Max Creeps - signed options

mysterious punk rock band Max Creeps offers signed options in their shop. Seems like Duff McKagan might be one of their members. Worth a shot maybe…

Interesting, has anyone opened theirs up? Im in no hurry to but it would be funny if there was more to this hidden inside..

As for the signatures, im leaning towards these being signed by 2 separate people.. i still see similarities. But there are also some differences that someone signing both names would have to make a conscious effort to switch up between signatures. The biggest example is how they cross lines. The x in Max is signed starting from the top left.. the "x" separating the initials PC BS is signed starting from the top right.. basically alternating the lines that overlap within the "x".. most people would sign an x the same way even if its not necessarily used as a letter X.. I know for certain I would find it odd writing an X without starting from the top left no matter what its intended use is for..

Wish I could join the fun, but I'm still waiting on my order to ship.

Thanks for all the pics though. I'm leaning towards two persons too. Even if different persons there's the question if the artists signed these themselves, but with these limited numbers you'd expect so.

Did you order the green version? I ended up getting that one as well. Mine hasn't shipped yet either. I also bought the unsigned clear vinyl, although not as limited at 300

Here's the link to the green version if anyone is interested

Here are some handwriting examples from Duff.. I cant find anything at the moment for Kurt. I figure we can start comparing with these.. Jor-El is right though. There is always a possibility these were just signed by a random nobody.. but if that were so, I think for sure the signatures would be from the same hand.

So, the PC BS does match up nice with a lot from the examples I posted. Im far from convinced its Duff though. Id love to see how Duff signs his x's. Ive found 1 example but its inconclusive of where he started it from.. ill do my best to pick away at this, even if it takes weeks. If anyone has handwriting examples from Kurt, or even just his signature, please share

I had a lot of extra time today.. found an autograph from Duff made out to "oscar" which im confident is duffs real signature. I took this example for a quick side by side comparison for the "s" and "c".. they match up well, but its still just 2 letters. Its not even close to a guarantee, but just a comparison to show he cant be ruled out.

There's also this comparison for the S that really matches up well

I need to sleep on this.. there could be a million people out there who may sign 1 letter the same way.. on a side note, im really starting to dig their song "burn it down" its really growing on me. The guitar riff is simple yet catchy.. but is this some weird form of Stockholm syndrome? Lol since I'm being held hostage by how much money and time I have invested in this now... haha. Ill clear my head and come back to this later.

Please post more examples when you receive them

I read a little bit about them and it looks like it's Duff, and Kurt Bloch. They had song writing credits on YouTube on one of the songs. Looking at the music video it looks like them too.
