I was browsing some old NME music magazines and i realised some of the advertisements for festivals and bands truly are works of art, they can provide some good ideas for any designer be it for web or print, lots of textures and colours to get some creative inspiration.

Great list, very inspiring! I love the Get Loaded in the Park poster, I think it’s my favorite. Lots of great typography examples here as well. I can’t wait for the second part!
There’s always some nice design inspiration in the least likely places. I remember finding some beautiful Microsoft Zune ads in Wired magazine, and similar such as Fast Company :)
@ Angie - Yea i like that one too, very creative, glad you like them.
@ Eli - I remember the zune ads they were good, yea theres always some nice advertising.
Some of those are really nice, I like the Intel one and the the awesome badges one.
All of them are petty good though, nice post.
