The summer of concerts continues and we’ve noticed a tour poster rivalry is beginning to brew between Guns N’ Roses and Metallica. Both legendary bands have been taking their merchandise SERIOUSLY and with a new poster for each stop on their respective tours, collectors are going wild. Some of these posters are super limited (30 only for some) and they sell out before most fans even make it to the front of the merch line but both bands have been putting out incredible work. Let’s take a look at some of our favourites from both tours so far.

Once you’ve decided on your favourite, see HERE to enter for a pair of tickets to the Guns N’ Roses show in Vancouver!

 

Example 1 – Guns N’ Roses: Ottawa

If Game of Thrones, Guns N’ Roses and our Nation’s Capital were mashed-up into one Rock poster this would be it!

Our score:

4 Roses out of 5

 

Example 2 – Metallica: Vancouver

Metallica just rolled through Vancouver and they brought black light posters. Psychedlic man! They also had some sweet Johnny Canuck-style shirts for sale.

Our score:

4 Skulls out of 5

 

Example 3 – Guns N’ Roses: Miami

We love the customization for each city, and Guns N’ Roses doesn’t disappoint with their Miami poster. It’s Miami Vice, GnR style! Crockett & Tubbs look like they’ve spent too much time in the Florida sunshine!

Our score:

5 Roses out of 5

 

Example 4 – Metallica: Edmonton

Tonight’s event poster from Edmonton! #Metallica #WorldWired #MetInEdmonton

A post shared by Metallica (@metallica) on

Perhaps the perfect poster for any metalhead/Oilers fan, this poster combines Edmonton’s favourite athlete with Edmonton’s favourite metal band. This poster has all the details covered, right down to the little Calgary Flames players getting beat down in this heavy metal Battle of Alberta.

Our score:

5 Skulls out of 5

With Guns N’ Roses just around the corner, we wonder what their Vancouver poster will look like? Will it better than Metallica’s mountains meet aliens poster? Will you buy one to put on your wall or to sell on eBay? Let us know and enjoy the show!
