HAMMERS!

Right it's late and I can't be arsed typing loads so lets get this done in as little amount of words as possible, you may notice I've not got to a brilliant start I'll shut up.

This gig will be brilliant, Hammers are fucking brilliant and getting to play some idiot noise/drone music on the same gig will be good/stupid, I wasn't asked to do this poster, there is an official one if you wanna go looking for it.

I wanted to do summat happy, there's nothing happier than ADVENTURE TIME! If you haven't seen it you should hunt it down QUICK!! (shhhhhh! it's all on youtube!)

JUST ONE MORE THING

I asked on twitter what people thought I should draw, the best answer was Columbo, by @toria_manifold who runs COLUMBlog, which now makes it to two TV detectives I've draw along side long time favourite Adrian Monk. Anyway it's late but I just wanted to get this up.

AD INFINITUM - I AM 1/10

More skulls, I love drawing skulls, I might never ever draw anything else ever again. Nothing quite says 'I'm miserable get' like a skull does it?! This is the first print in the I AM 1/10 project series, which is me, doing limited edition of 10 (ever!) of a poster only available by The Double Negative's online shop, which is now open, and has some nice shit in it! Once a month I'll try to have a new print up for grabs, hopefully nice people like you reading these words now will buy them, and therefore encourage more...

I've robbed this nice picture of the print off TDN website (i'm sure they won't mind.)

PETE SIMONELLI / INSECT ARK

Hello Death, I would very much like my skull back please. This is the third exhibition of poster art put together by Burneverything, I decided to go well gothic, cause I can. Should be an awesome gig too, and for free, even better.

A PROJECT CALLED 'I AM 1/10'

Hello people who actually visit this bog blog, I'd like to tell you about something I'm doing that I think is exciting, although you are within your rights to think it's crap.

I AM 1/10 is a project I'm doing with soon to be launched news, art, music, internet place The Double Negative, on their fine, fine online shop you will be able to buy a special print of my work, made especially to be sold through them, there will be 10 of each design and that's it, it'll be the only time that print is available in anyway, so instead of thinking one day, you'll have to think, shit! now!

Or atleast that's the hope, we'll see how it goes won't we...

I hate writing about money based shit, it comes out badly, but yes I am trying to make you give me your money.

AS GOD AS MY WITNESS

Here's the front cover to 'As God As My Witness' - the wrestling zine I'm illustrating for Belly Kids which they're describing as "Crammed full of pictures, essays and photographs this zine is inspired by the memories and charisma of professional wrestling", Wrestling is obviously brilliant, don't be a snob. You probably pretend you don't like listening to System of a Down on the sly. Well stop it. Do what you like etc.

Will be out before the end of the year.

FUCK THE FUTURE

I did, it was at some shit gig I was at. Oh lord it was terrible, Coachwhips wouldliketobe's, when did they get so groovy with "the kids"? Who fucking cares. End blog.

FUCK THE SUMMER

Summer time, Shmummer time. I can't wait to get my coat, gloves, hat and scarf back on. This was done for Domestic Etch's Summer issue, It didn't make the cut. I did draw a dog shitting next to a fat burning drunken mans head though, so it shouldn't be any great surprise.

FUCK YOUR HEARING

From now on, more swearing on the internet and in pictures. ....and more volume at all gigs.

MONOBROW - FAREWELL

On the 15th of July, the free-noise collective known as MONOBROW started by me and Pete from Mugstar, will cease to exist, this is of course dead sad, but is also good. You should definately come down to the last ever gig, it might be the best one ever!!! (it also might not, but that's free-noise for yer!)

Gig details:

FOOT VILLAGE
STIG NOISE
FREDDY'S NIGHTMARE
100% FUCK OFF
GROPETOWN
BITCHES
Friday 15th July @ Wolstenholme Creative Space, Liverpool.

This gig will also coincide with the release of the long awaited Monobrow recording 'Poor Battles' on Lancashire and Somerset Records. This will be in the form of a CD / Tshirt combo deal, all the proof you could ever need of attending such a wonderful gig and celebration of all the stupid shit Monobrow have done over the years.

STIG NOISE & DIVORCE'S MAGICAL MISERY TOUR

Stig Noise and Divorce are going on their jollies together in a van to Europe to make peoples ears hurt and their legs ache from dancing. So here's the blank tour poster that will inevitably be used for one gig, out of loads, I hope Stig Noise let me paint the van like that. That'd be amazing!!

DAMO SUZUKI

Damo Suzuki of CAN is coming. CAN are fucking brilliant.
The poster relates to a tale of terrible hill / wheelchair / bins based drama. It was pretty funny though.

NATHAN BELL

Here's another animally poster, for Nathan Bell, who on his last visit to Liverpool got jibbed off at the border and sent back to America, what a load of shite. Best of luck this time Mr Bell. Also appearing Ex-Easter Island Head who are brilliant and the folk/drone band I'm in Trouble with Books - possibly with an additional set of arms letting rip on the arrldd violin. We shall see.

CHARLES HAYWARD

POSTER WITH A SLOTH ON IT! :D

ACTION BEAT - APRIL TOUR

I got an email from my mate, a screenshot from facebook , Action Beat requesting a tour poster with a free LP for the best one so here is mine. I hope I win!

BILGE PUMP & THE LEFT HAND
