"I am a world's forgotten boy the one who searches and destroys..."— "Search And Destroy" Iggy and the Stooges
What can i say? I'm easily distracted and i neglect certain things cause i got so much going on in my head that sometimes i forget that i even have a blog.
Last night i was privy to a poster coloring contest put on by my pal Lindsay Kuhn of SwampCo fame. He printed up some black and whites of the Stooges poster he did for LiveNation and invited hipsters to come down, pay $30 and color them in with whatever they could find, with proceeds benefitting the Bennet Skatepark build in our hometown of Denver. It was all for the children! I'm a sucker for markers so i did a little ditty on the puter the night before and spray mounted it to the poster and colored and shaded and drank a beer or 2 to pass the time. Final product (to the left), netted me 2 tixies to the Iggy and the Stooges show, a new Swamp Koozie, a signed and numbered Kuhn version of the poster, some other Swamp swag and a $20 bar tab. Ain't to bad for 30 bucks. The crew from the 3Kings Tavern hosted and judged. Next weeks poster (Thrusday night) is the Decemberists.
All this fun art gets a fella amped up. Accolades about the SAF press kit that i made up for the September show at the 3Kings/Phoenix Gallery, most popular poster for the night, Constatine slurring in my ear after too much whiskey that he wanted to kill me and that he loves me, meeting Simon the funk and soul brotha who was DJing and the Rev. Jim having Pinstripe Red on tap. What a sweet night!
