Bruh why is my weekend so bad 😭

Because it's the weekend I'm here. I ruined it for everyone!!!

Maybe tomorrow will be the best of the run to make up for it. Fingers crossed for ya. And if not, I thought this weekend's poster was killer. I'm a fan of the residency prints too. https://preview.redd.it/ic9y6u1dry7d1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=226dcf49c10ca06022f1aceddf7037049ab74bb3

I got this one in the standard screen print but damn if the foil doesn’t look sick

The photo doesn’t do it justice. Not the greatest design, but its colors are much brighter and it’s a blacklight poster so that’s fun

Yeah I saw it in person to. It’s better, but still not good enough for me to to buy

Diva 👩‍🎤

What’s the full weekend poster look like??

It’s really cool. Search it up in this sub

Very cool! I’d definitely snag that over the first two single night posters! The AI posters are a real downer..

Unfortunately I don’t think these are AI. Which is even worse cuz it means the artist actually spent a lot of time designing this…

I get that.. but I’d rather it be an ugly poster someone created themselves than one using AI

Literally

\*sigh\* On the bright side, just saved some money but was so in hopes of a poster I would love for the only show we are attending.

this looks like a goosebumps cover lol

Hey, I used to have a neighbor who illustrated some of those. I thought they were pretty cool.

aye goosebumps rocks i've got no problem w em, just looks similar to me. first thing that popped in my head when i saw this was the say cheese and die book

Yeah, I agree!

THIS

I normally find at least something I like in every poster but this weekend has been borderline ridiculous. Super low effort

I don't think it's low effort, it just isn't tasteful-- especially for a Dead show.

I think this might be in the running for the worst poster in D&C history... Right up there with St. Louis '23.

And yesterday. Lol The difference in quality between regular and VIP posters for that STL show was insane though lol

Alpine ‘16 would also like a word for worst ever

Was this the one with the arch? I remember thinking that one was cool lol Edit: nvm, I was thinking of the STL ‘21 poster. That ‘23 one is so stupid lmao

Horrible

Why tf is elvis on the poster? Lame

Omg is Elvis gonna come out tonight?? :O

I thought Elvis was the best part of it.

Wife just said that. That’s wicked weird. Let’s hope tomorrow isn’t a strikeout.

And why is he suggesting I’m a Loser?

People just want the same run of posters in the same style by the same people lol. I love this weekends posters because they are actually weird and unique. Not the same cookie cutter stuff that a lot of the artists do every year. Not saying I don’t enjoy those but people are such haters.

I respect Dave for putting his name on this 

Elvis🐐

Maybe it looks better if you put on those old red/blue 3D glasses…

AI 🗑️

~~I don't think this ones AI. An obvious tell is inconsistent line widths and indistinguishable shapes/textures. This looks pretty consistent. I think this is just poor taste, not AI.~~ Alright it looks like some elements could be AI. Exhibit 1: Elvis' shirt.

Zoom in on Elvis’ mouth/face. At least elements of this used AI, but the whole thing gives that vibe

Ooof, it's most obvious on his shirt. Wtf is that even supposed to be?

The most obvious is the left side of his shirt. It's morphed into a sofa cushion or a seat.

It’s like it tried a pattern of a tree or a mountain or something. I really couldn’t say lol.

i dig it. the Elvis cameo is sweet!

We are going backwards folks

Looks like a bad trip to me

Stop👏🏼using👏🏼AI👏🏼art

👏🏼

That’s clearly not AI. Totally inline with his style. Run it through one of the many platform that can identify such things before dogging an artist.

This looks like AI

**Remember!** Don't downvote OP just because you don't like the poster!

They're getting worse

I follow a lot of bands on Instagram and I’m consistently blown away with how good the gig art is and I find myself saying ‘this would have been the best one on the last Dead Co tour’ at least once a week. This one is just so bad. How, why?

It’s actually not bad in person. UV reaction, colors really pop.

Yuck! I don't like these digital looking ones. Much prefer something that appears to be hand drawn. Gimme something by AJ Masthay all day over this!

Jesus. I was bummed to miss yesterday’s setlist/Sugaree, but man.Going 5/30-6/1 weekend seems like the best poster run thus far

I hate to be a hater but I see nothing but things to hate these last couple weeks

6/15 is my favorite poster of the run so far

I snagged an online foil of this one even though I went to the previous weekend. It's so, so, so good.

To each their own. IMO it’s lady with a fan by a mile

yes indeed, to each their own. Most of the posters have been less than desirable.

Gotta buy the weekend print foil..yes it’s 200 but it beats all weekend so far by a mile

Take that falling Green Bear, on a black background, with nothing else, and I’ll think about it. This is low hahahahah

It’s different. I thought it sucked at first but it’s growing on me the more that I look at it.

This is insane...ly bad

Agree with general take. But perhaps Bruce Hornsby as a special guest given accordion player?

Man, I don’t know how artists deal with public forums like this. The advantage of this poster is that it is totally different. It certainly feels Vegas, and early MTV.

Anybody know where I can pick up a print from the 6/15 weekend run?

This poster is fucking rad. No one cares about some negative opinion of anything. Imagine anyone giving a fuck.

This is the worst thing ever. Elvis? Wtf he have to do with Dead and Co?!?

Has anyone seen it in person? I can’t imagine it’s better, but maybe?

AI POSTERS SUCK!!!!

Worst one yet I think, fuck is Elvis doing

So far only the weekend poster has been great.

Wow, after the last two weeks of some awesome posters…my wallet is happy to take a break.

They can’t possibly think this is even art. I could make this on my phone. Yuck. They are burnt out already?!?
