Yeah, because calling a band "gay" is totally cool and not degrading to the LGBT community.

I cleaned out my closet and found about 10 SP posters in pristine condition...don't know what I should do with them.

Suggestions?

Feed them to the homeless.

I'm homeless. Taking free SP posters!

In all sincerity if you're not planning on benefitting from them in some way(i.e. hanging them up, selling them, exchanging them for something, etc) I would recommend having some sort of contest on this website to give them away.

Cut them up, make 10 collages and then sell them at a gallery for lots of money. Or like me roll them up and pop them in a storage tube, which you will probably forget about for another 10 years, by which time you decide to leave them for your grandkids because SP get bigger than the beetles in 2018

Priest was incredible. It's amazing what Halford can do in his old age. They NAILED Painkiller!

Oh yeah, totally.

Taurean-that would be a good idea, except I noticed that some of them have writing on the back. The ones from The Fillmore residencies, I wrote the date on the back of the poster (don't know why). One of them I hung up in my room-it's the promotional poster for the Greatest Hits album.

Maybe I'll sell them in 10 years to pay off my student loans.

don't cut them. you must never destroy posters, especially pumpkin ones.

i have that same poster up in my room- The Greatest Hits one. i also have a Gish poster on my wall that i like. the rest of my SP poster collection is stored in a bunch of tubes though. there is nothing wrong with storing them until you someday have a place to hang them.

The mod has spoken.

Currently thinking: I'm in the mood for some electronica. Good electronica.

I also hate Thanksgiving.

Electronica eh? ^ Ever tried David Holmes or Air?

Also, why do you hate Thanksgiving?

I've never been a big poster/backstage pass/etc. memorabilia type person. The only t-shirts I own were from concerts I actually attended, and I own 2 posters -- both of which were gifts.

Maybe I should strart getting into that sort of thing.

I can understand hating Thanksgiving. The history of the holiday basically proves out that it's a sham celebration.

Also, on a personal level, I can't stand to hear or watch people eat or drink(including myself). It deeply disgusts me, and Thanksgiving is always this "turn off all tvs, radios, and all other sources of well-produced sound so that we can all be fucking disgusting and watch each other be fucking disgusting."

ugh i hate the sound of eating too. and i hate having to be around my extended family who i never see. i think im gonna spend a lot of tomorrow isolating myself in video games on the plus side, theres lots of yummy leftovers, and christmas is coming!

i collect posters and i use to collect Pumpkins, so i have quite a few things. i like collecting stuff.

and i hate Thanksgiving too, both the family shit and the piggy aspect of it.

and i will PM you some youtube vids for some good elctronica PBD. i just bought a bunch of good stuff on Beatport.

Man, remind me never to invite you party poopers Thanksgiving is da bomb!

And I don't understand holiday-bashing. I mean, sure, history is more complicated than what Hallmark makes it out to be, but if you can't loosen up and indulge in festivities for their own sake, well...I feel kinda bad for you

Don't get me wrong if other people wanna go for it that's cool.... but when my mother's a very well educated history teacher and my fiance's father is a full blooded cherokee indian it's sort of difficult to pretend.

And as for feeling bad for me or anyone else.... i guess all i can say is i grew up in an intensely manipulative passive aggressive household and I left those notions to others long long ago, but have all the fun you wish and rock out with the feeling bad for me or whoever else you wanna. It used to be fun for me too.
