Show Posters

For our upcoming tour dates with Arcade Fire we made some new double-sided posters that we’ll be giving away FOR FREE at our merch stand. Below are a couple cell phone pics of what they’ll look like (click for a larger size). Sorry about the grainyness but you get the idea.

Great thanks to Sheila Sachs for designing!
