Patti Smith

Poster for a big summer gig. It's Patti Smith in Dublin in June. I wonder if she saw Humble Pie back in the day?

This poster came with very strict guidelines which meant I had to scrap my version. That happens.

Ennio Morricone

Ennio Morricone's show in Dublin this summer. On the left is the quick first draft just to get things going and on the right is the final version that went to print. The sunset in that second one was taken while Leonard Cohen was onstage at IMMA last year. 

Blur

New poster for this summer's one-off by Blur. Maybe later in the year I'll revisit this one with a longer post. 

Aimee Mann (2)

Aimee Mann back in Dublin last year. Here is the colour billboard poster. This was a double bill with Irish musician Sharon Shannon. October 2008 and recession was kicking in, this and a few other gigs got moved around and this show ended up in Tripod.

Reminded of this because Aimee is going to be on The Best Show On WFMU tonight.
