Since I didn't articulate my problem with the logo in my original post, I'll do so now. I don't think it matches the tone of the show at all. It's very "in your face," where the show is much subtler. The logo is all about the lynching, where the show is about the relationship between Leo and Lucille, and the tragic circumstances that lead to Leo's lynching. I don't feel that the logo represents the show well, and I still think that hitting you over the head with the image of a noose is not in the best of taste.

In the end, of course, it doesn't matter. It's a one night concert that will surely sell out quickly. They could've had a logo that was just the word "Parade" in black Comic Sans text on a plain white background and it wouldn't have kept the ticket-buyers away.
