Lo-fi fnk...


posters are often a great indicator of the quality of a show... although this may not be true for big shows put on by big corporate firms like GEG and the like who ask their "graphic artist" who listens to sevendust and evanescence (because he got into these bands when he got the job at the said firm and they needed someone at the t-shirt stand) to do a poster for bands that he knows nothing about or for which he/she couldn't care less... anyway, so it is true for smaller shows that are usually put on by fans. although blue skies turn black has grown larger and larger in the past few years, and have associated with the bigger sevendust-loving-firms, they've alsomanaged to remain true to their roots and still hire people who love music (all kinds) and who know the bands they should design posters for. and it makes all the difference in the world! sure, you get a biased view from a poster that was made by a fan, but then you start thinking: "this guy/girl went to a lot of trouble to make this amazing poster! and this is is what the band inspired him/her!!! they must be great!"


ok... that's poor reasoning, but whatever... look at that poster!!!!!

But don't you think that if the band is from Sweden, they should have made some kind of IKEA joke?

I think shit eating jokes of the scato-culinary types are more appropriate in the Swedish case.
