    Other than the complete untruth of that statement, the brown border makes it too large and ruins the entire thing.
    SP is the best band ever, sorry.

    Whatever that big solid background colour is, it is ugly, kill it.

    The big pointy one, but seriously, use fill or something, or crop, whatever, just make it go away.

    The statement.

    Just kidding, try putting a border on it.

    Looks good to me.

    I'd suggest removing the gradient from the text (make it a solid colour). Maybe make the dimensions a more typical sig size like 400 x 120ish (not as tall). These aren't really critical things though.
