Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
This week’s poster was designed by Emil Rapstine, lead singer of The Angelus and one of the musicians on this bill, which also includes Will Johnson and Micah P. Hinson.
As you can see, it’s a symmetrical, fairly simple design. Music editor Pete Freedman remarked that it looks like it belongs on a beer can. I can see that, though it looks more like a cigarette package to me. Both of us intended the comparisons as compliments, in case you were wondering. Cheap suds and smokes fit right in at The Double-Wide. -Jesse Hughey
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
