tpc3 Print Series - Print #3 By Dan Black (Landland) Revealed!

The Mockingbird Foundation is excited to reveal here the third print in our soon-to-be-released print series. Scroll down to see it in all its glory...

Repeating from yesterday: The Mockingbird Foundation is excited to announce the upcoming release of a new, 8-piece art print series commissioned for our upcoming book, The Phish Companion 3rd Edition (TPC3). These gorgeous hand-crafted art prints, each with an edition size of 420, will go on sale via the Bottleneck Gallery website on Thursday, August 6th. Full, matching-number sets of eight prints will go on sale at 12:00 noon ET, and will be priced at $400. Individual prints, priced at $50 each, will go on sale at 1pm ET. 

Mockingbird will also be participating in the PhanArt-produced A World Café Live One art show on August 12th in Philadelphia, where we will debut the TPC3 art print series. The Foundation will have both full sets and individual prints available for purchase, as well as an exclusive rainbow foil variant of AJ Masthay's latest masterpiece (only available at the show). 

The Phish Companion by The Mockingbird Foundation is the definitive guide to the band and its music. First published in 2000, the all-new Third Edition is being self-published by the Foundation, with all proceeds going to charity – youth music education. The full-color TPC3 is chronologically organized, will be complete through the end of Phish’s summer 2015 tour, and will go to print shortly thereafter. The Mockingbird Foundation has commissioned eight top rock artists to interpret and illustrate each of eight eras of the band’s career, each of which will be presented as a two-page spread in TPC3 and as a limited-edition (420 signed and numbered copies) art print.

We will be revealing one of the prints here on Phish.net each day leading up to the onsale. Here is number three!

Print #3: TPC3 - Phish 1.2, 1993-1995
Artist: Dan Black, Landland

Dan, along with his creative partner Jessica Seamans, run Landland – a creative studio based out of the Midwest. Landland is well known around the Phish crowd, having created almost ten band-related gig posters and the album art for the Ventura boxed set, and we at Mockingbird are honored that both Dan and Jessica have each created a piece for TPC3. For his piece, Dan has provided us with a glimpse into the Phish Habitrail, and some of the iconic scenes around a band climbing to new peaks of commercial and creative success.

Check back tomorrow to see the next print in the series! 
Prints #1 and #2 are revealed here.

jaredprox Not to be a Ned Nitpicky, but the hotdog didn't make an appearance until 1996. Maybe it's foreshadowing?

MarcoEsc @jaredprox, you spooked me for a moment, as I didn't personally make it to a Phish NYE gig until Big Cypress, but my faded memories and trusted Phish.net confirm that the hot dog was the stunt at NYE 94-95. (Personally I was seeing Santana that night at the Oakland Coliseum, wishing it was the Grateful Dead and I was at Phish.) But unless we all did the timewarp again, I think Ned Nitpicky is mistaken. (95-96 was the time factory)

Ned Nitpicky is mistaken. Rest in peace, Ned. Ha---my car broke down in Lincoln Tunnel after 12/30/94 and I didn't make it to Boston. I like to pretend that NYE never happened.

NYE 1996 (12/31/96) was at the new Fleet Center in Boston. Something like 70,000 balloons were dropped at NYE. The gag, if you call it that, was the number of balloons (it was visual and auditory insanity, listen to the DWD that followed Auld Lang Syne, I think it was DWD), and a gospel choir that sang Bohemian Rhapsody with Phish, and encored with a fantastic Amazing Grace!

No Hot Dog. That was 12/31/1994. It was a Tropical Hot Dog Night!
