead? There is no singular reason why guns should affiliate themselves with skulls - they were actually a better band than your Metallicas and Iron Maidens. Why must it be a skeleton which represents Guns? And no, I do not like the Appetite cross cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no, I do not like the Appetite cross cover. Thank you for humoring me and slaking my curiosity. I don't think they were trying to be deep. They were pretty much a you get what you see kind of band so I don't think they had any deep metaphorical/metahysical meaning to the use of skulls. I think they just used the skull theme because they liked skulls and they could. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dacatzass Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 The market seems to be cooling a little for these... at least on eBay with some of the ridiculous prices some were asking for. Lots of Completed auctions with no bids in the $175+ range. Next week or so should show the true value (for those interested in such things), but it looks like $100-$200 each depending on how popular the design is.

During the first few stadium shows they were about 100 each. Hell, I got my Vegas one for like 75 in May. Didnt buy one at the show cause I didnt want to carry it back to the hotel in the rain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerBubba Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Market is definitely cooling. A night one Vegas was a no sale at $175 and it went for $330 last week or so. My take on things... San Fran, LA, and San Diego were all bought up by resellers. Fans got (by and large) the lithos at the other sites. This you don't see KC, Cinci, Nashville, Houston and DC coming up for resale very often. i love that they did them. Hope the next tour they have lithos and instead of "Not in this lifetime", it's the tour supporting a new album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerBubba Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 So...I'm probably completely looking too much into this, but the last one "Tattooed Girl/woman" whatever. As that was the last show of the NA Tour, was that an analogy to Rocket Queen? I have seen some folks call it that? Also, I know the artist at Hatch that did Nashville, and of course familiar with the ones Arian Buhler did, but do we know the artists of the others?

I think my Vegas night 1 litho has some small print. Might have the artists name. Idk about my Chicago night 2.
