Did anyone checkout the artists' section they had in centeroo, it was kinda across from the sonic stage. I thought it was a great idea. I got to meet some of the artists that make some of my favorite gig posters, most notably Guy Burwell and Jared Conner. They were very down to earth and revealed the personality that goes into each of their works. Both my brother and I collect artists signed and numbered gig posters, but no matter how early we got to centeroo to check for the art, it would have been sold out.
Is there anyone out there who has there hands on the Guy Burwell Phish Bonnaroo poster and is willing to trade or sell? We are big fans of his work and of phish, but even bigger fans of Bonnaroo. The three together is epic. Ebay has them going for way way to much and cant afford those prices, but i thought it couldnt hurt to check here.

Good luck with that. The problem with the posters is that the merch booth f'd up and sold large quantities to a few people. So only a handful of normal Bon goers got their posters. So the rest of us are forced to buy from idiots that bought up 80 of the pieces. Hence the big ticket value currently on ebay. The guy selling them for 300 is ridiculous, but I really don't see the posters going much lower than 150-200 range simply because of the fiasco involved.

#30 ? Nice , that's probably one of the lowest public available numbers. mine is 101, which is kinda cool. definitely the best phish poster from the 1st leg.
Burwell's mmj from roo last year was really hot and is going for the same price as the phish from this year.
I had a nice long chat with Guy at his tent, awesome dude, it's so fucked up that he got jacked. Also hung out for a bit with Pollock, he's hysterical.

Wow I had a chance to buy the Burwell but thought it was kind of ugly. I bought the Pollock Bonnaroo poster instead. Guess I should've got it and traded with some of you guys.

Got it framed (cheap poster frame) and matted (cut it myself, looks like crap closeup but if you're more than a foot away it's fine, and so much cheaper than having a shop cut the matte) about a week ago and finally hung it up today in the office
