The Ratt Poster is better than this because everyone accepts it for what it is. This poster is having way too much thought put into it. It's some dudes and information. |

well, there are many layers of meaning to be found in an Applebee's ad, if you are inclined to look. issues of class identity abound, for example. yes, an Applebee's ad is a treatise on the aesthetics of the American middle class....i mean, this is the deconstructionist reading. |

this kind of bloodless computer design does reflect our (cheap, ugly) contemporary world better than more tasteful work. if "art" is meant to reflect the state of the culture that produced it, then this is indeed a work of art....but then so is a TGI Fridays commercial. what i mean to say is, this isn't about grabbing a bite - it's about a bite grabbing you. |

good morning. i'm back from my 3 hour commute to work. i work at a corporate software comapny now. i now make more money in a month than i did in a year. so, times are good.
and i still think this is a superior design. a really good poster. effective. attractive. exciting. a success. not artistic, but great advertising. SELLS!!!
but, you don't have to agree (especially with an old corporate whore like me.) the rule book sez, "you can disagree." it's better that way.
go make your little "art." it's cool. MAYBE I'LL BUY SOME. HEH HEH. |

"Jake" is a slang term for good or ok, etc. So, I believe their name has something to do with things "not being ok". Which is pretty fitting really. |

i don't really give a rat's ass about design culture , i just like stuff that's visually engaging + exciting .
if a bunch of dweebs who work in advertising think our work = this , that's there problem.

i always wonder how bands got their names. like one of these guys had a friend named Jake & they got some tacos one day, and the one guy's taco had less taco-meat filling than Jake's, and he whined, "i got less than Jake," and immediately he experienced a revelation -"say, that'd make a pretty swell band name!" |

See, the great thing about a faux-hawk is that it gives you that edgy "youth-culture" rebellious look when you want it, but you still have the option to comb it down and appear to be a respectable employee for the rest of the week.
it's a WIN/WIN!! |

this gigposter clique can be so snobby.
would it interest you to know that a LOT of design culture people really don't see any real difference between most of the work on this sight (including, sadly, even seripop) and this "admat" poater (as you erroneously call it)? it's all crap to design culture people. they dismiss our work as junk.
and here, you guys dismiss this work the same way.
so, the idea that you guys sniff at a poster like this as "bad", i find rather funny in a cute and pathetic sort of way.

ROTATOR : |
I have about 230 admat type posters (ones where the management specifically want a photo or logo(s) used and dictate how are where the said photos or logos are to be positioned) I tend not to post those, for a variety of reasons, but mostly because I don't want pre-dictated design to represent my vision of what I see for the musicians. I do get (some) freelance jobs from my Gigposters® page, and I don't want to represent myself to potential art directors/clients with design work, essentially, they (in my opinion) could do themselves... |
