Music Food Heat. America's Independence Day Concert in New Orleans. Drink Dance Music. Twelve hours non-stop each day. Bogus Slogan was honored to be the Saturday headliner. Scheduled for a 90 minute show, the greatest crowd of them all demanded and got seven encores - BS was a no-show at their own afterparty - Crawling into the limo, they told the driver to head for the refuge of the Mobile, Alabama Dandford Plantation Bed & Breakfast (A Slogan favorite).
Maelson Telsers of the New Orleans International Music Festival commissioned ZenithPointStudio to create the program poster. He asked for a design that represented the "swirl of colorful sound" that the festival traditionally brought forth. ZPS realized that with so many bands, even a 27" x 40" space would present a challenge to cover all the information for the festival. So the studio PrintWorks got out the small printer.
A background swirl of color, with a delicately painted frame, directs attention on the center panel where the band names are listed. Over 1000 prints were made and widely distributed through out the Louisiana Parishes. However, the inks used for printing were of a lesser grade and most posters which have been exposed to direct sunlight have faded. A mint condition "New Orleans International" will probably cost you $575.00. That was the sale price of the most recent transfer in December 2005.
