Posters are out!!!!!!!!!

[Corona]

Friggin gorgeous...love Tuba Phil's. That's the one :)

[Corona]

Man what a great day!!!

[swag]

The Congo for sure, but I also like the JLL poster more than I expected to.

But I have no wallspace.

I'm gonna need a bigger house.

[mdfest]

Or you could just never frame them. That been my approach!

[ozzie]

Or you could just never frame them. That been my approach!

Which begs the question... we are unlikley to frame and hang our canvas from 06 for a coupla years (I hear ya on the bigger house). Is it O.K. to leave rolled up in the tube?

[sophisticated sissy]

They're fab-u-lous!!!
Love them both much more than I had expected!

[saturn]

I like the JLL better than I thought I would, too. But the Tuba Phil is terrific. Not sure which way to go this year.:confused:

Now that you mention it,.. my canvas still lives in it's tube... I'll make a call to a frame place for an answer....

And I "bed" plenty a question back in the day.....................

Both would solve your problem....

[NeenAtlanta]

Definitely going for both this year.

I may even try buying one of the expensive ones. Someone on this board a few months back said that is how he finances his fest trips each year. Buy one of the expensive ones, hold onto it for a few years, then sell it and use the huge profits to pay for fest.

Might look into that . . .

Tha math is actually much better if you buy many of the less expensive ones as they go up by a much higher percentage.....

ahh, thanks for the tip. That may be the way to go then. I'm definitely going to do some research . . .

[Lostcajun]

The colors are awesome. Congo poster is going to be on my wall this Summer when the mail them out for sure.

[Blumie]

I LOVE the Rebirth one: one of the best ever.

For those asking if it's ok to keep them in tubes for an extended period: I finally took all of my unframed ones -- several years' worth -- to be framed. All were in PERFECT shape.

I went to a chain called Corners; I think they're national. If you watch your mail or their website, they periodically offer significant discounts. (Framing is one of those ripoff industries where they can seem like heroes by offering 40% discounts and still make a decent profit margin.)

[NeenAtlanta]

ahh, thanks for the tip. That may be the way to go then. I'm definitely going to do some research . . .

Actually, the more I think about it, I don't think that is the way to go. I'd just be taking posters away from people who really want them. It would kind of make me feel like a scalper. Plus, you'd have to find that many more buyers when it is time to sell.

But if I just buy one of the more pricey ones, I'm not really hurting anyone.

[NeenAtlanta]

The Art4Now site doesn't have the 2007 posters up for sale yet. They have a countdown clock saying they will be available in 19 days.

It's ok to leave in a tube for a few years as long as it is not subject to too much humidity. I always store mine flat for a few years before I frame them. Definitely need a bigger house... at last count I had (122) framed pieces of art or photographs and only (3) are non-music/jazzfest/NOLA related. I plan to start rotating pieces as I have a finished area in my basement I use for overflow. I have about (50) pieces waiting to be framed.

[nyc gal]

you guys, the image on art4now isnt even full sized--I had the pleasure of seeing the Jazzfest poster (by accident) in full and it's MORE THAN WONDERFUL.
Fracis Pavy is a remarkable artist from LAfayette, LA, who is known for his use of color, imagery and graphic beauty.
Believe me, you'll flip when you see it in person

[butterfly]

That's the Congo piece I saw but without the words. I love it! That's the one for me!

[Festvet]

I purchased a vintage JF poster that was "never removed from its tube." when I opened it and unrolled the poster most of the ink cracked and popped right off. Fortunately the seller had others and when he opened them the same thing happened and I got a prompt refund.

Thanks Festvet... damn shame I live in the highest humidity area in Oz (for a few months of the year). Gotta rethink this 'cos it won't fit in the wine fridge!

Would it be better to get it framed and store it that way?

[lsusteve15]

The best way to store any piece of art is flat, especially when it is rolled up in a tube that can yellow the poster over time due to the acid in the cardboard. Unrolling it will also lessen the chance of any small bends in the poster becoming larger.
I suggest that you store the poster flat between two acid free foam boards which you can purchase at any frame shop. Make sure it is acid free. This is the best alternative to framing in my opinion.

When you frame any valuable piece of art, make sure you request all acid free materials so the print will not yellow over time.
Hope this helps.

[Rossvegas]

Well, it's just my personal opinion based on a first glance, but...

I think the Congo Square poster looks fantastic, but IMHO the official one is just awful! It looks like a cartoon, and not up to the standards of the other posters on my walls. Besides, I'm still not sold on the Killer's poster worthiness...

Just my two cents!

[kikimo]

Can you purchase the posters on line now or before the fest? Or am I stuck waiting in a 3 hour line??

Thanks for the info lsusteve...i've been thinking I should do something with my '99 fess and '01 louis armstrong posters instead of keeping them in their tubes...i'm going to look into the acid free foam boards!

[Michelino]

The Congo for sure, but I also like the JLL poster more than I expected to.

But I have no wallspace.

Me too. Actually ran out years ago. We came up with sort of a solution. Devote a couple walls to a rotating exhibtion! Every couple months, swap out a couple of the ones on display. Of course, you need a good place to store everything not on display.

[Mojo Rises]

Why don't you sell me the '01 poster?!? Say $65, plus shipping...sound fair?

[Mojo Rises]

While I love the Killer I am not a fan of that poster. It's not up to snuf w/ the other Jazz Fest poster hanging around my house. Plus, I had a hard enough time getting w/ wife to approve the addition of Fats. Its a good lookin poster so she allowed it. No way the Killer gets in.

I plan to start rotating pieces as I have a finished area in my basement I use for overflow. I have about (50) pieces waiting to be framed.I have a very large wall dedicated just to New Orleans posters (primarily JazzFest), and it's been full for years and has spread to adjacent walls. I now have an apartment in Boston (split with the ex) and a corporate apartment in NY, both of which are full of JazzFest posters. Next up are my Boston and NY offices. I have no idea what I'll do after that.

This is the best alternative to framing in my opinion.Although I agree that storing the posters flat is best, Art4Now does a great job of protecting the posters when they roll them for the tubes, covering the poster with what I assume is acid-free paper before rolling it. When I recently unrolled several years of posters to have them framed, they all were in mint condition.

On line orders are not actually delivered until well after the fest, but this is the way I've always done it and never have had a problem. I just can't see waiting in that line and then having to schlep the posters around, although many here report that they buy them at the Fest and immediate ship them out using the shipping services available at the Fairgrounds. But for me, it still seems that a few clicks on the keyboard is far easier than any other option.

[jazzfestchic]

Both posters are AWESOME!!! I have no wall space but will buy both. I am a junkie!!!

Happy Jazz Fest!!!

[Amy Winette]

I really like them both! Right now I am thinking buy one of each for our house, and a congo to have signed by Tuba Phil for the raffle :)

[Goose]

Why don't you sell me the '01 poster?!? Say $65, plus shipping...sound fair?

Hi Mojo...not sure if you were referring to my above post about not knowing what to do with my '99 and '01 posters? If so, I just can't part with my Louis A. poster...it's my fave! I've been wanting to get it framed for a long time and hang it but we have a small place with little wall space so for the time being it needs to stay in it's tube (or between acid free foam)...

[Calypsogirl]

The Congo for sure, but I also like the JLL poster more than I expected to.

But I have no wallspace.

I'm gonna need a bigger house.
Don'tcha hate when that happens, Swag??!!

[Mojo Rises]

Goose - I was just Kiddin. That '01 is the best! I see that thing in NO shops for $1000. I see one on ebay every now and then and they usually go for at least $800. I got one on my wall...

[Blitzzzzz]

I guess this just isn't my year for posters, which will give me a chance to go back and pick up a few of the vintage ones I missed.
I agree with Ross, but I'm not sold on the Congo Square one either, though I love Tuba Phil, Rebirth and pretty much all things tuba except my own lousy attempt at playing one. They just look too cartoonish to me. Maybe when they get the finished product it will look better, but I'm not holding my breath!
I guess that's one more poster for someone who really loves it!:cool:

[Rossvegas]

Blitzz, I really like the colours (and the content) of the Tuba Phil Congo Square poster. It doesn't have the text on it yet, but if you look at the colours of the sky mixed with the gold of the tuba, I think it would just pop right off the wall!

As for JLL, I haven't changed my opinion. While I'm sure the artist is excellent and the colours on the final version might be nice, I just don't feel it's in the same league as the Michaelopolis ones of late....

[PaulC]

Not really sold on either one,.. but have a beef with the better half as I tried in vain to convince her to buy an original piece from Terrance Osborne (the Congo artist) three years back,.. for much, much (did I say much?) less than he currently asks for them.....

He is in the loop now.... the dude is headin' towards easy street....

[Rossvegas]

Paul, I'll sell you one of my drawings for cheap right now...couple hundred bucks max. In a few years, your wife can be mad at you and you'll both be even!

Thanks. Think I'll get it framed,

[mdfest]

Ive got so many of these posters waiting to be framed- about 20- that im seriously considering buying a mat cutter and doing them myself. Initial investment of 400-500, and you will be able to mat and frame anything. Of course, its taken me 2 years to finish my deck, so its probably a really bad idea.

[Rossvegas]

I always maintain a "one year max" strategy when it comes to framing the posters. Very simply, I make sure that I frame LAST year's fest poster before THIS year's fest rolls around!

Personally, I wouldn't recommend keeping them in the tubes for too long. The paper tends to dry out and the ink can flake off in chunks - not pretty! Whatever you do, make sure you take the poster out of the tube and inspect it carefully before putting away because there just might be a flaw in it. (Rare, but possible.) If you don't discover it until 3 years later, there's not much chance that Art4Now is going to make good on a replacement!

[larrybawlmer]

Finally got Fats on the wall and It looks good. The Jerry Lee sure doesn't hit me and I'm a piano player who was known to go into JLL histronics when bangin' the 88. Oh well. Congo looks pretty cool, may go for it. Dunn,mAybe I'll lay off a year, as i've been selective all along. 94 Peter Max (left half),99 Longhair,'02 Wynton,''05 Congo Gatemouth, and '06 Fats. Wife won't allow andy more upstairs so they'll have to be knockouts I guess.

800 and 1,000?!?!? Wow! Well, I guess that doesn't surprise me. I'm seriously thinking now I need to get it framed and up on a wall in my place. I'll have to revisit that subject with my other half...i'm sure we can find someplace to put it!

[Mojo Rises]

It's a beauty!

I was searching for other jazz fest posters and I found this website.

Not sure what I think of the posters this year. I'll probably buy both and may hang the Congo as I'm not completely sold on the JLL yet.

Festlover,
I would do some checking around before buying anything from NOJazzfestART.com. They do seem to have a pretty good stock, but those discounted prices are still on the high side of reality. I suppose it all depends on your cash position and your urgency, but I've never had a problem finding something they had for less, somewhere else. E-bay is a good bet, and for recent offerings, you can often find them for less in the galleries in New Orleans or their websites.:cool:

[festlover07]

Yeah, they have a nice selection and I have called a few galleries in Nawlins and no one has the Gatemouth Congo. Also, I asked about the 2006 Fats and it is selling for $500 and that's for the unsigned!! That's unreal. Glad I bought a few!

[Blitzzzzz]

If you are looking for past year Fest posters there is currently a large selection on E-bay with auction closes from 1 to 4 days out!:cool:

[rosetree]

For those of y'all lovin' the Tuba Phil poster....here's the scoop from today's T/P;)

Art4Now has a countdown on their home page: 2 days 14 hrs......

[rmkcheez]

How quickly do the posters typically sell out? Anybody know what the quantity of the print runs this year?

[hogan20a]

Posters sold out VERY quickly last year at the Fest. They were basically all gone by Friday, with a few hundred left for Saturday. People like me were unable to get a poster :mad:

[Amy Winette]

Last year was an anomoly though bc the Fats poster was ridiculously popular, I've never heard of them selling out otherwise.

Good news is we'll have another Fats poster in this year's raffle :)

[Blitzzzzz]

I believe there have been instances in the past where posters have sold out before the end of the Fest. It's unlikely that it will happen this year.
Last year, they bumped up the print run to something like 12,500. I wouldn't expect them to do that this year. Maybe it's just my prejudice, but I don't see this poster selling out.:cool:

[Amy Winette]

I don't think so either Blitzzz.

[Jada]

I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but the new Bayou wear clothing line for '07 is called Fleur de Jazz. I can't wait to see what it looks like.

Definitely sold out in 1996 (Pete Fountain) and 2001 (Louis Armstrong) among others. 2001 I think sold out before second weekend.

[swag]

The online sales are usually not cut off until early April, so it's not like you gotta order yours in the first hour they go onsale.

At the Fest, I'd say the numbered (cheapest) prints sell out more often than not. Sometimes first day, sometimes last day. Sometimes not at all. It's pretty hard to predict.

[Goose]

Just received an email from Art4Now...looks like posters will be available next week! :)

**********************************


The launch of the new A4N website has been pushed back by a week until
February 21st. Sorry for the delay, but we want it fully tested before
we go live. Rest assured, nobody is getting ahead of you in ordering
the 2007 Jazz Fest Poster by Francis X. Pavy featuring Jerry Lee Lewis,
or the 2007 Congo Square Poster by Terrance Osborne featuring Philip
Frazier of the ReBirth Brass Band. As of now, we feel really comfortable
with our February 21st launch date. Because you are special and took
the time to sign up for our email alert, if we go live before then,
we’ll send you, exclusively, a short email with a direct link to our new
and improved site.

Our delay has a silver lining for those of you interested in the '06
Congo Square Artist-Signed and Artist & Performer Signed editions: When
we have inventory of prior editions we normally revise their prices to
reflect the collector's market when we post the new year's images. Our
delay in posting the new work means you can still buy these two editions
at original publication prices - but only until the last one is sold or
next week, which ever comes first.

All the best,

art4now inc

The #'d edition always sells out prior to festival end (exc. 83, 84, 88, 04 & 05 and the print run has been 12,500 since '81. I think both of this years posters will be gone by sat 1st weekend. They will most likely pre-sell 3-4k online before festival itself.

[festlover07]

Since 1995, the print run has been 10,000 for the numbered, except for 2006 when they bumped it up to 12,500 due to the overwhelming demand. I think the Congo poster (numbered) will sell out before the JF poster (numbered).
I hope this new website is completely overhauled because the current one really stinks. Also hope we can get an order number when we place an order.
I'm not surprised at all at this delay. They are never on top of their game over there.

[rmkcheez]

For the #'d editions, does the time of purchase coorelate at all with the print number (i.e. if you order a print on-line on the date they go on sale, will you get a lower print number than if you waited and purchased one at a later date)?

[where yat brah]

Will the value of my last year's signed poster by Fats and the artist be diminished 10 years from now because Fats didn't play??

[festlover07]

Time of order normally does not mean you will get a low number. In fact, I almost always order my posters in the first week and I have yet to get a low number (below 1,000). I don't care about the number personally, but that's been my experience. I also think there is a statement on the art4now website that covers this topic.

The 2006 poster will probably go up in value every year. I don't think it matters one bit that Fats didn't play. That poster will sell for $1k in 2-3 years if not earlier.

[NeenAtlanta]

Wow, Bry, I didn't know (remember?) that! I had an opposite experience with them. My 2002 poster came with the tube crushed & the poster inside cracked with the paint peeling. The lady I spoke to was real nice, gave me name & said to call her back if I didn't get a replacement in 10 days. I did & didn't have to send the damaged one back.
That sux about your poster, and it was Gate too. :(

Yeah, they acted like they didn't want my money. Promised to call me back several times (never did), I left messages that were never answered, senr emails that werte never answered, talked to everyone I was told to talk to, still no poster. after a year of periodically contacting them, figured it was just not meant to be. The last time we spoke, I complained that the double signed version I wanted had gone up in price and would they make me pay that. They said don't worry, you'll get it at the original price. Last time I ever heard from them.

[McGregor]

so on the art4now site it lists midnight as the time the posters go onsale, is that correct?

[chrisjoseph]

Bry, can I email festydave to see if he can help?

[Amyloves...]

Bryan....the Art4Now place is very near my office. I could go over there for you and try to sort it out in person. If so it might be better to do it pretty soon before they get all stupid crazy with the new ones. Let me know. I don't want to do that if you'd rather let it go.

[mkraus]

Well, I try to get on now and the site doesn't seem to be up. I think we're moving backwards.

[festlover07]

So which poster to y'all like the best this year? I personally like the Congo better, but I'll probably buy both b/c I always buy the JF even if I don't have any plans on hanging it. I think the Congo will sell out before the JF this year.

I want the CS poster, but I'm not sure which one. There is no desciption of each poster or how many in each group. Do you think that the poster labeled special will be signed by Terrance Osborne and Tuba Phil? The price is $329. That is plenty more than the last CS poster with the same deal, I think. Does anyone see any descriptions of each poster?

That worked for me. Thanks!

I LIKE the new Fluer de lis pattern!

I had exactly the same problem Bruce.

[KeyWest Bruce]

I tried to submit it again, and the same thing.......BUT I checked my e-mail, and I got confirmation of BOTH the orders, sooo, I guess it took. But now, I had to contact Art4Now by e-mail and left a message by phone to cancel one of the orders, so I'm not charged twice. Their phone message says the site opens at midnight New Orleans time, which is an hour away. So, in my excitement, it might cause a little hassle...but Amy and anyone else who gets that error message...check your e-mail because it probably went through!

CS is awesome! Bigeasy, I think the special is the double signed one, and YYR it is way high!

Ohio,

I bit the bullet and went for the special. I'm justifying the expense by not getting Pavy's. I'm hoping for a little lagniappe from Osborne. Maybe a special pencil drawing in the margin or something. Has anyone ever gotten the special CS poster? If so, Did it have anything other than the sigs at the bottom?

Buying my poster on the first day of sale makes me feel like I am that much closer to the Fest.

I just got my Congo Square poster!!!

Just to let you fellow Firefox users out there know . . . the site won't work correctly in Firefox, you'll have to slum and use IE to order you Art4Now goods online (grrrrrr).

Same here. Uh, anybody need a poster? It seems I freaking ordered FOUR. Not a great way to start my day. I think I'm being tested on my attempt at Lenten cursing reduction.

Thanks for letting me know Bruce.

Amy, I called Art4Now first thing this morning....the local number, not the toll-free number, and was able to speak to someone with no problem. She was aware of my being double-charged, as I'd left a voice mail and e-mail from last night. I followed up later in the day, and they deleted the second charge right then and there. Very pleasant people that I spoke with. I didn't think I'd be able to get through as they must've been so busy. I'm glad that's taken care of. I went for both JF and Congo Square posters because I didn't want any regrets if I decided on one and then wished I had the other. Can't go wrong ordering these great posters, which of course will only go up in value.

[Amyloves...]

Well, I called the 800 number once and the local number once and got the machine both times. I left a detailed msg once but didn't get a return call. I'll check the Visa status again (as of today I was charged for two but hey that's better than 4) I'll try again in the morning. Then I'll go there in person tomorrow at lunch if I need to. I can check on Bry's problem at the same time.

Thanks for letting me know Bruce...makes me feel better!

some people feel technology is the anti-christ. they may have a point.

to err is human - to really screw things up requires a computer.

[Rossvegas]

Amy, if you go to Art4Now, ask for Bea Shipp. She hooked me up properly last year after a series of screw ups...she's good people.

got an email from Osborne Gallery saying 100 special edition will be avail. I think the price is $750. They won't be avail via art-4-now.

You're more than welcome, LC and fellow Firefoxer!!! I don't know why, oh why so many web designers still insist on only configuring for I.E. - when the Fox is SO much better and more secure . . .

Sigh.

Well, at least you got your CS poster, cher!!!

The descriptions, size and number of prints are at the bottom of the write up, under Editions. $329 is the double-signed poster. I think last year's poster signed by just the artist was $200+ and the triple signed (Thomas, Boudreaux and Michael Smith was about $300+ if memory serves. Nothing gets less expensive with Jazz Fest, count on that!
The special editions sound interesting, but extremely expensive like the remarques and C-marques. Tempting, if they are bigger by a serious amount. :cool:

[Lostcajun]

Yes, thanks Zydekitten, I was really stumped until I read your post.

[vtwaters]

Wasn't Frazier killed severall weeks ago? Were the CS posters signed before his death?

Tuba Phil is alive and well!

I'm sorry, wrong brass band. It was Dick Shavers of the Hot 8.
