Blinding flash of the obvious.

I want to get my One Life poster signed, but I just realized what would be 10x more awesome.

I just made [url=http://petethepanda.googlepages.com/manabe_3pwide_5mmdots.pdf]this picture[/url] using [url=http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/]this program[/url]. It takes a picture, blows it up, but instead of being pixelated it makes it into little dots of whatever size (in mm) you want. So that picture I did of Manabe is about 3x3 pages big with 5mm dots. I just cut off the edges, taped it together and put it up. It looks neat up-close and from a few feet away it's a big badass picture, and it's a great way for some on-the-cheap posters. You can also do it in color, though it would burn through ink like no other.

It just hit me that I could do this for each member of the band, and take one of the pages in for each of them to sign, tape it back in with the rest and put it up on the wall. Wouldn't that be badass?

If I bump them down to 2x2 sheets it might be possible to do it in color realistically, too (and probably easier to have space to hang the 4 that way).

So since the show in the city is only a day away, I;'m really starting to focus. Got my camera ready to go...need to find out what to get signedd...
I'm putting WAY too much thought into this but:
What do get signed!? I mean, hte dillemma lies herein...

A shirt would be awesome, but it's kind of impracticle since they sell them at the show and I kind of feel it wouldn't show my deep love as say an old CD would.

But that would in a way 'ruin' a CD sleeve since I'd have to take it out of it's case and it would be sleeveless....

A piece of paper is an option, but a last resort...

My brother thinks he's getting his pickguard signed.

A bandscore is always an option, but I use them and I fear for the safety of the signature.

So what? I'm being pretty nuerotic and stupid over it, but it'll be the first time I meet them (I REALLY HOPE I DO).


If a CD, then which? I was thinknig TYMT since it has all 4 members or something like that. I'd love them to see an OLD CD get signed, but Jun wasn't in them...
Maybe I'll get the 3 to sign and Jun to sign something else...

Anyway, suggestions??

whatever is close to you get it signed.

I am in love with LGTY so Im gonna get them to sign that. I'm debating wether to get them all to sign the face of it or have each sign a different cd.

decisions.

I brought my CD, case and all, in a bubble wrap sleeve in my backpack, with a sweater in there as well, and it made it through the show in perfect condition, I would totally recommend something along those lines, though I was worried the whole time about somebody trying to steal it...

I think I'm going to get TURN BACK signed. I was originally gonna bring my LIVING FIELD album or my Special PML Digest but that's kind of insensitive because of Jun. TURN BACK has self-covers of old songs on it from my favorite pillows era and it still has, Jun on it, so that'd be the perfect choice for me.

I was thinking TYMT.

I'd love an old one like Living Field, but like you said, Jun...

Then I was thinking Nine Miles for Manabe...

Still undecided. :(
