yeah, ain't it cool? actually, this poster wuz done cuz of an art show takin place at some art gallery here in mpls. i would buy this poster, if i had a frickin credit card.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

email Stephanie at info@obeygiant.com and ask her if you can send them a check.

that was one of the few questions i forgot to ask her in my email. (finding out how many they have and if they'll print more if they run out.)

of course, that's all moot once prince sees this and jerry goes into action :\

aka buy one asap.

suomynona said:

i'd send a check 2, but i don't have a checking account.


yeah, really...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

email her and ask her if you can send a money order then...

email her and ask her if you can send food stamps. (just covering all bases here...)

FunkyNose said:

...say huh?

This poster was made specially for the OX-OP Gallery show in Minneapolis, aka hometown of Prince
Limited Edition, 100 prints

order before they run out people. i was told they won't be printing more...

suomynona said:

Who is Jerry and why would Prince "make him stop" the print?

JayMeStarr said:

"jerry" is jerry blackwell, p's attorney. 'nuff said.

JayMeStarr said:

jerry is prince's lawyer (a black david letterman look-a-like)...
and unless prince is getting paid when someone else is for using his name, etc, nobody else is.
too bad for prince that this'll be completely sold out before jerry is informed

I was almost tempted to paypal the $30 but then I remembered I don't really like Prince all that much anymore. It is cool though.

suomynona said:

Nice work man. That's pretty cool.

lovemachine said:

it looks better on a white background... haha.

FunkyNose said:

ya lost us.

can someone give me more details about what the OX-OP Gallery show in Minneapolis is? where is it? what's it all about?

igorsGROOVE said:

dunno exactly, but if you want a print of this, the company that's selling them is based out of los angeles and probably only has a handful left at this point... if that.

igorsGROOVE said:

you can find more info about the gallery show at ox-op's website.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

thanks folks. was curious about the gallery...since i live by it (same street actually..though it's S and i'm SE.) but had never heard of it. however, i am wayyy too poor to be buyin prince prints.

igorsGROOVE said:

you're here in mpls too? i live downtown the prince poster's only $30, which ain't bad...

igorsGROOVE said:

so am i... right now i have $13+change in my checking account... but payday is tomorrow, so i asked a friend to buy it for me (since the company that's selling them said they'd probably be out before friday and couldn't hold one for me.) anyways, i sent my friend a check for $30 on wednesday, so she should have it tomorrow hopefully

what can i say? i like weird things... i have a promotional poster for "the black album" framed on my wall. it's hilarious for non-prince fans to look at it as if they're trying to figure out what it's about...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

yup. right over in stadium village. and i agree, $30 isnt so bad.. i just dont have $30. i paid for the $3 cover at the dinkytowner in quarters 2nite. no kidding. i'm playing there on saturday, btw.

suomynona said:

hehe. if it was something i was that into i'm sure i'd go thru all that trauma too... like tickets to a show i absolutely had to see or something. so i understand where you are coming from

so could the black album promo be mistaken as the one for metallica.. or whatever other bands have black albums? or is there some indication that it is prince related?

igorsGROOVE said:

yeah, it has prince down at that bottom in peach colored lettering... i think folks just try to find something in the blackness.

suomynona said:

you know what? i think that even though i KNOW it's just black.. i might STILL have that reaction...hehe.

Somebody explain to me the concept behind this Che Prince? I know who Che is, what I don't get is why the two are being compaired.

just in case you aren't joking...

How much was it?

I am kicking myself for not seeing this thread earlier...
