Public Enemy from 2003. I just found this file and it mustn't be the final poster because the ticket price is blank and there's a typo in Professor Grif. Public Enemy posters design themselves really. This was also shortly after Creative Controle changed their name to MJEX, notice the spelling of Expert.

Gangstarr

Just thinking about what to post today when I read this. Guru of Gangstarr is in a coma following a heart attack. Hope he makes it through... This 2 colour billboard poster is from, I think, 2003 when they came back to Ireland for the first time in 10 years. It's a big duotone print, something I'd avoid at all costs these days.

Luke Vibert

No too many posters from 2003 up so far, here's one. It's for Luke Vibert and was promoted by Audiodelic which was Stephen Shannon and Darren from Maximum Joy who promoted the Stereolab gig i posted a while back.

Arab Strap

A billboard poster from 2003. Based on the Arab Strap album from the time. Interesting line up, Bright Eyes opening and then what must have been one of The Idiots' last gigs. Bright Eyes's first Irish gig maybe? Not sure.

Bright Eyes

An old 2 colour billboard poster today. This is for Bright Eyes playing Whelan's in 2003. I think this was his second time in Ireland, supported this time by me ol' mukka Goodtime John.

G-Unit's Lloyd Banks

Talking of getting away with it. Check this out. Poster for G-Unit's Lloyd Banks from 2003 or 2004. Brief, take the Beg For Mercy album cover and put Lloyd's head on 50 Cent and Tony Yayo's bodies. Pretty funny. Anyway the gig went ahead and nobody got shot.

Lee 'Scratch' Perry & The Mad Professor

Another Mad Professor related poster. This time from way back, I'll take a guess at 2003, when he appeared with Lee Perry. I've liked this for a long time. I'm pleased with the drawing of Lee and Clarendon is one of my favourite fonts but I wish I'd have spent more time getting the outlines right!

Def Jux (2)

And here's that follow up poster mentioned in the Def Jux post yesterday. This comes from 2003. In my mind they were more alike.
