GIG POSTER SALE - Special offer till Monday!

by blindjoedeath

HI

March 2008 sees a minor price hike for The Speeding Train. Increased print and postage costs means my profit margins are dwindling and it's about time, after 3 years, that I went with inflation.

So from Monday (March 3rd) it's going to be £5 per poster and my deal is now £12.50 for any 3 (plus postage).

BUT!

I am re-stocking in March so take the opportunity to buy a shitload of my old stock off me at the old price of £4 per poster and any 3 for £10 (plus postage) and I will throw in a minimum of 2 randomly selected archive posters of my choice too. More likely I will throw in about 4 or 5 as I have tons. I'll try and pick something you might like too.

Basically, all these are genuine gig posters, they're printed up and used to promote gigs. I print the ones for use on lighter glossier paper and the ones for sale on heavyweight matte finish A3.

I have piles of the glossy promo ones in my house and I can't move. So if you order any of the posher ones from me I will chuck in some of the glossy ones too for you. They might be a bit creased or have some staple holes or whatever but they're free, what's your problem?!

So have a look here:

and email me to check what I have in stock. This offer only applies to what I have in at present and it ends on Sunday 2 March.

Contact me on honeyisfunnyATfastmail.fm

I accept Paypal, cheque or lovely smelly cash.

There are over 100 to choose from...go see go see...

Ideal birthday present for my G/F

some of the more popular designs have sold out already just this afternoon so get in quick!


these posters are awesome

I've now filled my wall with them and have no space left. But you should all buy them!


already have loads

but payday tomorrow-woo hoo!! so expect another order sometime then


Bumpity bump

Bumpity bump


do not buy these posters

a LOW one i stook on my wall fell off and hit my friend on the head, he never walked again!


oh no

i bought a low one!

i better get some use out of these bad boys whilst i've still got them. thanks for the warning jordan.


This looks great

how much is postage?


2.50


i bought some.

they are wonderful. i recommend. i may even buy some more!


this seems as good a place as any

to ask if anyone knows any decent/cheap framers in London, as I have quite a stack of posters (and more to come from blindjoedeath) that are sitting unseen as I need to get them framed first.


I recommend

Wilko!

Their bog standard A3 frames are about 2 quid and are ace...


wierd

flicking through I found a poster for my band at a gig we never played....


which one?

which poster was it? did you pull out or the gig got cancelled or something?


it was..

jay from dubrek, confirmed us without asking us! one of us was away. Think I may purchase it as a lasting memory.... Great that I know who does these posters now, may get you to do some for us if your up for it?


oh yeah

it was the beyond this point are monsters / io one.


aha!

So you'll be in Io then. I heard some good stories about you guys, a wedding reception and questions of professionalism....

Also, do you know there was an american band called Io?

That gig poster was done for a promoter in Derby and I think all the bands pulled out apart from the headliners.


hahaha

yeah yeah, was madness! super drunk, watched little explorer and then went to mosh(?). Professionalism was questioned, but Jay pulled through... haha. I think theres a few bands called Io, alas jupiters moons are quite the in thing...

We didnt pull out :) we were never really asked to play until like a week before!

I see the posters sold out though, could have put it on my wall and imagined alternate realities


damn you do this a lot

they have Snow Patrol listed on one poster. AS IF!!


easy now

they played for Damn You! in 1998 in Colchester. Straight up. I supported.


i knows

jokes, blates


!

that flickr set is awesome!

so jealous of some of the bands/sets you've witnessed.

looking forward to my wilco, owls and hot snakes posters to arrive


If it makes you feel better

I am jealous of your comparative youth.


you still win

i'll never see unwound


they were

...shit. Honest. I love Unwound but the Leicester show waslike a massive codeine haze. In a bad way.


This thread is relevent to my interests

but i can't view flickr at work.. will def have to have a look later.


I bought some of these

but was just wondering if anyone could recommend some other places to buy gig posters like these.


not exactly the same

but a great poster designer who prints and sells his designs is Cam at myspace.com/twoducksdisco


also

Cam has loads of other great designers in his top friends, check them out too!


thanks

I'll have a look when I get home as I can't access myspace at work.
