I always thought your posters looked good, and the bands your getting are legit as *.
One day I will travel to the land of cows and redneck sheriffs, and get tankard at one of said events. Or metal-related box-socials if you will.

Hahaha yeah you'd better come out. It'd be sweet if I can get tman to come down too, he only lives a few hours away from me. I don't know if he's much into metal though. The 3 Inches of Blood show this Thursday is gonna be sick. It's a big deal for us because we're in a city of only 90,000 people or so, and it's mostly rig pigs and rednecks.

I can't make a tremendous observation given the size and all, but I really like what you do with your black and white sets. With posters, a lot of people think that onlookers will always have a very clear, wide, and upfront view of things, but often this isn't the case. Obviously, that's the idea, given the necessarily busy amount of information on display with a concert piece, but having a thumbnail look as lively as a full-sized print says a lot about your eye for composition.

Yeah, I tried to upload the posters in a larger size, but the restrictions here wouldn't allow me to make them much bigger. As it stands, these are the ones used in the Facebook events. I just copied the image URLs directly from the uploaded Facebook images. I put a lot of work into most of these (admittedly some of them are thrown together due to time restraints). I always find it a challenge to get all the necessary information onto the poster in not only a visible, but also a concise way. Easier said than done with some of the crap we have to deal with.
Ideally, I prefer the black and white ones (the backgrounds are actually original spray paint stencil artwork) over the others. I'm not sure if it's because of the images themselves, or because of the large amount of blank space I can use. I think those ones tend to be the most eye-catching. You see the image first, and then realize "Hey, there's stuff on this picture worth reading!" With the darker images, and the ones with full artwork in the background, the information is usually more prominent and the image is just filler in behind.
