Fliers

Some fliers I did (mostly), for events I have organised/co-organised or played at in the past!


This was one of my the first fliers and the second gig Amida played in Manchester a long long time ago....
Another early Amida gig. The drawing is based on the film 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari', which I absolutely love!


I can't remember who did this flier but it is for a night I used to co-run called 'Fight This' and it may be the first/last time I ever try to run a club night!

The first gig that Amida played with our current line-up and the drawing is of Wawel Castle in Krakow.
Another Amida gig! This one was a disaster as far as I remember. Perhaps the upside-down duck was a bad omen.


The first Jamboree & I really stretched the limits of how illegible a flier can be. A memorable evening, particularly for the balloons & box-headed spoons.
Second Jamboree. Flier by Kyle. Nathaniel played instead of Cooties Attack and felt tip pens took the place of balloons.
I really enjoyed this gig, particularly for the playdoh animal sculptures and giant dog costume.

Unfortunately this one got cancelled as the venue closed down and they forgot to tell us!
More venue problems, eventually moved to Saki Bar and narrowly avoided cancellation.
Another potential disaster was saved due to some microphone sharing/shouting from Hotpants Romance!
Slightly odd afternoon show but lots of fun as I remember, despite the lack of people.
Noise + pop = two of my favourite things.
Mrs Cakehead cancelled, despite having the flier dedicated to them. The first time I'd seen Shrieking Violets/ Jam On Bread though and thankfully not the last. Ended with us all making lots of noise!
Slightly disappointed at the lack of beards but will go down as one of my favourite Jamboree's anyway.
Another classic Jamboree line-up! Flier by Kyle.
A one day event called Strawberry Shortcake which was pretty close to my dream line-up at the time.
In collaboration with Cherryade Records. Not many people but I think it was St Patrick's Day which might explain why.

Fiier by April Preston. Bands played in the kitchen and we built a roof in the garden out of bin bags held down by bags of rocks. There were a few minor injuries but nothing serious.
