The one, the only Mitch O’Connell (if you don’t know him, google the name and be amazed!) curated an amazing show and asked me to take part. How could I resist when I heard the canvas was to be my favorite seat in the house? As the flyer states, “The world’s greatest artists have applied their craft on a unique canvas…for your restroom enjoyment!” Personally, I’ve seen a lot of crap in my day, but to date, this is the best crap I’ve ever seen! Come out and have a pants droppin’ good time, say hi, and check out some amazing art.
What: “Art to Poop On” Group Show Where: Tattoo Factory, 4443 N. Broadway, Chicago, IL 60640 When: Friday, 26 March 2010, 6-11pm
Word to that! In case you didn’t notice, we did an exclusive T-shirt with Travis Lampe for his “Wee Epic Masterpiece Theatre” opening at Rotofugi Gallery this past weekend. Now that the exhibit has debuted, we’re happy to bring you a very, very limited quantity of the “Wee Epic” T-shirts for both men and women, available right here in the online store.
Get one while you can, as they won’t last long! And be sure to check out pieces from the opening at Rotofugi’s website. Pick up the shirts for both men and women right here.
What what?! Our family at Rotofugi are having a smashing double gallery opening tonight, with “Wee Epic Masterpiece Theatre” by Travis Lampe and “Beneath the Noise” by Dan May. All new pieces will be in the house, so be sure to swing on through and see the goodness…
What: New works by Travis Lampe and Dan May Where: Rotofugi Gallery, 1955 W. Chicago Ave., Chicago, IL 60622 When: Friday, 19 March 2010, 7-10pm Other details: Show runs through 4 April 2010
In addition to that, we’ve produced an exclusive T-shirt by Travis Lampe for the show. Jeah! “Wee Epic” is available in both men’s and women’s sizes, featuring a cream print on our ultra-soft charcoal tees. These are very limited, so pick one up! We’ll have a couple available online after the weekend in case you can’t get out to Rotofugi or aren’t anywhere near Chicago. Alas, we invite you to come out, because Travis and Dan have straight murdered it with their new work.
Every year, thousands of like-minded folks – and by ‘like-minded,’ we mean ‘people who love to perform, see performances, and/or party like the apocalypse is nigh’ – gather in Austin, Texas, for the annual South by Southwest festival, better known as SXSW.
And with that comes an influx of Scumbag Nation representatives from across the land. We don’t actually have schedules for everyone, but we can assure you that DJ Intel, DJ Pickel, Kid Static, Gustav Mandible, Psalm One, Scuba Gooding, Sr., B. Rock (Breakdance Chicago), Misa, Madadam, and a host of other scumbags will certainly be holding it down. Be sure to click on their names for websites and info so you know where to go and what the hell to do.
Or you could just watch for Scumbag Nation sightings. They’re easy to spot, and usually rocking a party like it’s never been rocked. Got that? I know it’s not a plethora of info, but I figured something would be better than nothing. Ya’heard? So yeah, do that there.
I got so damn busy with SXSW and Travis Lampe’s “Wee Epic Masterpiece Theatre” goodies that I had to postpone blogging it up for several days. Sorry about that shit! So, I’ve been holding onto this video for over a week, telling myself not to forget to post it. Word to rememberings…
This is all Machina Muerte goodness, so be prepared for nothing but the best of satisfaction. If you have no idea what that means, this should help you. So then, Isaiah Toothtaker and Awkward did the song “Rare Form,” and then Serp animated a video for it. I don’t really need to say shit else, because honestly, it kicks the ass of pretty much anything you’ve seen or heard in a while. Got that?
It’s early, I’m busy, and you need to watch this. As we used to say back in the day, ‘Tis y’all…
