Gig Poster
Mike Gordon Band Chicago 11 The Half & Half
About this poster
This gig print by The Half & Half for Mike Gordon's 2011 Chicago Metro performance features a striking design with vibrant colors and surreal imagery. The poster has a bright magenta/hot pink background with a textured, slightly distressed appearance.
The focal point is a yellow vintage station wagon or estate car, depicted from a rear three-quarter view. The unique artistic twist is that the back of the car opens up to reveal a tropical beach scene with palm trees silhouetted against a sunset over water. The beach scene appears as if it's contained within or emerging from the back of the vehicle, creating a dreamlike juxtaposition between mundane transportation and an idyllic escape.
At the top of the poster, text indicates "OCTOBER 6, 2011" and "CHICAGO, IL" on the left side, with "THE METRO" on the right side. At the bottom, "MIKE GORDON" is prominently displayed in large, stylized letters, with smaller text beneath listing the accompanying musicians: "WITH SCOTT MURAWSKI, ROBERT WALTER, JOHN KIMOCK, CRAIG MYERS."
The art style combines elements of psychedelic poster art, screen printing techniques, and a neon-bright color palette. The illustration has a textured, slightly grainy quality typical of limited edition screen prints. The dreamy quality of the beach scene emerging from the car creates a visual metaphor that resonates with the concept of escape and duality - perhaps representing how music can transport listeners away from everyday reality.
