Stryker Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Might be embarrassing myself here, but what is the Nashville poster referencing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minks58 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 It's made by hatch show print, which is an old and famous print shop in Nashville. It's a letterpress which is a process that has its limitations but it's a very hands on technique using inks and wooden blocks to print. They have their unique appeal and following of collectors so getting a gnr hatch print yesterday was just icing on the cake. Google hatch show print, tons of history and lookup gig posters by them also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telly Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 The design isn't that remarkable, imo, but much cooler now that i know the story behind them. Glad I found a booth that had some. Wish the quality was better but probably goes with the method of making them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not embarrassing yourself, I've been racking my brain. Does anyone have a clue what this poster is all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHelgo Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I was able to get the Nashville one by heading over to the stadium around 4:15 on Saturday. Ended up getting slightly damaged during the course of the rest of the day, which is disappointing, but a cool piece of memorabilia from the show.

6lake sa66ath Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 The Pittsburgh litho(?) is huge, looks like a poster really, am I wrong? Also, the print translates much better on the poster than the t-shirt if you look closely.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard James Keenan Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) Love the Pittsburgh lithograph. I hope the Toronto one looks that good. Simple and bold is always the best. Nashville's was awful and KC maybe worse. If the Toronto one is good it will hang along with my Tool and Soundgarden tour posters.

ZoSoRose Posted July 13, 2016 Author Share Posted July 13, 2016 Pittsburghs is quite good. Having the plain logo is boring, but they still made it neat imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielCT Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 The Pittsburgh one looks fantastic. Hopefully the Philly one is as good. If I can get a shot of one I'll post it - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEPTEM Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Is there a way of getting the pittsburgh litho bullet logo in good ( the best posible) quality??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThermoNuclearWarrior Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 The Nashville litho sort of reminds me of Vic Rattlehead circa Rust In Peace 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al248005 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I thought the Pittsburgh litho is neat in how they referenced the Steel town into it with the molten steel. I was honestly expecting something with Heinz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree,the art for the 2nd show on July 3rd is superior for me.i like it the best cuz the font and art reminds of the same vibe I get from the comic book style art featured in the Creepshow 1 & 2 classic 80s horror films.Love it! I was at 1st Chicago show.i couldn't get either version,shit sold out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

challenger70rt Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Hey, just throwing this out there... Any one interested in trading a Vegas VIP litho for one of the Cincinati astronaut ones? I have two of the Vegas VIP litho's but the Cincy one is my favorite that I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
