Advertising.

So as of late I was doing posters and fliers for a number of local and not so local clubs and bands. It was great. I would keep fliers from shows growing up to either tac to my wall or keep in a shoebox, whatever. So I recently did a poster for Michale Graves...my good friends The Belgraves were asked to open. I was very happy for them. Mr. Graves was a replacement for Glenn Danzig of the Misfits. He's doing the whole spooky halloween band thing. blah blah blah. I did a xyrox poster 11x17 and 4 36x48's to hang up. So I deliver the posters a week and a half before the show...the weekend before the show they were never put out on the street. So when the show rolled around I asked the coordinator whats up with the fliers and I was told that all the advertising for the club is now done on myspace or online in general. That is lame as hell. Sorry. but going to a friends house and seeing a flyer on the wall or where ever was way cooler than saying "hey check out these fliers i got, they're all Jpegs, i have them on disc , check'em out dude". Stupid.









I love this stuff. DYI. I have a big ol' stack of these. Every once in a while I will sift through them. They smell awesome. All these are San Antonio/Austin.
