that stage backdrop

I had not previously seen the stage backdrop they had at the Fonda in Los Angeles on 17th. Is this a LA or Fall Tour special or has it had previous outings?

That actually looks really, really good. Never seen it before though.

It's gay! my guess is it was managments idea. they def dont dont seem like the kind of band who would want a big banner. it's always gay when a band has a big banner behind them....that one couldnt get any BIGGER...it is a cool pic though. would have been better as a sticker or t-shirt.

They had the backdrop for the House OF Blues Show in San Diego on 9/16/09

i like it.

Hey well it could've been this:

well, this guy had a problem with the 'banner' at the Fonda, and with a few other things:

'I was further distracted by the atrocious spacing on the “I” in Gaslight Anthem on the banner behind them'

That guy needs a girl and some hobbies, pronto.

Haha true. I don't get what the fuss was with that to be honest.

Brian talks about the banner in this video at around 2:30

That's an interesting intro to the '59 Sound...

Yeah, They didn't have the banner at the portland show. But that banner is really rad! I hope they make some stickers or shirts of that.

But you guys are acting like sideonedummy is the huge corperation, and the ceos or something decided that gaslight anthem needed a banner...... It's sideone.... They are one of the most fair and awesome large labels out there.

it reminds me of the myspace background for Benny's side project. I am sure it is the same artist.

Now you mention it I can see the similarities too. It does look quite like the Sprio Agnew artwork.

that looks really rad. I would buy a tee or hoodie with that image printed on it.

On another note, I too was at this show. I personally love the banner but they did seem to be a bit hesitant about it. I loved how brian started the 59 sound like that to cover up alex's guitar problems... and then tells the crowd why and that he has to be honest... the being honest thing was kind of a trend throughout the show being alluded to several times

he looks an awful lot like Mike Ness in this

What is wrong with the spacing of the I? And if that ruins a show then wow.

They need to cover it for opening bands. Pictures and videos of Murder by Death rocking out with that behind them is kinda... stupid.

in milwaukee it didnt drop until they started = solved.

I shall sleep better at night now
