As a special extra bonus, you can see the process of how I made this poster after the jump. It's 300 odd kb, so if you're on a steam powered dialup connection, maybe give it a miss.

Recent gig poster for an indie music night at Dohertys in Wales. Just cause I like monsters with guitars on fire.
Another poster. This one's for a young cat called Travis Vick. He makes really nice tunes, go and have a quick listen on his myspace. AND... I just noticed that I misspelt one of the other acts on the bill. Crap!
This poster is a bit special as it's been all done by hand and then scanned in and done in PhotoShop. I usually do my posters completely in Illustrator, but I'm trying to diversify my skills.
Show details are:

Somebody go along and report back to me with your findings. I will send a big handful of 1" badges with my art on them to anyone (who isn't related in some way to Travis) to the person who goes along and reports back to me on how the show went!
'Bout time I did another poster. Yes, I still do them. You should get me to do one for you. They cheer me up.
This is for Jack's Castle, who is launching their cracking EP Falling. It's at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne, which is one of the best pubs in the universe, so you should go along. You can listen to the EP online on their website, to see if it's your speed. If it is, then shine on you crazy diamond you, and get tickets from the Corner Box Office on 03 9427 9198 or book online at cornerhotel.com
Well, I've taken a few days off posting and I'm back. I've collected up all the gig posters into one PDF. It's high resolution, so that you can print them out yourself at home, or take them and get them printed. I've suggested to my gig poster recipients that printing them on Colour Laser on A3 Heavyweight (200gsm) paper if you can get it will give you a good result. You can print it as large as you like though as the artwork will scale up to whatever size you like.
The artwork, and the writing on this site is released under the Creative Commons, which in this particular case means you are free to copy it, modify/remix it for your own use, as long as you credit me, don't sell it, and anything you do with the art also has to be released into the creative commons. Easy!
Download the PDF! - 2.34mb.
Day 28 of the 28x28 Gig Poster project! Hurrah! I'm rather pleased. This took quite a bit more time and effort than I thought, and I'd like to thank each and every band for requesting their poster, and providing a soundtrack for the month of February for me! I'd also like to thank friends and friends (online or otherwise) for encouraging me in this project - and especially my girlfriend who has been very tolerant of me spending hours every night making each poster.
In the next day or so, I will create a book containing all the posters that you will be able to download for free! Keep an eye out for that in the short-term future. This will be the last poster for me for at least a couple of weeks. After I've had some time off, I might just do another poster. But not for the next few days!
Today's poster is for The Heanies. The Heanies actually didn't have any music online. But they are my best mate's little sister's boyfriend's band, so I bent the rules for them! Get some music online guys! Sheesh!
Day 27 of the 28x28 Gig Poster project. So close. so very close. 1 more to go! Tomorrow at work promises to be absolutely batshit-loco. Worries me a bit because I want to pull out all the stops for poster 28. Stay tuned folks!
Today's poster is for Tsuki, who are the second act so far from Portugal. Cool. The music is experimental, slightly jazzed, with circuit bent clips and beeps with sax and all sorts of business going on. I dig it.
Day 26 of the 28x28 Gig Poster project. In the home straight. Still not feeling fantastic. But the posters must go on.
Today's poster is for The Defenestration Unit, who will be taking the prize for longest band name so far. Gar! That takes longer people! Anyway, TDU do improv jazz craziness. Check out their myspace.
Day 25 of the 28x28 Gig Poster project. Couldn't really get into the groove with today's poster. Feeling a little sick actually. Oh well, the 28x28 juggernaut rolls on regardless. I hate having to work when I'm not feeling well.
Today's poster is for Aqua Groove, who do swing, jazz, rock & r&b tracks. Looks mostly like covers from their website, but I could be (and often am) wrong!
