I would love to get him to fill the venue and date in for the specific show I attended. Fat chance of that happening but it would be fantastic.

I thought the C was right-way-up but the top had been kinda clipped off.

I love everything about this poster, including the lettering.

Yeah, I think it's upright and the triangle part is the start instead of the end like in the gif. Look at the gap as if it's still connected but very thin. The first S works the same way around the circle part. I think it's also the same with the G where the trapezoid is the start. Otherwise, that piece doesn't seem to fit to me.

while you're at it, whip up a gif translate for this one as well...
