I'm getting all misty eyed. Those were the days--I sold a shiteload of posters at that show! I muuust give props to Lure for the lovely hand rendered "Schwag" logo. I'm so jealous of his type skills.
Yeah, those were the best days - when Jim n' Shayni were runnin' the show there. A lot of great shows and poster art came out of the Sapphire's 'golden' days......er, sorry, I almost turned into a hippie for a moment....
first: stainboy, gooch and i worked on this together. i guess there wasn't enough room list all three names.
eyenoise, you got top billing for obvious reasons, even though you didn't show up.
shayni is great. she and jim created a great vibe at the sapphire.
i thought some of you might get a little chuckle out of the misspelling os "swag" we were given to work with, though.
So figurehead is still around? what about ink nineteen? That was a pretty rad little paper. Sapphire, the only place to play in Otown, besides Go Lounge, but that's now gone lounge.
Shayni rocked. She used to book us all of the time when we came through, and always treated us like the little rock and roll orphans we were. Fed us great, liquored us up, paid great, and so we played OUR ASSES off for her. And she was ultra-cool.
