Flatstock 35 (Chicago) – Pitchfork Music Fest 2012
What a weekend. Another Flatstock has come and gone. This was the first time I tried doing the Chicago/Pitchfork Music Fest show and was definitely happy I went. Since I was at the booth the whole time I didn’t really get to catch any music except for a few (Godspeed You Black Emperor, Ty Segall, etc..).
The first 2 days were pretty miserable with thunderstorms lasting most of the evening. Us vendors were running around plugging leaky tends and keeping everything off the wet ground. Needless to say, sales were slow as no one wanted to walk around w/ wet, soggy ruined posters.
My booth babe….
Fine folks of Powerhouse Factories (Cincinnati, OH) shared our tent and kept the liquids cool and flowing. Good hanging w/ them.
The new Buffalo stickers were flying…. if stickers were posters, I’d be a millionaire.
Don’t feed the birds mini-burnt pieces of toast…
Sunday was great as the sun came out and I unloaded a bunch of stuff. I ended up meeting a bunch of good folks, including artists I was a fan of. Could definitely be in the cards next year. For a rundown of the festival check out Pitchfork’s site. Also Inside the Rock Poster Frame blog has a nice pictoral rundown of the folks of Flatstock… check it.
Wilco (Boise, ID) print now available…
My latest print for Wilco (Boise, ID… June 26th) is now available in the Posters section. It is a 6-color print and I only have 20 copies so its limited. Once the quantity gets below a certain point the price will be going up… so jump on it early.
$30, prints are signed & marked “AP” (Artist Print)…
Yeah yuh!!!!!!!!
Wilco poster… Boise, ID 2012
I recently moved back to the East Coast after being in the Bay Area for 10 years. One of the things that I noticeably missed was the feeling of summer and with that, …fireflies. Couldn’t find them out there. I recently was commissioned to do a piece for the band Wilco for their stop at the Idaho Botanical Garden in Boise, ID. Summer time… outdoors… .figured it was time to bring out the fireflies.
Wilco is a fun band and has a good poster following, so I was more than pleased to get a gig for them under my belt. This was a pretty limited print run and I will only have 20 copies for sale which will be up soon.

My stuff tends to get busy which is good and sometimes doesn’t work out so well. With this I came up w/ a couple different concepts w/ the fireflies but decided to keep it simple.
