This is the second year I’ve made a poster for Leftover Salmon’s annual show at the historic, haunted Stanley Hotel, made famous by “The Shining” Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick’s famous horror story. Here’s a toast to Lloyd, evil bartender from Hell, and quite possibly the Devil himself. As Jack Torrence said, “I like you, Lloyd. I always liked you. You were always the best of them. Best goddamned bartender from Timbuktu to Portland, Maine. Or Portland, Oregon, for that matter.”

I’ve been looking forward to this weekend for a very long time, ever since I scheduled a Widespread Panic poster to appear between two Black Sabbath shows. Panic is very near and dear to my heart! I’ve been calling this “Sabbath Sandwich” with the meat in the middle. I worked very hard to make this poster shine!

My inspiration was given by the band, “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil”, and I ran with it without referring to the movie or book, but just using the idea as a theme. I created an image that suggests Eve in the Garden of Eden, but also suggests Eurydice who once bitten by the snake is taken away to Hades where Orpheus the Prophet-Musician must play his most beautiful music before the King and Queen of the Underworld to save his one true love. It’s a story about the power of love, the length of love and the strength of music to heal. I’ve been creating floral patterns for many of my prints over the last few years; I wanted to create a floral pattern for the background, but this time, a harmonious non-repeating one, which has the rhythm of nature. It’s always okay if you just want to enjoy it for your own reasons, but that’s my inspiration.

I think you have heard this from every artist tapped to make a Black Sabbath poster for this, their last tour. It’s an indescribable honor, a high point, especially for a veteran of the Rock Poster medium, like me; I’ve made posters (and by made – I mean printed every last one – haha!) for over twenty years, and this poster stands out as one of the greatest honors, truly a dream come true! I have rocked out to “War Pigs” for as long as I can remember. Now I’ve gotten to put my artistic stamp on this song, for a huge show for Black Sabbath at Madison Square Garden in New York City – and it’s a kind of surreal but highly satisfying experience.

UM-NYE-FOIL

My poster is inspired by the Norse God Thor, who lords over the earth from high Valhalla, above the Rainbow Bridge at the end of days, Ragnarok.
–
New Years Eve is a symbolic renewal, a rebirth of creative energy, and a transformation of old patterns into new. With the end comes a new beginning!
–
I have always been inspired by the mystical and underground comix style of the master poster maker, Rick Griffin. This poster is a tip of my Viking helmet to the king.

I will be making a very limited release of my Artist Edition and Mirror Foil Edition on Thursday (appropriately enough: Thor’s Day), January 7, 2016 at a random time.
