Our stage banners arrived! We have two, one for each side of the stage!

Those are soooo cool! If you don't mind, how much did they cost?

Really nice! I want one!

The furthur backdrop inspired me to do this one

I designed the banners myself and I worked with a guy I know that works with different vendors and he got me a deal on this....I dont want to out his source or the price, but the specs are 10' x 3', pole pockets on the top and bottom, weatherproof mesh, museum quality printing, uv resistant, double seamed edges. We built them to last a while! They are a sound passing mesh fabric/vinyl that can be put in front of the PA stacks as well!

Those are awesome!

Very cool, that's all I needed to know... some of the bar managers around here make banners regularly, I am impressed with the look. The wall of sound idea is the best. Sound porous fabric hmmm, is there a name for that? I guess that is no big deal I am sure they can figure that out. We have been thinking a huge bed sheet dye and blacklight glowing words.... Either way those are very pro looking. AND they make you look at least 20 years younger and 3 sizes smaller... Amazing!!! I need me some of those!

Here is a shot from our show of the wos banners. We got a lot of compliments on them!

They look awesome.

Just a tip, If you can front light the from the top, they won't look as transparent. Especially if the front lighting is enough to overpower any lighting behind them.

River Rat, thanks....

Actually we hit each one with a spot light at the top near the name...Worked well!
