The Dirtbombs&The PaybacksSlow Bar, Nashville - TNSigned & Numbered Concert Posterby Print MafiaAbout the artist:There were tiny toys, weird magazines, vintage clothes -- oh and a pinch of screen printing -- in a little shop-above-another-shop that Jim Madison and Connie Collingsworth started. Screen printing was just an interest at first--Print Mafia was an idea. Many painstaking church and community event t-shirts were produced and many tiny toys and weird stuff sold from the store before a first gig poster.In 1997, Print Mafia came into reality. Producing a huge catalog of gig posters in diverse genres, Print Mafia has made stuff. And made more stuff. And made stuff from other stuff. From The Melvins to Marilyn Manson, from Jack White to John Mayer. Each individual poster, and this is a vital rule of Print Mafia's work, is done by the hands of Jim or Connie and done with a personal creative investment to the particular event. Print Mafia admittedly has their own style: distorted, gruff, messy, and very much alive - but strive to make, for example, a Bruce Springsteen poster look like a Bruce Springsteen poster by Print Mafia, rather than a Print Mafia poster that might be for Bruce Springsteen.Still rooted in Bowling Green, KY and still just the two of them as Print Mafia--Jim and Connie are surrounded by an epic group of families and friends that support (and often encourage) their pop culture obsessions with music, movies, television, cool junk, and especially the influences from their childhood in all of those fields. Classic, good pop culture is classic for a reason.About the band:The Dirtbombs are an American garage rock band based in Detroit, Michigan, notable for blending diverse influences such as punk rock and soul while featuring a dual bass guitar, dual drum and guitar lineup. The Dirtbombs were formed by Mick Collins (of the influential garage punk band The Gories) as a side project and started recording songs by 1995.The Dirtbombs have a long and widely praised history as a live act. Spin magazine listed the Dirtbombs at number 10 in their list of "Top 25 Live Bands Now" in the September 2006 issue. The band has opened for a diversity of famous acts: In 2002, the band opened for Blondie on their Michigan and Illinois tour dates, and in subsequent years, they've opened for Mudhoney, Radio Birdman, TV on the Radio and Spiritualized. Over the years, the band has headlined tours with such up and coming bands as the Black Lips, Be Your Own Pet, and Jay Reatard, many of which would go on to become major label acts. In 2002, rising art-punk band Yeah Yeah Yeahs opened for the Dirtbombs at the relatively small Bowery Ballroom in New York. Four years later, the Dirtbombs would open for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs at the massively larger Roseland Ballroom, also in New York City. The band jokingly refers to this trend as "The Dirtbombs Curse".Item Description:Date: August 16, 2003Performers: The Dirtbombs & The PaybacksVenue: Slow Bar, Nashville - TNDesigner: Print MafiaDimensions: 9" x 20"Edition: 40Screen PrintSigned and NumberedCurrently we have several of these in stock.All of them are from the same edition of 40 however,the individual print number in the picture may not match what you receive.See more items in our eBay store and learn about me and my exlusive online store.Sign up for our newsletter , we add products weekly and always offer great deals!Can't find something?
