Here is another old band poster from the vault. I was doing these for a friend of mine who was a freelance band promoter. I made posters for several shows back then. I'ts fun to look at them and think back about those times.

I was recently doing some cleaning in my studio and came across a stash of old band posters that I made during college. This one is for the band Calico Soul which I co-founded with my room-mate. This brings back a lot of fun memories for me. Just good stuff.
