ChristmasFnatic Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Bought a shirt of that design. No ones buying the litho. Theres too many left. Not numbered either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Not being numbered is not an issue. Bangkok lithos were not numbered and people are climbing over each other trying to find them. But it's very evident that even at a drastically reduced price, South American audiences just simply aren't into lithos. Which is almost certainly the reason why they didn't bother with them last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at a drastically reduced price (they were 50 Real, about 15 dollars) they just didn't sell. There are many reasons why shirts are more popular than posters at a rock concert but apparently even more so in South America. I don't blame them though, I would MUCH rather buy lithos online than at the concert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goneshootin Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) Just got tix to the oct 11 msg show and Hoping I can can complete my collection and get an MSG litho. Managed to get my hands on my original hometown litho (Regina). It looks great with my Slane litho from the show I was at in May which I love based on my Irish heritage. I was at MetLife last year but didn’t like the litho from that show. Sau paulo looks pretty cool! Heres my current two: Edited September 28, 2017 by goneshootin Typo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 You should get matching frames! I think it would look even more kickass with matching frames. Actually... now that I think about it - did you get the Slane frame custom made? Because it looks like it fits PERFECTLY and the European lithos were a strange, non-standard size. I spent hours trying to figure out what paper size they used for Europe and concluded it's not a standard paper or frame size. It's honestly not that much smaller than the US standard 18" x 24" so it's not really noticeable if you put a Euro litho into an 18" x 24" frame (as long as the backing board is the same color as the frame), but your frame seems to match the size perfectly. If you didn't get it custom made, please let me know what size frame you bought (and from where)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeman5150 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Do you guys think they will have lithos for the upcoming US arena tour? I hope they do, but they are hitting a lot of the same cities as the original stadium run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Comstock Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) Am I the only one thinking the Sao Paulo litho didn't sell because, like it's clearly stated on the poster, it's trash?

Are you kidding me? It's fucking AMAZING It's EASILY the best of the lot since the end of Europe. Maybe the reference is lost on some people though? The graffiti is a style unique to Brazil, called Pichacao: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pichação Nevertheless, Sao Paulo is one of my favorite designs without a doubt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Santiago litho Sorry for the bad photo - the flash washed out the pic but it's an Andean condor over the Andes (duh). Again, doesn't seem to be numbered. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaninjapan Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 The ink smells fresh and they were late arriving to the concert - the merch stalls didn't get them until pretty much GNR went on stage. I'm guessing it might have been a rush job haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the reference, I just didn't like the design. I'd actually rank it among my least favourite. The Chile one is cool though (I imagine the colours look pretty nice on the real thing).
