Posters for the recent Dean plays Galaxie 500 shows

Posted on August 25, 2010 by Andy

James Flames, the artist of these two lovely posters for the recent Dean Wareham plays Galaxie 500 shows in New York and Philadelphia has just posted about how he created them. You can also buy limited edition numbered and signed copies of the posters directly from him.

"The ideas for these came about pretty naturally. For the NYC poster, I actually came up with the title first, and the image just kinda appeared on the page after a quick sketch."

"For the Philly show, I had just finished a sketchbook piece (which I've posted before here), and I thought this would be a great opportunity to bring it to life as a screen print."

Video: Dean Wareham plays Galaxie 500 at The Trocadero in Philadelphia

Posted on August 21, 2010 by Andy

Here are a few bits and peices turning up from Dean & Britta's Galaxie 500 show at The Trocadero in Philadelphia on Friday night.

evolrecinc has some videos – here's Ceremony

Also: Blue Thunder, Tugboat, Strange

The Styrofoam Drone has a nice review with a couple of videos

For starters, Dean Wareham actually did a great job hitting those high notes he did over 20 years ago when they recorded the Galaxie 500 albums. Not only that, but I’m sure his guitar playing (as you would probably expect) has only gotten better over the years

I'll add more as I find them – if you have anything to add leave a comment or email me

The first show (not counting last night's "secret" warm up) of the Dean Wareham plays Galaxie 500 tour – I'll add to this as I find stuff – in the meantime here are a few videos thanks to ciaoluna – enjoy Galaxie 500 songs sung by Dean Wareham accompanied by some of the less tuneful members of the crowd!
