Magazine advert draft

Here is the first draft of my magazine advert. I took into consideration the conventions of Indie/rock magazine adverts and this is what I came up with. To create the ad, I first edited the band image in photoshop by decreasing the saturation and using the curves tool to darken the edges a bit. I also resized the image so it would fit onto about half of an A4 sheet. I then added the text and found a HMV logo to make the advert look legitimate.  

Next up i'm going to get feedback from a selection of people to get some general opinions and see if i need to change anything to improve it.
