With the echoes of a mad storm in Alpharetta, a Forbin's>Mockinbird and Icculus in Charlotte and a Dad heavy catsplosion (thanks Dr. Jack!) in Portsmouth, we sit on the eve of Super Ball IX. Phish's first east coast festival since the return.
In conjunction with this event, CRB Productions proudly presents the following limited edition handbills and 8 x 20 poster sized giclees, printed by Like Minded Productions:
Both the 4 x 10 handbills and 8 x 20 poster sizes come on 210 gram textured fine paper, 100% archival and are signed, numbered and titled (Revolution #9). Both the handbills and poster sizes are limited editions of 99.
This piece contains a fair amount of spiritual imagery...from Om symbols to the Christian cross, some Celtic like knotted writing for 'Watkins Glen,' etc.
The seven colored orbs represent the 7 chakras of the body, with two extra golden orbs (2 secret sets?) comprising a total of 9 Super Balls. Alladin's Lamp is represented in the image as well, giving a nod to Fishman walking through the Egyptian desert from the video announcement of leg 1. The Grim Reaper is also present, balancing the push and pull between life and death.
The 9 super balls, however, create a loose Egyptian Ankh or cross...a spiritual key of life (reveals to me the hidden door...), which trumps it all. From the cross to the sacred sound to the key. I created this before my first hearing of Steam, but I think the key idea fits nicely into the imagery of that song as well.
In any event...the handbills are $20 (includes shipping) and the poster sizes are $60 (includes shipping). Payments can be made directly to crazyredbeard@crazyredbeard.com via Paypal.
In addition to the giclees, Vince Oley, a very talented up and coming pin maker, helped me put together a 3 piece puzzle pin set for the festival. With only 100 sets of three available at this time, these are already going fast. One of the three pins is back stamped with my logo below and one is back stamped with a number (001-100). 3 piece puzzle pin sets are $35 (includes shipping). Payments, again, can be directly made to crazyredbeard@crazyredbeard.com via Paypal.
Please contact me at crazyredbeard@crazyredbeard.com for deal rates if you'd like to purchase both a poster and pin set or handbill and pin set or some other variation of merchandise. Always willing to knock off a little here and there for multiple purchases. We want you to be happy, mon!
