Music Posters

The basement stairway wall hosts our latest collection – music posters from the some of the shows we attend. There are two rules for this collection – we have to have gone to the show and I have to find the posters visually appealing.  Several years ago, my brother in law gave us a very large poster of Robert Johnson – one of those gifts that sound good to the giver (my brother likes blues so he’d like this) but that it is hard for the receiver to know what to do with. I know we’ve given him quite a few gifts like this too! Anyway, we hung the poster on the wall going down to the basement. Sometime later while buying tickets to a show, I saw a box of posters from previous shows that were there for the taking. I brought home one from my favorite band (The Hot Club of Cowtown) and hung it next to the Robert Johnson poster. Then I snagged a poster from the bathroom at another show and a new collection began!
