Kyler Sharp Black Sabbath Tacoma Poster Release



Being that I'm not feeling well right now, Kyler can tell you about his sweet Black Sabbath poster.
This is going to happen!!!! I still can't believe it and I did it. This almost didn't happen and Ozzy getting sick this week was only the last of many hurdles I had to jump to get this poster completed and approved… Ozzy getting sick was the straw that almost broke the camel's back! I was on the phone with Ozzy every day since last Saturday making sure he was resting, taking his antibiotics, flushing his sinus with salt water, getting plenty of Vitamin C and resting his voice!

Seriously though, this is surreal to me and I never in my wildest dreams would've thought that I'd get to do a poster for this band. That's right… I got to do a poster for BLACK SABBATH!!!!! Come on now!!!! BLACK SABBATH!!!!!!!!!! One of the most important bands in Rock-N-Roll history!!! They're in the Rock-N-Roll Hall Of Fame and they're THE most important band TO Heavy Metal because they really were the first band widely considered to be Heavy Metal when that term was being thrown around some 47-48
years ago….

Definitely one of my all-time favorite bands EVER!!!! Their importance to Rock-N-Roll cannot be overstated. Their impact and influence is immeasurable…. this is just a fact. I cannot even begin to express how excited I am to have gotten the chance to do this art for this band. Art that almost didn't get done because of two prior rejected designs (Sharon Osbourne rejected my first two designs before approving my third) and having almost no time to beat the deadline to get 450 screen printed posters printed up and to the venue by today!
 It's a MASSIVE poster at 24x36 inches and is a 5-color print with one glow in the dark ink! 400 posters were available at the Tacoma Dome for the show.
Kyler will have his posters on sale Tuesday at 8pm CST at http://kylersharp.com/

  1. Awesome poster and framed memento for me and my 11 yr old son after enjoying the VIP soundcheck experience and 4th row seats. My son even got an Iommi pick. Sweet
