Making sure you look good when you play

is also part of MY job

For anyone who doesn't know (where HAVE you been?) aswell as being the drummer in Kingpin and depping for other bands, I'm actually a signmaker.

This means I can make things to make your band look good when you're playing.

Like traditional banners:

more modern 'pull-up' banner systems:

Bass drum logos:

and stickers to go on your flight cases, amps, vans etc etc.

I can also do full branding with digital printing:

or standard vinyl graphics, all to suit your budget:

and lots of other things.

If you're in the market for anything like this, you can PM me on here, or message me on tgreaper@ntlworld.com
or simply give me a bell on 07966 367526.

I'm not going to go into prices - they're just ridiculously cheap for all you lovely La La Land people, and that includes any family and/or friends who might want non music related stuff (like shop signs and pavement boards etc etc)

Do you do those "static" cling type bass drum decals that you can easily remove if, for example, you whore yourself out to other bands regularly and wish to revert to a plain head with all the faff of changing heads etc (I'm idle, thats why I chose the instrument where I get to sit down for the length of the gig......)

# Posted by Alyerpal - 05/04/2011, 21:28 (GMT)

Err - no! They look naff and don't last.

I can, howvever, do paper drum fronts that you can just stick on for 1 gig!

And don't be so bloody lazy....

Alyerpal is the reason people look above and behind us when we play. Which is just as well. The only difference between us and chimps is that we don't fling poo at folk. Yet.......

Just to let other venues know Als banners are not just for bands anyone can have them done to advertise up and coming events in there pubs, we have had them done and they are very eye catching, it works for us, why not have a chat with AL I'm sure you will be impressed

# Posted by Alyerpal - 06/04/2011, 10:41 (GMT)

Only if you can produce a valid bus pass Gary - otherwise you're just like most of us on here!

We have a banner BUT problem is we can never use it because we don't know how to get it up (we think taking the staple gun approach isn't good for the banner or the wall being stapled) do you do stands for banners that are longer in width than height (banner is 4ft h x 8ft w I think)

Cheers :)

# Posted by Alyerpal - 06/04/2011, 13:24 (GMT)

Sorry FYI - I don't do the banner systems for traditional type banners, they are bulky and expensive, but that is exactly why so many people are taking 'pull up' banners off me now; they are self contained and freestanding (even Mr NWB has one!)

Have a look at the Johnny Meerkat and Vuvuzela pics - they are pull ups.

Whole thing folds down into a case about the size of a snooker cue case!
