Please send us your Gig Posters!

Check out this photo from the Development Team’s room (also affectionately known as “The Nerd Cave”) in our new office:

Notice anything missing? Yes, all the developers. Also note the lack of excitement on the walls. We’re hoping to get your help with that.

The original suggestion by one of the developers was that we paint the walls black and bring in Morgan’s Dad’s 1980′s DJ Gear, including black lights and disco balls. We decided to “put that idea in the parking lot” for now. Instead, we’re going to try plastering the walls with gig posters from the artists and festivals that use Marcato.

So… here’s the pitch:

PLEASE SEND US YOUR GIG POSTERS!

Here’s our address:

The Nerd Cave – Gig Poster Project
c/o Marcato Digital Solutions
P.O. Box 852, Station A
Sydney, Nova Scotia
Canada B1P 6J1

We don’t use snail mail for much else around here, so if you’re inclined to take the time to send us a note with your gig poster (maybe even an autograph?) we’ll take pictures of what we get and share them here on the Marcato Blog. We might even find a t-shirt or two to reward whoever sends us the coolest poster, so be sure to include your return mailing address (we can’t email a t-shirt… yet).

We’re all looking forward to seeing what comes of this, though I suspect at least one of us is still secretly hoping to get that disco ball installed.

(P.S. Most of the other offices at Marcato HQ are pretty bare too, except for Laird’s – he has a White Stripes/Ashley MacIsaac poster. All that to say if you wind up sending more than one poster, we’ll probably find somewhere else to put it…)
