Logo Critique

Hey guys, after a bit of CC if you don't mind.

Been asked to create a logo for a College run traditional music club.

Name: Newry Trad Club

I know, terrible name, and I recoiled in horror when I heard it.

Anyway, this is my favourite that I've done. Opinions?

I've done a logo for the college before and barely received thanks, so this time they're not getting a sniff of it until I receive some sort of payment.

Anyone else and I'd get some sort of confirmation of the job to be done, but this was a phone call late in the day.

Thanks peeps.

Will provide versions with and without the Club to see which they prefer.

Only worry is that they wanted a modern font. I hope they don't see a serif font and think "Oh noes! We said modern!"

Ta PiePlough, will try that tonight.

Here's my 'modern' alternative. Or as modern as I think I should go for a traditional group.

Thanks muchly.

Though, after what I was told today, it seems the hours spent on this was for nothing.

Next time they'll know I won't do freebies anymore.

Said to them today I wanted £50 (Next to nothing) for the design. He said "Oh, they'll probably get someone else to do it then, there's plenty of people."

Charming.

I did one for them before for free when I was starting to put a portfolio together. The training scheme it was for then received massive publicity and a big launch, yet not one bit of recognition or thanks did I receive. So this time they're getting nout unless I get paid. I showed them a quick look at the logo but gave them no files.

Chances that they'll rip off the idea? :rolleyes:
