Mountain Goats Survivors Choice 2012 West Coast Tour Posters by Robert Wilson IV

The Mountain Goats Survivors Choice 2012 West Coast Tour Concert Poster 1 by Rober Wilson IV

Last weekend The Blot got to meet the talented Robert Wilson IV at Space City Con 2012. I was first introduced to this Dallas artist’s work a few years ago when he designed a tour poster for Adam WarRock, which is still probably my favorite Adam WarRock gig poster. Robert had the two tour posters he designed for the Mountain Goats’ 2012 Survivors Choice West Coast Tour at his booth and I was blown away by both the screen prints’ intricate designs and colors.

Robert explained he was actually introduced to the Mountain Goats on Twitter, where they bonded over their mutual love of DC Comics’ Kamandi. Robert then used Kamandi’s theme of a post-apocalyptic future as inspiration when designing these two prints for the Mountain Goats recent west coast mini tour. Both prints proved so popular, they sold out just a few days into the Mountain Goat’s tour! Now the only way to get your hands on one is through the Nakatomi online store (Tim Doyle’s Nakatomi printed these posters for RW4 and the Mountain Goats).

Each Mountain Goats 2012 West Coast Tour Poster by Robert Wilson IV is an 18”x24” screen print with florescent pink ink, and comes signed and numbered by the artist. Each print has a limited edition run size of just 100 pieces, with only 25 available through Nakatomi. Pick one up here for just $30 while supplies last!
