The project would entail a numbered run of unique, hand made silkscreen posters, designed by a new artist and printed by a custom silkscreen house for each and every venue on the tour. 20 artists for 21 shows in 30 days... I agreed, but naturally decided to heavily procrastinate until the last possible moment, before drinking 3 red bulls and reaching out to a group of friends, all highly creative and partially insane like myself. I asked them, one by one, if they were interested in doing a Primus poster and it was surprisingly unanimous, other than one anonymous party who told me to "Go eat a bag of dicks.." Next step was lining up 9 different silkscreen print houses, all spread out from Oakland to Minnesota, and one 19th century hand press, to handle crafting our art into a poster series. Here's a list of the blokes I somehow convinced to take part in this mayhem... Individual posters will be announced the day of each show via Primus' Facebook page. and a small number of the edition will be available from the artist's sites, linked below, following each show.

offered his opinion, "god bless usa." <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/45148/1984527/Screen shot 2011-09-10 at 2.37.15 PM.png" border="0" width="670" height="431" width_o="900"
