Concert Posters
Forums:
I was just regrouping (taking photographs) and inspecting some old concert posters stashed away; that I may re-hang.
If anyone wants for some reason the full digital image of any of these posters, just let me know.
The first one is of the Jerry Garcia Band at C.W. Post College 12/6/1977. I didn't go to the show. I bought from a record store in Massapequa's wall in 1983 or so.

Here is one that I like. It was the last night of the tour and it was signed by the band at intermission. $10
It was a small crowd to start with and by the time they finished playing at 1:50am there was only 12 of us there. Fuck Florida's music scene.

MSG was always reserved floor, correct? What tickets did you end up with Bluelight?
I've also started try to get things together with my rather large poster collection.
Just framed a Garcia-Saunders poster from the Armadillo in '74. It looks good.
One down, many more to go!

The last tier, the worst seats I ever at MSG. So we went down mid-level and were in a corridor standing when the Dead went into St. Stephen 10/11
I tossed a very expensive Stetson hat in the air, like a Frisbee. Lost it...

NRPS - Didn't think much of them when I saw them for the 1st time in 1978, but Dave Torbert had already passed by then.
So was not including the Year always "A Thing" with concert poster artists?

These are great! Go get some
These are great! Go get some mylar and boards. Or frame in UV protection. No tape or tacks. Some of these would fetch a pretty sum. Of course no money is worth the memory! I have collected a few over the years. True art. I did not know Canyon was an artist. Thats cool! RRG- those 2 Relix posters are worth a few hundred a piece. Nice stuff yall

Recently met a neighbor who has the largest and most incredibly stored poster collection I've ever seen. HE had some duplicates that he donated to a fire victim. His pride collection is the beautifully framed Jazz Fest posters, ever single one of them. he did say he was probably going to sell them soon (as a collection) or maybe display them in a gallery since he was running out space to store them all.

My friend assembled a near complete collection of original Boston Tea Party concert posters. They were particularly rare, uncommon compared to the SF Fillmore concert posters from the same era. He sold the entire collection to one single collector, turned down several offers to donate it to the RnR HOF and another NFP museum in Boston. At the end of the day, the sale funded the land buy and build of his home. Not a bad ROI.

Yes, on 11/11/11 @ 11:11 they played the Eleven.
However there should have been a morning show to actually play during the Eleventh hour.
This has bothered me for years and I think about it daily.

They did play at The Saint (the old Fillmore East) on 1/15/88. That was the night I really fell in love with John Cippolina.

I have the playbills for this Dinosaurs Saint show. They played a few shows there, all produced by Relix. Wavy Gravy was usually there.
Really nice posters folks! You are a real artist Canyon, catering to our tastes!

I seem to remember that Hunter wasn't in the band by that point, and he, like Col Bruce in ARU, was the X Factor that Made the band.

It's the artist original (I assume it was banged out of an art class at CW Post) done in black magic marker and one hot-pink silk screen. I am guessing about 5-6 copies were made. One of which I saw on the internet and it's in black & white. It's precious & very delicate. Sorry it's not for sale. Your request is a very nice compliment slipknut.
