Poster attached to the Nashville song vote. Doubtless there's a less generic
one forthcoming.

It doesn't work like that Nikkei, designers are on staff.
As far as I know only the posters bought at shows are numbered 1-600, but as the delivery date is June 30 (I think) for the web-site posters we wont know for a while, unless someone knows for sure now.
It is great to hear Charlotte Watts' poster sold so well. I did not go to the show, but if I had I would have bought 4 of the numbered alligator posters. I think you made a very wise choice to keep looking and find/purchase your very cool poster. 115? NICE!!
PS
If I am incorrect on any of that info I am sure someone will say so and please do.
Haha.
Pretty similar with ON FIRE Melbourne.
That's where the trouble is, they're just rehashing. Nashville is the Melbourne Neon's boring edition. Your loss I guess.
Brussels, Lisbon and Berlin really weren't blessed either.
My faves in Europe were Zurich (both), Vienna, Paris and Rome.
Sadly couldn't afford purchasing them
...I think they're always "open for offers"... (not 'up for grabs'; just 'open for offers'...)
Think there's been a bit of a misunderstanding here. I don't choose the final designs, the band does. I don't choose the designers working on staff, Bravado does. If anything, you'd be my competition. I'm just a designer so I'm confused how it's my loss. If you want to design posters and tour merch for the Stones get a job at Bravado [www.bravado.com]
I interact on this forum to get closer to fan feedback and answer the questions I can for those interested.
Please stick around, I appreciate the information and insight you have given us and I have enjoyed your designs very much.
I agree it's nice to have you here!
I will say (again) I am getting a bit tired of the tongue...is it a necessary component of every poster? I guess it's the only true identifiable icon of the Stones but I'd love to see someone take a chance and find some truly creative design that wasn't based around a piece of art that was 45 years old.
peace
RoyalHue, your artistry and presence is much, much appreciated here!
~"Love is Strong"~
I appreciate that Naturalust, believe me I totally understand your point about the redundancy of the tongue... imagine my position of trying to incorporate that element into every single design
I'll continue to try to expand beyond the tongue, abstract it, or push it's limits in my own designs. It does seem that the only designs chosen are those that incorporate it, so you can understand why it's so prevalent and utilized by all the artists/designers involved. For those fans like yourself who probably have a good amount of band paraphernalia and merch it can look overused, but perhaps the casual fan who probably has only one shirt/poster from their show experience wants or expects the tongue to be involved somehow. It's so recognizable across the world that it creates a bit of a double-edged sword.
Thanks for the answer and understanding. That all makes perfect sense. Rather funny that Stones are somewhat tying the artists and designers hands by choosing only tongue designs. True respect for the artist would tend to allow total creative freedom and encourage different elements. But the tongue brand is indeed big business and we've come to appreciate that The Rolling Stones are businessmen above all else. I'd still love to see ONE chosen that is outside the box.
peace
Talk about your favorite band.

Did anyone buy the Alligator poster from the Orlando show? The one I purchased was numbered 115/600. These seemed to be the most popular posters as I had to go to 5 different vendor booths to find any available. Were all the different city tour stop posters up to this point numbered? The reason I asked is that I noticed the Alligator poster on the RS merchandise web-site for sale - are these also numbered?

LIke the Nashville one. The ones for this tour are decent. Nothing as bad as the "infected" tongue from the winery show in Australia last year. Man, that was the worst - did anyone actually buy it?

I meant your loss in general to the Bravado staff of designers. And a heads-up that it starts to get repetitive. Charlie Watts Junior was given a go and she received much praise for it too.

Good discssion on the tongue and the artists!
Maybe that's why some of the posters with the smaller tongues, incorporated into such icons as the alligator often work best for me.

I love the alligator with a tongue, brilliant. Naturalust brings up a very good point, but this is what I look for in a gig poster. Which brings back to the dragon in the 1973 poster that is very iconic of course.
