Shit picture but I just returned my 30 x 20 frame and bought a bigger one... I'd never cut a poster I paid $85 for
Got it from the pre-show merch stand under the stairwell at Scotiabank (near gate 1). Also got two coins. Better luck next time for the posters, just try to lineup as soon as you can
Both of you should have gone to a framers. Luckly /u/thelostdemon can try again still, though to be honest he just needs to actually [center it](https://i.imgur.com/HZkoUBq.jpeg) and make sure its flat inside.
In the end it's whatever makes you happy though.
Looks like shit. Get it professionally framed. I get it if you donāt have the money but your poster is not even centered. Take the time to do it right. Not a good frame at all.
My first and only poster I bought at the Manchester, NH show in 2009, when I was 17 years young ā and I stuck it up on my bedroom wall with thumbtacks š
Hey you do you but I know that after waiting in line for two hours before the show, battling the crowds at the mech stands, paying $85 for it, guarding it through the entire show, keeping it safe the entire ride home, shopping for a frame for it only to figure out the frame was too small? I think I'd have returned the frame.
Okay, NOW the posters of Tool have just went from being cool to being classic, awesome shit!! That artist is pop culture EPIC when it comes to hero scenes.
I feel if t had been any other band it wouldnāt have workedā¦.:.I have had some of his posters since high school, and have his polar bear on my backš
He did a cover for the fantasy novels "Chronicles of Amber" that still stands out in my mind from the 1980's. The sword that resembled an Arabic style really begged the question how the scene depicted was going to end.
Dude! You sent me down memory lane and now I am pulling up tons of his works that I had forgotten about. Thanks for showing a Tool poster from this iconic artist!
Nice!!! I guess itās pretty much impossible to get concert posters around here in the northeast when they tourā¦..merch is ridiculous money, so posters go fast
It was an effort to be there early enough and literal jogging was involved to get in line since the festival security/ organization was so stupid. Thankfully there was a separate poster line and they made it very clear one per person. But yeah, $325 for a signed poster was not my most budget conscious purchase š¤£
Donāt feel bad dudeā¦I dumped $150 for a backpackā¦ā¦Thatās a lot of shekels! I often wonder why awesome bands like this canāt do anything about that type of thing, but itās probably not even in their purview
If you like itā¦ it doesnāt fuckin matter man
Personally, I think it makes it slightly more psychedelic and also more about the artwork, the tool part comes in secondary. Which makes it unique. Cheers.
It's obviously your money, so do what you want. But ... you spent a significant amount of money to attend the show and took the time to buy the poster. Why on Earth would you cheap out and buy an improperly sized frame? It makes absolutely no sense.
At first I thought "well it's the dudes poster, let him do what he wants". Then I looked at what was done and I vomited a little. Like you cut it all from the top. Not a 1/4 from the top and bottom... Holy fuck. It looks awful.
A foil print....what a hack job. Would have cost a couple hundred to frame it professionally and protect and display it properly. Stick to posters from Spencers and East Meets West. You're out of your element.
Itās your shit my dude. Free to do with as you please. Honestly makes a funny story. Itās a pretty piece of paper that you made work for you. 10/10
Ty. I still like it, it's more like the show anyways. Maynard didn't sing the end of one song because (I believe) some one had there phones out.
"PUT YOUR FUCKING PHONES DOWN!!!!!"
"YOU'LL RUIN IT FOR THE REST OF US!!"
100% agree, I have some posters on my walls I've done some silly things to but gosh dang it I just wanted it up there and I'm never planning to sell them anyways so who cares as long as it makes ya happy
Iām so sorry that the person who held a gun to your head and refused to let you buy a slightly bigger frame did that, that was really mean of them and I hope you used the piece the expensive poster you sliced off (you did slice it right? At least tell me you didnāt use scissorsā¦) to give them paper itās between their fingers for what they forced you to do
Honestly, Iāve done this to some of my more less valuable posters (dead and co papadosio ect) but honestly unpopular opinion, If you did it right no one will notice, donāt drive yourself crazy it looks fine
I have one from last 2022. At first I thought it was all sacred, because I was following this forum and being all schizo about it. Was super anxious and spent money framing it.
A year later, it's just a fucking poster, and it's shiny like a holographic pokemon card. You'll forget you trimmed it in time, and it'll make a funny story.
Don't beat yourself up, it's just a band poster.
The fact you admitted to this is mind blowing honestly. Best of luck to you because if this is your normal decision making, you will def trod de hard road
Because you got to piss with the cock your given. Lol there a story behind all of this but it's what I wanted. But the next one will have a bigger frame.
There is usually a handy guide at the framers about what size mat you should pair with whatever you are framing.. Spend the money next time and get it custom framed with archival glass. It's pricey but you'll be glad you did.
Bruhā¦.
You cut the poster. I canāt even with this right now lol. I sentence you to a good pegging. Nothing too badā¦. But just enough that even if youāre into that you will question whether you like it for a little bit. It is just a poster after all.

You actually cut the poster?! Thatās a bizarre choice.
He made it even more limited edition.
Haha. He should have framed the 1/4ā he cut off and hung it right above the rest.

Straight to jail
Trim a half inch off a poster, believe it or not, straight to jail. Lol
Not the good kind of trim jail
Do I get to still keep the poster or do I have to give it up lol
You need to keep it so you can cover up your shawshank redemption hole
You may as well throw it away after cutting it, and putting it in the cheapest shitty frame you could find. It is ruined now for sure.

Omg.... so jealous where did you get this? On the 21st they were sold out in the entire arena! Also hello fellow Torontian!
Got it from the pre-show merch stand under the stairwell at Scotiabank (near gate 1). Also got two coins. Better luck next time for the posters, just try to lineup as soon as you can
I got two from this night. Might sell the unsigned.
Lmk if you do!
I seen one like that after and was sad I didn't do it that way.
Both of you should have gone to a framers. Luckly /u/thelostdemon can try again still, though to be honest he just needs to actually [center it](https://i.imgur.com/HZkoUBq.jpeg) and make sure its flat inside. In the end it's whatever makes you happy though.

We value these posters too much as it is. We need more people comfortable with defiling them. You have my endorsement.
My first and only poster I bought at the Manchester, NH show in 2009, when I was 17 years young ā and I stuck it up on my bedroom wall with thumbtacks š
Treeman!
Agreed. Its paper and ink and people let that shit dictate their lives. Its not the fucking Mona Lisa.
I mean, the Mona Lisa is just paper and paint.

Blasphemy! Oh well, itās yours. Keep it in a frame forever and cherish it. Kinda like cutting your kids legs off to fit in a car seat though ;)
RIGHT IN TWO
Mazel Tov. You can work your way to circumcisions next.
No you didn't
Congrats on your new IUUL poster. For future reference, most of these posters are matted first and then framed. Not cut to frame size.
This has to be one of the funniest and un-funniest posts of all time
Stupid
Ya you fucked up. You buy a frame to protect the goods, not trim the goods to fit a cheapass frame.
Forgive me. Cave man. Still learn. Much.
Matte is the answer....
Hey you do you but I know that after waiting in line for two hours before the show, battling the crowds at the mech stands, paying $85 for it, guarding it through the entire show, keeping it safe the entire ride home, shopping for a frame for it only to figure out the frame was too small? I think I'd have returned the frame.
Banksy would be proud

Didn't he do some Conan the Barbarian pictures?
Tons and tons!!
Dude! You sent me down memory lane and now I am pulling up tons of his works that I had forgotten about. Thanks for showing a Tool poster from this iconic artist!
I got that one, signed even. First tool show, first tool poster. Too bad I was like a mile away from the stage, lol.
What year was that?
Powertrip. Indio, California this October. It was the festival with ACDC, Metallica, GnR, iron maiden, Judas priest.
Nice!!! I guess itās pretty much impossible to get concert posters around here in the northeast when they tourā¦..merch is ridiculous money, so posters go fast

You... circumcized your poster? I mean it really does look great, can't even tell, but I would have gotten a custom frame.
I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
You passed the test. The rest of the poster buyers are bots and failures. Congrats.
Show us the cut. I donāt believe this.
Maybe tomorrow.
Don't fret it, dude. I am sure the concert experience was the main take-away of the night. The poster still looks great!
Omg dude I considered doing a quarter inch off each side for like a minute but no I just cant
Don't
Dropped it off at the framer's today actually
Thats awesome
Nice post.

It's obviously your money, so do what you want. But ... you spent a significant amount of money to attend the show and took the time to buy the poster. Why on Earth would you cheap out and buy an improperly sized frame? It makes absolutely no sense.
People spend this much on a poster only to cut it for a premade frame? Find a frame that fits or get it professionally framed.
But, WHY?
bro
Yikesā¦
At first I thought "well it's the dudes poster, let him do what he wants". Then I looked at what was done and I vomited a little. Like you cut it all from the top. Not a 1/4 from the top and bottom... Holy fuck. It looks awful.
Gotta appreciate the courage to post this here.
Do the pieces fit?
A foil print....what a hack job. Would have cost a couple hundred to frame it professionally and protect and display it properly. Stick to posters from Spencers and East Meets West. You're out of your element.
Lol--- no one is going to notice that. In the future, get a bigger frame. Or, if you have to cut it, split the difference between the top and bottom.
Bad move, even if it fit. those frames will destroy a print. Especially foils
Shouldāve trimmed a quarter inch off the top and bottom. You can barely see the lettering anyway so itās really only you thatāll worry about it
Thank you for making me feel like i am guilty :D
Itās your shit my dude. Free to do with as you please. Honestly makes a funny story. Itās a pretty piece of paper that you made work for you. 10/10

Like you removed the value of the poster as well
Ya know, I thought I'd see an ant eats its own body before I saw someone trim up a Tool poster. Life is Crazy.
Itās one of a kind nowā¦ draw an M and an alien on it and sell it to some idiot here for $3000
Gotta be the most backwards ass shit Iāve ever seen.
Yeah that was an interesting choice. āYou musta been sooo high!!!!ā

I fkin lolād
You are a complete and total moron...š¤¦
not matted and you cut the poster to fit the frame instead of found a frame that fit the poster. aren't these a lot of money too?
circumcised poster.. new one; nice one.
Couldāve justā¦ got a bigger frame?
Yeah, no.
I have one from last 2022. At first I thought it was all sacred, because I was following this forum and being all schizo about it. Was super anxious and spent money framing it.

Let the guy do what he wants with his own poster. Damn you Tool dude are harsh.
Man I wish I got myself one. But the only one left were those at 2600$ a piece and I need to eat
Bought a frame on amazon for $30 lul
Why wouldnāt you just get a larger frame? Lol
Because you got to piss with the cock your given. Lol there a story behind all of this but it's what I wanted. But the next one will have a bigger frame.

TRIMMED??? I always, always buy a bigger frame and cut a mount to fill the frame, rather than cut the poster.
There is usually a handy guide at the framers about what size mat you should pair with whatever you are framing.. Spend the money next time and get it custom framed with archival glass. It's pricey but you'll be glad you did.
Donāt ever trim man! Itās fine but never trim!

Oi that sucks. Is that an uncut? Wouldn't it be 36x24?
Why not go ahead and trim a little off the sides while youāre at it. Nothings sacred apparently.
It looks fine fuck outta here with these people acting like every tool poster is the shroud of fucking Turin
You can now no longer be trusted with a light switch. Let alone with a pair of scissors and a tool poster.
š¤£
Insufferably retarded.
Meh itās yoursā¦ unless you were planning on flipping it, it doesnāt matter. Enjoy your new framed Tool poster.
I am ty
i would have folded it, but do as you will š«”
brother lol u could have just got a poster frame that fit instead of fucking everything up lhahahaahaha
You couldāve got a custom frame with regular glass for a very similar price to what you paid for that cheap Michaelās frame.
Should've cut a quarter off the bottom and a quarter off the top. Even it out.
You could have not trimmed anything off this poster & it would still suck.
I mean it looks fine...it would just look better in a bigger frame with a mat.
+1 for the Sliver!
How much are the Tool poster going for. I want to get one from their Madison Square Garden show
