Primus tour poster artist lineup announcement

The heavies at Primus management asked Zoltron to curate a poster series for the band's first major outing in more than 11 years. The project would entail a numbered run of unique, hand made silkscreen posters, designed by a new artist and printed by a custom silkscreen house for each and every venue on the tour. 20 artists for 21 shows in 30 days...
Zoltron agreed, but naturally he decided to heavily procrastinate until the last possible moment, before drinking 3 red bulls and reaching out to a group of friends, all highly creative and partially insane like himself. He asked them, one by one, if they were interested in doing a Primus poster and it was surprisingly unanimous, other than one anonymous party who told him to "Go eat a bag of dicks.."
Next step was lining up 9 different silkscreen print houses, all spread out from Oakland to Minnesota, and one 19th century hand press, to handle crafting their art into a poster series.
Here's a list of the blokes Zoltron somehow convinced to take part in this mayhem...
Individual posters will be announced the night of each show via Primus' Facebook page.
