Too many fonts.

I came across this one today for a show in Worcester, MA.  One of the things I hate about it already is the fact that there's too many fonts in play, and the fonts themselves are lame.  Seriously, raves are not the stuff of the future anymore, so please stop using sci-fi "future" fonts!  Plus, unless you're a local, you have no idea what kind of music is going on, and there's nothing worse than expecting, say, drum 'n' bass, and showing up at a trance show.


Personally, I would have had the pictures smaller and included more information about genres or timeslots.  The way the text is on the bottom, you have to hunt for details as they don't necessarily stand out right away.  I probably would've also placed the date elsewhere, like near the name of the event so at first glance you have a good chunk of info already.  While this flyer isn't as bad as some others I've seen (thank god there is no use of inner/outer glow in evidence), I don't like it...definitely could've been done a lot better.
