My extremely unprofessional, bodged-together attempt at enhancing a Rockapella: In Concert poster from about 1998. After seeing it in the Folgers ‘Rockin’ Morning’ commercial, I wondered if a .jpg of this was available anywhere online, but my searches turned up nothing. Then last week, I happened upon it, on an archived GeoCities website from 2001... in glorious 218 by 300 pixels.
This first effort consisted of passing the image through some online AI image upscalers (one of which made the guys’ faces look mildly horrifying; results not included here for your benefit) - that’s why the top third of this picture is blurrier than the rest, which I’ll try to find a way around in my next attempt. I also replaced the shapes, lines and text using Illustrator (fonts are all from the Franklin family, so this was not too much hassle).
Just thought I’d share this as it seems to be quite a rare image online, so... enjoy! I can say with some certainty that this is the most high-resolution version of this poster on the internet, as of my writing this.
Source image also included, in case anybody with more expertise than me (read: almost anybody) wants to try their hand at it. Please click for full-size image (best viewed on a computer)!
what is it with round the twist and frogs? Not complaining though

Rockapella promotional video, 1990.
Rockapella performs and advertises songs from their albums Christmas, 2, and Don't Tell Me You Do on the Home Shopping Network, 2000.

Showerthought: If "showing some skin" means taking off clothes, shouldn't "showing some muscle" mean taking off your skin
the wunderpants episode is confusing because bronson's mouse ownership and stealing tony's toothbrush were used as a setup for the frog race, rather than a mouse race being the main plot point
More from the Rockapella X'mas '96 performance. If some of these seem extra choppy, I swear it's just the manic '90s editing style, and not me. (This same video also features hilarious dissolve and spin transitions without a hint of self-awareness. I love it.)

speaking of getting "properly pissed" or similar, is there an improper way to get pissed
