X Double Door Chicago Poster

So, getting to make a poster for X was one of those little life checklist items. Fun to do, and amazing to see the band rip through classic gems tonight. Tight as hell and still one of the best bands worth seeing.

Heres the finished posters for the show. One was printed on French paper's Nightshift Blue, a super saturated color. The other version was printed on Tangy Orange. I cant decide which one I like better, so, why decide?

The imagery for the poster was inspired by the lyric for "The Hungry Wolf" off of Under the Big Black Sun. "Welcome to gripping jaws, the author of your death"

Good times.
