Thanks Randomizer! Damn--so much drama on this one.
I own 417 (Spri-town), mostly because no one else wants it. By default.

Joanna Wecht :

I had a hamburger at McDonalds today. It had a hair on it. ...a long black curly, greasy hair. I removed it and ate the hamburger.
That's how we roll in the 978.

affirmative on the ferrari. but he's just a poor boy from downtown moscow.

dennyschmickle :

I wonder if he's still drivin that beatdown Ferrari, trying to squeeze any leftover celebrity out it.

this site is tearing us apart.

John A :

Watch your plurality, Zach. Either both or neither have to be plural to be equal.

2006-05-26 13:43:34

Zach Hobbs :

TURD=RAISINETTES

2006-05-26 13:38:52

John A :

where can a guy get some raisinettes up in this piece?

2006-05-26 13:38:16

Zach Hobbs :

I'll only add that I wasn't trying to be an ass. I like everyone from Austin that I met at FS8. 8ball too.
This poster is a turd anyway

2006-05-26 13:38:15

erick :

just for the record, I'm not complaining at all. Zach and I did a poster for the same show once. I never had a problem with it, and I don't think he did either.

2006-05-26 13:35:49

bdix :

I think it's a relevant issue, as it pertains to the poster world as a "scene" as well as a business. and it's an issue that won't be discussed seriously here. I'm cool with 8ball and Zach so my views aren't based on loyalty or territory. they're based on considering the future on the genre. O.K. that's enough carl gruber for me today.

2006-05-26 13:27:01

philaarts.com :

zach first attacks jermaine, now austin artists.
zach sucks. i hope he dies.

2006-05-26 13:20:22

bdix :

so I can get buried at Giants stadium?! No thanks!

2006-05-26 13:17:10

amy jo :

Bobby - you should lobby the API to work on unionizing poster jobs so we all get paid!

2006-05-26 13:16:00

bdix :

Emo's is gonna outsource all their posters to India. So get in while the getting is good. :)

2006-05-26 13:14:29

amy jo :

zach knows a guy at Emo's that gives him the ok. and also sometimes gives erick the ok for the same show. that happens here too. we started our own online calendar so that doesn't happen.

2006-05-26 13:13:30

Dusty! :

word. i didnt read the whole thing. just that post from 8 ball that made it seem like he didnt ask to do it.

2006-05-26 13:13:06

phoondaddy :

When you are 8 feet tall, you always have permission.

2006-05-26 13:09:36

bdix :

venues have it too easy. there will always be 100 artists willing to do a poster for free.

2006-05-26 13:09:19

Michael Apparatus :

Zach mentioned earlier that he did indeed have permission.

2006-05-26 13:05:34

Dusty! :

wait, was this done with out the venue's permission / ok?

2006-05-26 13:01:09

bdix :

Ultimately I think the best resolution in the longrun, for EVERY poster artist, is to get hired for gigs. We're way too undervalued.

2006-05-26 13:00:51

bdix :

all of my "out of town" gigs were commissioned by the band or venue. I've never asked to do a poster for an out of town venue. I think there's a big difference there. But that's just my opinion.

2006-05-26 12:49:00

Ewing :

Usually just enough to cover costs. Maybe they've changed their terms but that's how they set it up with me and other folks during that time.
All you hafta do is ask. Some venues or promoters have a budgets.
Otherwise get as many free tickets and drinks as you can.

2006-05-26 12:48:29

goad74 :

I was shorter then everyone in elementary school so red rover was a nightmare for me....where most kids would break through arms about chest level, I would be about throat level.
ACKKKK was heard quite a lot outta me.

2006-05-26 12:44:15

bdix :

well then you are a pimp.

2006-05-26 12:43:58

Ewing :

Emo's always paid me.
bdix 2006-05-26 12:02:15
hiring. that's funny.

2006-05-26 12:42:51

phoondaddy :

RED ROVER RED ROVER SEND EICHELBERGER RIGHT OVER.

2006-05-26 12:40:11

rockologist :

i meant, poster-maker red rover.

2006-05-26 12:39:02

rockologist :

we should play poster red rover.

2006-05-26 12:38:38

Mikey Jacket :

I like the idea of turf wars alot. Poster artists meeting in back allys with ankle bandanas and metal chains.

2006-05-26 12:38:05

bdix :

just "big name" bands please. d'OH!

2006-05-26 12:32:07

rockologist :

that was my joke. see, i was trying to play jaded and stuff. i love posters, when does the punching start again?

2006-05-26 12:30:32

amy jo :

sometimes. but not at minneapolis clubs.

2006-05-26 12:30:27

rockologist :

is there ever?

2006-05-26 12:29:17

amy jo :

ps: there is no money involved

2006-05-26 12:27:19

bdix :

hook me up while you're at it. :)

2006-05-26 12:26:35

amy jo :

yeah that was my point. open arms and all that. i think it would be awesome if 8Ball did a poster for the Triple Rock. i'll help set it up.

2006-05-26 12:23:29

steve w :

A lot of out-of-towners make posters for chicago. I don't think it's an issue here.

2006-05-26 12:18:13

phoondaddy :

What did the 5 fingers say to the face?
**SMACK**

2006-05-26 12:16:30

amy jo :

BRLSQ, AA and myself have made posters for shows in Chicago. The Bird Machine probably has hit men out for us now.

2006-05-26 12:15:44

austin is sleazy.

2006-05-26 12:15:34

2006-05-26 12:14:30

so is someone gonna punch someone already or what?

2006-05-26 12:12:52

bdix :

hiring. that's funny.

goad74 :

Dave is a Poster Baron

2006-05-26 11:52:58

philaarts.com :

i cant wait to upload MY poster for the show.
when i can i try my best to make sure only 1 poster is done for philly gigs, but sometimes more than one gets done.
and that is zachs fault.

2006-05-26 11:37:01

Ewing :

Graham has had more than one person do posters for the same show. In my opinion, Graham always meant well. I like how people get territorial but Emo's has had so many poster artists do stuff for them that no one really has clout there. It's like doing posters through Philaarts for a Philly show.
I've had people try to snake me out of jobs because I wasn't local. Especially in TX. It's up to who does the hiring and not who does the designing.
You don't like it...work harder at getting the job first.

2006-05-26 11:21:47

Miss Glover :

Erick is known as a giver more than a taker.
Anyways, I like the poster.

2006-05-26 11:11:42

Internet arguing is KOOL! Tom and I RUN the mean streets of the 413 though, yahearrrrrd.

2006-05-26 10:01:49

erick :

2006-05-26 09:53:36

bdix :

nice poster btw.

2006-05-26 09:37:21

bdix :

just imagine if I liked all y'alls stupid music. I'd ssssssnake all the jobs from EVERYONE!!! muuuhahahahaha! or I'd just stay home and eat pork rinds that I usually do. Either way it's win-win for me.

2006-05-26 09:36:46

dennyschmickle :

I do posters for Emos all the time, I just don't tell you jerks about them. Or Emos for that matter.

2006-05-26 09:18:34

RADAR :

four-oh-forevah bitches. but i still have 512 on my phone cause these ATL fools say there are no more 404 numbers to give out. I still do 2 or three posters a year for Emos cause they helped me get started.

2006-05-26 09:17:41

jasoncross :

i am sure all those austinites are FROM austin...as an austinite who is no longer living there I find it funny when people move to austin then want to claim it all to themselves, as if they found it and it is somehow theirs...whatever.
great poster.

lets take this beef to MySpace guys, seriously

2006-05-26 07:40:32

wa-wa-wa-wa-wooorrrrrd

2006-05-26 07:35:36

phoondaddy :

I don't understand the "city you don't live in" part. Lots of poster artists make posters for different cities.

2006-05-26 07:33:08

Zach Hobbs :

I understand where 8ball is coming from. Totally. Just don't like the public nature of the beef.

2006-05-26 07:24:31

altieri :

Zach's characters are great! He should have his own cartoon on Nickelodeon or Cartoon network.

2006-05-26 07:22:41

phoondaddy :

Playa h8tin'.!
Fuck all that noize, make posters for the venues, cities and bands that you want to, especially if you have permission. Fuck all that this is OUR city shit.
Keep makin' posters Zach!

2006-05-26 07:15:04

Zach Hobbs :

I think it is creepy and backhanded that you mention this on a public forum. I've done my last poster for Emo's. I also decided this when I told YOU in person that I was looking for other venues.
And if anyone else from Austin wanted to say something the entire time why not PM me? Why not be a man about it and email me? It's ridiculous that you choose this method to call me out. I did ask for these shows and I do have emails to prove that I got permission.
Thanks for playin.

2006-05-26 07:10:15

8ball :

Zach...this artwork is great...but you really need to branch out to different cities and venues...I think it's weird that you're making posters for shows in a town you don't live in...when the bands or venues don't ask you to do them....especially in a town full of poster artists...it's very creepy...and backhanded...
It's like me making posters for the triple rock...

2006-05-26 03:21:41
