Previous Melvins Poster

Here is an official poster I did for the Melvins/Big Business show at Reggie's last Nov. 20th. After years of getting screwed over of not getting to see the Melvins live, I was offered a chance to design a poster and that was my ticket to finally seeing these legends live, and they didn't dissapoint. In celebration of this milestone, I'm having a free download of the poster available. It's a hi-res 11x17 JPEG so if you want to download it and print it for your wall, go right ahead, just right click and save. Hope everyone had a great Turkey weekend!

Monday Monster Mania

Tonight, I shall be go attend a screening of a Swedish vampire film called "Let The Right One In". I've read a lot of good reviews for this film and I am going on a limb to say that this is definitely be way more worthwile to watch than that other vampire movie that came out, Twilight. Besides, Swedes by default can make any horror film grimmer and more frostbitten.

On another note, Indian versions of American music videos are a fucked up mix of uber cheesiness and WTFology. Their version of Michael Jackson's thriller looks like a vision of some dude who was watching that on Indian MTV while on shrooms.
