Goose Charlotte Concert Print | September 27, 2025 | PNC Music Pavilion | Variant 2

Immerse yourself in the electric energy of a Goose show with this captivating fan art print, "Queen City Hive (Under the Canvas)." Designed to transport you to the vibrant night of September 27, 2025, at the PNC Music Pavilion in Charlotte, NC, this artwork captures the exhilarating anticipation just before the music begins.

At the heart of the design, a magnificent, stylized hornet's nest lantern—architectural and industrial—hangs suspended beneath the Pavilion's intricate trussing. This glowing hive casts a unique honeycomb pattern across the tented roof, a subtle yet powerful homage to Charlotte's "Queen City" nickname. Look closely, and within each hexagonal cell, you'll discover delicate linework etchings celebrating Charlotte's distinct character: a regal crown, the dynamic swirl of whitewater, a graceful dogwood bloom, and a minted gold coin bearing a subtle 'C'.

A lone goose, the iconic symbol of the band, arcs powerfully across a shaft of stage light, leaving a sparkling comet-tail of staccato musical notes that playfully transform into hexagonal starbursts. Below, layered silhouettes of an enthusiastic audience evoke the vast green expanse of the Pavilion lawn, their uplifted hands anticipating the live music experience. The design's striking palette of deep carbon black, ultraviolet violet, and luminous hazard yellow, accented with neon chartreuse and metallic silver, creates a profound sense of depth and kinetic energy.

This unique artwork celebrates Goose's layered symbolism, vibrant live energy, and the distinctive spirit of Charlotte, all harmoniously blended into a design that is both transportive and deeply resonant for any fan.

Note From the Artist:

Step into the electric night of a Goose show with "Queen City Hive (Under the Canvas)," an artwork designed to capture that exhilarating moment just before the first downbeat. My creative journey began by envisioning the PNC Music Pavilion not just as a venue, but as an integral part of the art itself, a grand structure ready to host a sonic experience.

The centerpiece of this print is a colossal, architectural hornet's nest, suspended like a fantastical lantern beneath the Pavilion's trussing. This isn't a literal nest, but a stylized creation woven from the very fabric of a concert stage – truss segments, cable runs, and speaker cones, all glowing with an internal, vibrant light. This glowing hive casts an intricate honeycomb pattern across the tented roof, a subtle nod to Charlotte's "Queen City" nickname and its historical symbolism.

Within each of these honeycomb cells, you’ll discover delicate linework etchings that celebrate Charlotte's unique character: a regal crown silhouette, the dynamic swirl of whitewater, a graceful dogwood bloom, and a minted gold coin bearing a subtle 'C', referencing the city’s rich history. These elements are not simply pasted on but are deeply integrated, becoming a discoverable pattern rather than overt iconography, enriching the piece for those who look closer.

Cutting through a shaft of stage light, the iconic Goose arcs across the scene, a powerful silhouette. As it flies, it leaves a sparkling comet-tail of staccato musical notes that playfully dissolve into hexagonal starbursts – a visual representation of the band's kinetic energy and sound washing over the audience. The layered silhouettes of fans below suggest the vast green expanse of the Pavilion lawn, their uplifted hands anticipating the music, further immersing you in the pre-show atmosphere.

The design’s palette is a striking interplay of deep carbon black and ultraviolet violet shadows, creating a profound sense of depth, contrasted with luminous hazard yellow for the hive's glow and a touch of neon chartreuse for the stingers and title halo. The structural details of the trussing are rendered in cool metallic silver, emphasizing the industrial elegance of the venue. For an added sensory experience, an optional spot UV gloss on the hive gives it a shimmering, almost tangible quality under light, inviting closer inspection.

From the bold, industrial typography of "GOOSE" echoing the truss work, to the subtle micro numerals of the date woven into the texture, every detail is crafted to transport you. This print is a celebration of Goose's layered symbolism, vibrant energy, and the unique spirit of Charlotte, all harmoniously blended into a design that is both transportive and deeply resonant.
