Not listed in that link: My old friend Thomas Scott at Eye Noise has an amazing assortment of his rock gig posters HERE. Looking through these is like flipping through a scrapbook of my college years in Orlando (especially the early ones). posted by General Zubon at 12:36 PM on June 21, 2007
Thanks jonson. Whenever I get around to building my Rock'n'Roll rumpus room I know what I will be decorating the walls with.

I frequent Bittbox, and I haven't seen this one. A big thank you!
Let this become the poster motherload!
Once the Mrs. and I purchase a house, our office will be lined with framed concert posters (mostly mine from the live venue at which I work.) These links will help. posted by blastrid at 12:55 PM on June 21, 2007
Which link is yours, jonson? I'd like to see your artwork.
also, I see it's a fresh Bittbox link...guess I should be more on top of the RSS. posted by blastrid at 1:05 PM on June 21, 2007
Here's one I love... The Small Stakes. Lots of great posters for Bay Area (and elsewhere) concerts. posted by kms at 1:07 PM on June 21, 2007
Which link is yours, jonson?
Seattle Show Posters. It's not his - it's ImJustRick's, who posted the first comment.
I logged in just to fav this post. Awesome collection. Thanks. posted by iconomy at 1:18 PM on June 21, 2007
blastrid, none of these are mine - I wish I had any kind of talent at all - the "self-link included" comment was made by ImJustRick, in reference to Seattle Show Posters, a site he runs and which he linked to in his first comment above. posted by jonson at 1:19 PM on June 21, 2007
CURSE YOU ICONOMY FOR ANSWERING BLASTRID'S QUESTION BEFORE I COULD!
But also: bless you iconomy for logging in to favorite my post! posted by jonson at 1:48 PM on June 21, 2007
I see now... whoopsh.
Great stuff, Rick posted by blastrid at 1:58 PM on June 21, 2007
There's a lot more variety in styles than I was expecting. For a while it seemed like every time I looked at modern rock poster sites the art was either a third rate Kozik or, even worse, a bad attempt at replicating Coop's style.
I cant wait to spend more time going through these sites, but already these Beulah and Spoon posters impressed me. posted by Slack-a-gogo at 2:58 PM on June 21, 2007
Bob Masse has been doing rock posters since the 1960s. I didn't notice him on the linked article or in the already-posted comments. posted by steveburnett at 10:11 PM on June 21, 2007
Picked up this one at Coachella by Emek, the pictures don't really do it justice, it looks amazing with the metallic inks and highlights.
Wish I was half as talented as these guys, there's some amazing work. I saw a great display of posters here at the Experience Music Project in Seattle, I think it was a temporary exhibit though. posted by mikw at 12:14 AM on June 22, 2007
Check this concert poster site. A lot of great concert posters for Portland. www.portlandposterpole.com posted by The_Cynic at 1:04 AM on June 23, 2007
