Band posters

I need to put together a new poster for my band.

Care to post examples of your band poster so I can get I inspiration?

I haven't made a poster for a band for over 20 years, and wouldn't want to share the crap I made back then, but you can find a lot of great ideas to borrow/steal here: https://www.classicposters.com/performer/mc5/

Cool site but they're prolly a little aged now.

Ask Bing AI for ideas. It's great at this sort of thing. As long as you don't want it to spell the words correctly!

A lot of these are really cool, and I would say have aged very well because I know that’s still the style that’s incredibly popular with metal band posters. 

Most of the text is borderline illegible and there’s often way too much squashed on the page, but it’s a very cool look.

I guess it depends on what the purpose of the poster actually is. (Not a daft question - is it to inform, establish a brand, establish a presence, etc...). Here's what my lot are using for a small gig next week. Simple - just like us, TBH... :-)

Some of these templates are ok..

I’ve got the app on my iPad and do my band’s social media stuff on it.

Keep it simple..

Band Logo/Name.... inset pics... and type of music/songs... and space for venue to write (if applicable)
