Subject: Gig Posters

Ok every so often I like to change things up. Usually I do it at the beginning of the year, but I think now is a perfect time. There has been an underground movement for a long time in design and illustration on gig posters. I'd like to run ads in these styles. I think it'll help set Chesbro apart and tap into a local music scene vibe. You don't see anything like this in the trades and its not necessarily hard to do (though, some of it takes a lot of time, some of it is nothing more than cut up stock photos and PS magic)... anywho, this is a style that we can almost any message into. I've attached some examples.
