April 24th, 2008THE FILLMORE, SF CONCERT POSTER, PRINTED
I can now officially say I am part of music history. I have just finished my first Fillmore, San Francisco concert poster, and it's just the beginning. Bill Graham Presents asked me to design a poster for the Ex Front man of Collective Soul's band, Mike Doughty. Not my kind of music, but my kind of project. He is a poetic singer with a folk sound, and the poster reflects that. Printed on awesome, uncoated paper, I am happy with the results and have acquired 50 posters that I will offer to anybody who wants one. Check the Shop section of this site. You pay for postage, i will send you a free poster!
