Two posters – together on one piece of paper, as they were printed – two great tastes that go great together.

Motorhead, Reverend Horton Heat and Nashville Pussy at the Warfield Poster

motorhead

How’s this for a Rock Moment? I leave George Gamboa and Doug Dashiell to go to the Warfield lobby and get a beer as Nashville Pussy wraps their set. In the lobby I run into Goldenvoice head honcho David Lefkowitz who says, “Chuck! Great poster for tonight!” and Eric McFadden appears and I say, “Hey Dude! You rocked the shit out of ‘Low Spark of High Heeled Boys’ with Gov’t Mule last week! Ron and I have to have a recording of that. It’s one of the Firehouse’s favorite songs. Amazing!” Right then Nashville Pussy’s guitarist, Ruyter Suys comes busting through the door on the shoulders of the biggest friggin bouncer at the Warfield, says. “Hey! Eric!” and deposits herself right into Eric McFadden’s arms right in the middle of this convo. Amazing show!

Slice of life and great night! Idea for the poster is something like this: Knights Templar, Knight of Rock’n’roll, or just plain Metal. You decide.

Three versions for your choice:

Here’s the first poster I did for the Firehouse-Goldenvoice Poster Series.

Nick Cave played at The Warfield in San Francisco, California on September 19 and 20, 2008 with Red Sparowes.

I designed a 4 color silkscreen gig poster for this event using a very fine etching collage I created. This poster measures 26″ x 23″ and comes from an edition of 250, signed and numbered. This poster is #3 in the Firehouse Goldenvoice poster series.

I designed the 39th gig poster in the Firehouse-Goldenvoice Series for the Mogwai concert on May 17, 2009 at The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco, California with special guests Dead Meadow.

I used a blue-tinted silver and layered process color over it and got great results. This one shimmers and shines.

Gov’t Mule Warfield Posters by Sperry and Hunter

_GMA0054_full

_GMA0071_full

Dave Hunter and I created and printed a two-up poster for Gov’t Mule when they played Friday and Saturday, September 25 and 26, 2009 at the Warfield, Firehouse Goldenvoice Poster Series numbers 66 and 67.

These were printed together on one parent sheet and cut apart, so the challenge was to bring out the best in each artist while sharing the same color palette. We chose to print a heavy silver metallic and tint the silver with three custom mixed primary colors and black.

Both posters are available here in a limited offering.

A very limited release of uncut sheets containing both posters will be made at TRPS Festival of Poster at the Hall of Flowers in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park on Saturday, October 10, from 10 am to 6pm.
