I don't remember ever seeing an officially authorized t-shirt with the acts listed on it. I have had a couple of bootlegs over the years from our own version of lot lizards plying their wares through the infield. I like the look. I would buy one if it was made available.

hehe! Yep, it would be a cool shirt, but kinda lame as a poster.
Agreed if it were in place of the official poster. But IMO it would be cool to offer in addition to it.
And it would be easier to be creative and effective covering up certain parts on poster than it would be on a t-shirt...
It worked but I can still see Bon Jovi.
That's outside my ken on computers. I'd say to try Mich, but I don't think he'd apply his efforts to that cause. Perhaps Ohio? CBH?
PS: Rebirth would fit nicely...

I'm thinking we could each just compile our own list of favorite artists from this year's Fest lineup and have them formed into our own personalized 40th anniversary graphic:
Tony Bennett out; Bobby Lounge in.
Sugarland out; Benjy Davis Project in.
Maze/Frankie Beverly out; Paul Sanchez/Rolling Road Show in.
Common out; Eddie Bo in...

Glad you like it - no you can't cafepress it. It is a piece of copyrighted artwork. Besides that - I made it so I would take it personally if you did.
Also, there is not a chance that this falls into "parody or satire for "fair use" protection" for merchandise.

Thanks Dave. I was just kidding about both cafepress and "fair use," but it is tough to tell in this medium--especially since you don't know me. Sorry. Mea culpa.
I was not kidding that I like it. I think it would look great on the back of a t-shirt. Is it going to be available on any Fest merchandise?

Not only beer drinking, but beer pushing too. That beer you said you wanted to buy me over some music talk, why don't we just go ahead and make it a case now. I really would not want to have to break it to your folks that you are dealing beer to an innocent Irish Catholic from New Orleans. It might not look so good. Is blackmail a sin in the Mormon faith? Because it is a normal occurrence in Catholicism.
Talk to you soon. Cheers.

Antwerp has a feel about it that is hard to describe, but it seems so approachable, so comfortable........
I have spent considerable time in Brussels and Brugge (Van Morrison, Maceo Parker, Radiators) but Antwerp is far and away my favorite place in all of Belgium (of course the 2000+ breweries make it an enjoyable visit as well).
During Fest, I know a place in the Quarter that sells a wide variety of Belgian brews, for a reasonable cost; it is worth checking out, if you want to meet up for a cold one........
