THIS IS SKA

that's what i like, daddy-o - PACKAGE POSTER deluxe... finally i can experiment with pen and brush and write like 60 times over 10 weird bandnames for this superb and biggest european ska festival! it takes place in ROSSLAU at the wasserburg. GO THERE - it is definitely worth it. i know the promoter - he's one of the guys that brought us the terrific "SUMMER SAFARI"-festival (R.I.P.) - and yep, it was hard work putting all this stuff and selfmade fonts together, ARGH! achtung: TOOTS & the maytals are NOT confirmed yet.... so there might be two other top notch bands instead of em!!!

SALON NOIR de DRESDEN!!!

OH LA LAAAAA... another burlesque event takes place in DRESDEN at the club SCHEUNE - watch out, dresdenians! the show girls are cute, the photos i did get for working out the poster-design ok, but i finally took a vintage pin-up photo and made it look like a pulp magazin. uff, some of the fonts are self-made with a brush...as one can plainly see ;-)

L.E. Jump

leipzig seems to be the new hot spot for swingsters and hep-kittens - once again and finally! every time they come with frsh bands, great DJs and everything in a straight and chique retro-style. i tell you: if you ever near to leipzig, don't miss to pay a visit to the NOELS BALLROOM (i.e. the mccormacks ballroom) - it is defenitely worth it! even more when it is L.E.jump time again... this time mr. stephan wuthe is lecturing about his brandnew book "swing time in germany" - after that record hop galore with original shellack....wohoooo - dig the poster!!!!

OKEEFENOKEE & MONTESAS

may everyone have a great new year!!!!! - here what i got so far: the poster for leipzigs top notch DJ-team (spinning only 45rpm singles - mostly originals) called OKEEFENOKEE and their first gathering at this great club in leipzig... if you're near, be there or be square... same club, different time: MONTESAS, finally once again in LEIPZIG!!!! we can't wait. this time on a bill with an instrumental band and the terrible black knights from romania. check the poster....

ballroom goes BURLESQUE

my first "burlesque"-poster - i tried to give it the look of a 60s nude-magazin. it worked out OK, i guess - of course one can argue about the colors!
