Question
I have been looking all over for a specific poster, the picture of Bradley Nowell, Bud Gaugh, and Eric are dressed up as gangsters. They are holding a tommy gun and a shotgun.I am not even sure if this was ever made into a poster, but if it is where can I find it????
Christina,
The picture you're talking about was taken by John Dunne, allegedly for the Self Titled album cover. As you may know, up until Brad's death, their third album (40 oz, Robbin the Hood, then Self Titled) was to be titled "Killin' It", but with his demise it was no longer a appropriate. There was a poster with Killin' It written on the bottom and Sublime on the top, but there's definitely no official place to find that now. I've never seen the old version for . In fact, I can't find the poster online -- perhaps they aren't allowed to print them because of copyright issues. The only thing I can suggest is emailing the companies directly -- perhaps they have printed them but aren't allowed to sell them. Here's one that is "out of stock".

Expertise
Guarantee: you will receive an answer within 2 days of posting the question -- whether it is a referral to a different expert or a straight answer to your question. I can answer most questions about the band, the significance of the lyrics, the show dates, the unreleased albums and tracks, misinformation, and, above all, I am an expert on their influences and related music. Additionally, if you're looking for that hard to find track or a cheap alternative to the $300 book Crazy Fool: Portrait of a Punk, I might be able to help.
Experience
I have been a huge fan for 16 years, I ran a server which distributed Sublime's live and unreleased music 24/7 for 4 years, I have answered questions about the band daily for a decade on their old website, and I know some of the largest collectors in the world. I created the 5 CD bootleg "Rewind Selector" which documents the influences of Sublime and was the topic of a Spin Magazine interview.
Education/Credentials
I did not study music in college, but I majored in English, so I can write a clear response. I worked as a research assistant in the past, so I have skills in research if I need to figure out an answer.
Past/Present Clients
Sublime fans aren't my clients, but I have distributed swag and rare tracks to all those who want them for years at little cost.
