UNDERCOVER ZERO PRESS!

2009-08-31T08:58:00.000-07:00

Ok, so i've been blogging now for about 6 months and have only made one post about some of the press ive been getting. It's great to hear what people have been saying about what i love to do, and it just keeps making me want to do more and more! I've been itching my head as to see what i can do next...who knows....

as far as press goes, i had a lot for the Paper Jam show that I was involved in, but a lot of that was about the group as a whole. Some of this press is from personal blogs, store sites and even my friend that runs the Sailor Jerry Blog.

http://blog.sailorjerry.com/post/johnny_brendas_july_23rd_kurt_vile_tyvek_coconut_coolouts_amp_personal_and_the_pizzas/

There were a whole bunch of other ones, but the main article was derived from the street anatomy site. It seems like making music posters using parts of the human body attracts whole different crowds.

Some new stuff will be posted in the next few days. I have a bunch of stuff that i'm working on and finishing up!

Ok, so I've taken a few weeks off from poster-making, to making shirts, djing, and wracking my brain about what to do next...I then was stoked to hear that the Horrors were playing Johnny Brenda's on September 16th.
