  • In the case of multiple bands, only the headliner should be listed.

Art Prints

The basic EB naming format for Art Prints is: TITLE YEAR ARTIST

Example:

Title

  • The Title should be the exact title of the piece as published, unless it is too lengthy for the input field.
  • If the title is too lengthy, the full title should be entered in the Notes field.
  • Unlike Gigposters, the Title field for an Art Print should contain "the" if it is part of the published title of the piece.

Year

  • The year in the Title field should be the same year entered in the Year field, shortened to the last 2 digits. Do not use an apostrophe to indicate the shortened format.
  • For Art Prints, the year of publication should be used.
  • If the year is unknown, please enter the best approximation and note the year as uncertain in the Notes field.

Artist

  • The Artist in the Title should be entered as the last name of the artist who created the piece.
