(click on images to see them fully (the rapture poster had to be slightly cropped, but all the others will fully expand when double clicked.))
you know how you turned your friends onto your favorite little-known band, and now they act like they discovered it all by themselves and think they are suddenly the “gods of cool-dom” because they have YOUR discovery on THEIR ipods? well, never fear - you are about to out-cool them to the extreme!
(okay, maybe that’s a bit harsh… it’s good to share info about great music, even with your ungrateful friends, right? so think of the advice that follows as another means of spreading the word about underground music, even though it does carry the side-benefit of displaying your consummate coolness.)
introducing the most incredible source of the best gig posters being made in the growing underground poster scene - Poster Cabaret. you are going to be blown away from the moment you enter this unique website. it will open up a whole secret world of dazzling music-related art to you (and, through you, your less-cool friends. *sigh*) and if you prefer art for its own sake, Poster Cabaret also offers limited edition and hand made art prints, often times made by the same artists making gig posters.
nothing can substitute for clicking right here and wandering around the gallery or searching by band name for limited edition gig posters. but to give you a taste of what awaits you, i have tortuously selected the above array of nine. these are not meant to represent the best - that would be immmmpoooooossssible! they are simply meant to serve as a sampling of the incredible variety.
oh, and the prices are totally affordable. in other words - these posters are perfect.
and with that, i’ll leave you to the personal torment of selecting which you will purchase.
bonne chance,
julie
