We got an email from reader Emily last week saying we should start up a Portland version of the Stranger‘s Poster of the Week column. Emily’s right. We should. So to kick things off, I’ll throw down the Stumptown gauntlet with this excellent poster by local artist Chris Bigalke. From here on out, send your favorites to me at courtney@portlandmercury.com. Make sure they’re for upcoming shows (no posters for that 1996 Afghan Whigs show at La Luna—although that was a sick show, amirite?), and we’ll make this a regular Wednesday feature on Blogtown.

  1. It strikes me that this is what the “Mercury on Design” section could have been partially about, before it was eaten by “Mercury on Absurdly Expensive Clothes To Make You Look Like a Dick.”
