Look closely at this poster. (OK, it's tiny, but you can find a link after the jump.) It's going viral on Buzzfeed right now, but that's not the interesting part. Check out the venue names. Looks like someone is based out of Kansas City, doesn't it?

Who's the mastermind behind this clever picture that's going viral? Speak up!

Grant Snider, KCMO
Would be nice if BuzzFeed would give him some credit instead of just ripping him off...

Not sure I'd call myself a mastermind - but I drew it. It's partly based on my fond days as a concert reviewer for...The Wayward Blog (2008-2009ish). More stuff here:

That's a comic by Grant Snider, UMKC Dental Student and KC Star cartoonist. (He also happens to be my twin brother) He has this one and many, many more (since his days at KU's Daily Kansan) at http://www.thoughtballoonheliu... I just hope he's not making fun of my band.
