    Description

    This is an ultra rare variant of the 3/14/2003 Justin hampton Queens of the Stone Age + Turbonegro poster, Memphis, Tn at the New Daisy Theater. I did a lot of album and promotional art for the band Eagles of Death Metal since their 1st record Peace Love Death Metal. Around 2004 or 05 Jesse Hughes, the singer of EODM, gifted me a bunch of QOTSA & EODM posters that he got from his partner in EODM- Josh Homme, (who's other band is Queens of the Stone Age). They were all posters by EMEK, Jermaine Rogers & Justin Hampton, done as a collaboration for QOTSA's tour for Songs for the Deaf that ran from 2002-2004. They collectively called this collaboration P.N.E. "Post Neo Explosionism". There were a handful of other artist's posters from the tour as well, from other cities along the tour.  The stack of posters that Jesse gave me included a few J Hamptons, J Rogers, EMEKs and others . So this poster came from a pile of posters that Queens of the Stone Age / Josh Homme got from all the artists on that tour. I have been unable to find a variant just like this one, all the other versions I find are part of the regular run, that dont have the decorative red border. I tried to reach out to Justin Hampton recently to see if he could shed light  on this variant but he did not reply to my email, so i cant tell you exactly how many variants he made like this or why its signed but not numbered, but its pretty rare. The poster measures 36" x 18", its in very good shape however it has some little spots of discoloration on the very bottom right hand corner (see pic) just below Justin's signature. I dont know what they are or how they got there but they're not too noticeable.
