Ok, so for those who have never been to the Gypsy Tea Room (GTR) in Dallas, Tx let me explain a bit. When bands headlines the venue, GTR has a great guy who comes and paints a picture/ad of the show on the side of the building. He paints whatever he feels like (I guess). Most of the paintings he does are pretty cool. There is only room for 5 or so paintings at any one time. Once the show has past, he paints over it with another upcoming show.
Well, he did a painting for the recent headline show that Eisley did. Here's what it looked like.

It looks like a gray version of The Thing from Fantastic 4 holding a rose.

the guy is amazing. they let him listen to a song or two before he designs the bands pictures. he comes up with some amazing paintings.
