Photoshop THE CONCERT!
Total prize pool so far: $24,280 and counting!
Make a poster for a concert with a Photoshop themed band!. The twist? You have to use a tool from Photoshop as the title of theband. (Think of a concert poster with a band that has a Photoshop Themed name. Such as the "healing brushes" etc...) Props for wit and cunning! Use any original artwork you desire. You may use any tools or platform you choose, but you must use Photoshop for at least 50% of the Image editing/design. Photos are acceptable
