Band title – The title of their band is right at the top of the poster which is essentially there to capture the audience’s attention and inform them what band this poster is from.

Record label– There is a record label here which presents the tour where the Smashing Pumpkins will play.

Background – The background is colourful and vibrant, displaying the trees and environment. This might have been used to illustrate where they are going to play and perform so it can easily inform the audience about this. However we don’t have an image of the band which might mean that they are sort of bands that aren’t bothered about image portrayal.

Tour dates (information)– These tour dates tell us where the band is playing and it is at the bottom which is the norm when many other posters I have analysed all have the vital information at the bottom of the poster.

Tour (information) – We have vital information about what this poster is informing the audience and so this right at the top of the poster, which easily tells the audience what kind of tour this is.

Tickets – we have information here about the tickets, this not only informs the audience about when it comes out but also is a way to promote their band and music/tour.

Album sale – Right at the bottom we have the date of when the album is out. This might be hard to see but they are using the usual conventions of how a poster promoting their album is laid out.

Record/sponsor– This is the last information which people might not recognise but it is one of the most important information which tells people about who is sponsoring the bans and the tour
