I wouldn't go so far to kill myself .. but yeah ... band first. Could have this same discussion over in the Velvet Revolver thread ... not a fan a Badu, or VR ... so, I'd never own these prints ... I like the prints, just wouldn't own them.

I own only one print for bands I don't like, the emek 10K lakes ... I just love the print, the detail, the guitar, etc ...

i cannot imagine owning that Velvet Revolver poster at any price. is it a bad ass design? hell yes! does it say Velvet Revolver on it. sure does. that sucks. the fact that that poster is $2K now blows my mind.

by the way, Stone Temple Pilots reuniting for the summer.

Myself, I have to like the band and the art. I don't own many gig posters.

Um, I'm just concerned that you know of a NKOTB Reunion tour. Are you going to that show too?

I've kinda moved past the band part, but like, the art has to be REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD if it's for a band that blows.

Like, I only own one Pearl Jam poster, and even that was a little hard to buy. The PJ Tribute band poster was even harder to buy. I don't know if i'd ever buy a Phish Poster, though. I'd have to see like, Mary giving birth to Jesus or something mindblowing for me to consider it.

I'd own a poster for a band I like even if the image is not the best ever.

I'd own a poster if I really liked the image even if the band was lame.

I'm not real excited about this print either way.
