VEGOOSE 2007

This show has become a highlight of the year for me and hopefully they can pull it off again next year. It was great to see so many good friends out in the desert. If you missed it you can see what it was all about at http://www.vegoose.com.

Jamboree Music Festival

The first Jamboree festival was a lot of fun, we met a lot of great people at the poster show and I ate so many tiger's blood snow cones that I could levitate and read people's minds. (almost)

Flatstock 14 at the Bumbershoot
Music and Arts Festival

Thanks to everybody who braved the big bad Bumbershoot to make it out to see some show posters at Flatstock. Seattle my beloved, I wish you all of the best until again we meet.

Flatstock 13 at the Pitchfork Music Festival

My first time in Chicago and I fell completely in love with the city. Do to the sort of whirlwind nature of the trip I didn't get to see many "touristy" things but I did get to hang out with some of the greatest people I have ever met. I was able to eat some good pizza. I met the most enchanting foul-mouthed waitress. I was able to see much of the beautiful industrial area due to my inability to write myself simple instructions. Chicago packs a lot of meat.

The festival itself was brilliant. I got a chance to see Iron and Wine again as well as The New Pornographers. Yoko Ono was there too. People didn't seem to appreciate her or her gyrations. In fact, I think the only two downsides about the Chicago trip may have been the terrible mental images conjured by Yoko Ono and the fact that I nearly cut my big toe off. I should point out that the two incidents aren't related.

So my summer poster peddling tour continues. I hope to see you all at The Bumbershoot Music and Arts Festival in Seattle in September. Flatstock 14 baby!

Sound in Print is a show that celebrates music poster art and design. Over 50 participants are expected to show approximately 250 limited edition posters that showcase a variety of art and design styles incorporating silkscreen and letterpress techniques.

Visit Todd Gallery at MTSU to see a one of a kind show dedicated to artists & designers creating innovative and interesting images that resonate with the music consuming public.

FLATSTOCK TEN AFTERMATH and Other Stuff

I just wanted to thank everybody for the great time in Seattle. We had an awesome time as always. I would say that Flatstock Ten was the best poster show I have been a part of.

It looks like the big Vegoose show is going to have us back this year for a little exhibition. Head out to Vegas the last weekend in October and check out some great tunes, stop by the booth and say hi.

The Ben Harper poster that many of you have noticed should be on-sale at http://www.benharper.net soon. I will try and keep you updated when I hear anything about it.
