see, I think the opposite. To me, the lettering here (and image as a whole) is just way too busy. Looks messy as drymount to me. I can appreciate the talent, but composition has to come in to it somewhere.
I miss stuff like this, and is the reason why I haven't purchased his work in some years.

Honestly can't remember if it was 1 per or multiple @ the Triple Rock. I rolled with a few friends, so I just gave them cash to grab an extra. Pretty sure everyone that made it walked with a few copies if they wanted a few copies.

As I recall from the thread at the time - they had very few for sale at the Triple Rock show. I think many people walked away disappointed, as a result. Or am I thinking about another show with one of Aaron's posters?

That wasn't the Converge Triple Rock show. Pretty sure that was the Graveyard show? I remember people were freezing balls waiting in line and then there were very few available from merch? Can't be sure but I know it wasn't Converge because I didn't show up until late and they still had plenty @ merch.

Yep, struck out at the Graveyard show, not many copies, sold out before I got in the door.

looks like some older Horkey's are available on Lonestarposters.com. Not much info on condition. I haven't bought from them since they resurrected a few years ago but they have been responsive to questions I've had. fwiw

The Locust '04 $200

$200 for that Converge is a steal.

I doubt it's in stock, i just checked out and it still shows as available, I'm sure I'm not the first person either. If it shows up I'll be pretty happy.

I hear ya. Denver is the 2nd show on tour with Birds in Row so there should be a few prints left over after the Albuquerque show. That's what I'm hoping. Ironically enough, last Converge show was also a Horkey print @ the Triple Rock back in '12. Fingers crossed.

:cheers:
Hmm, 3rd stop is within striking distance. I'm pretty sure I would not enjoy this show, but now I'm thinking about getting a ticket. 8)
Anyone make it out to one of the shows yet? I'm considering hitting the show tomorrow, but will prolly pass if the poster is gone. Already seen Converge before so it ain't like it would be a first.
