Attention Pearl Jam fans and Flatstock attendees: You need the new, superfancy art book Pearl Jam vs Ames Bros: 13 Years of Tour Posters.

As a teenager, Seattlest loved posters. We plastered Miami Vice stills rock gods, Tiger Beat pages swimsuit models and sports stars on our walls with tacks, tape and that white boogery stuff. Some boys grow up and out of the phase. Others become obsessed with poster art, set up savings accounts for Flatstock, and bitch about those who “flip,”—resell high-demand gig posters—for a steep profit. (We fall somewhere in between.) Artillery Design, a new site from Seattle-based artist extraordinaire Brad Klausen, should satisfy the latter group.

Fans of the "rock'n'roll" genre will presumably enjoy tonight's "Art of Modern Rock" exhibition held in conjunction with the Flatstock poster show series presented by the American Poster Institute. The Seattle Times already scooped Seattlest's team of investigative journalists on the story, but we think the show merits worth mentioning again, in so much as this may turn out to be the only part of the Bumbershoot festival certain members of Seattlest will see this year.
