Quick! Banner

So, a couple of hours before last weeks gig we were sitting outside and topping up on some much needed r+r,

when I realize that GET STONED with Cosmic Jagger and friends don't have a backdrop!
We did have a banner, but I slightly remember giving it away one night and resolving to myself to make another one.

Someone commented that I didn't have enough time to do one before the gig.

Fifteen minutes later it was done.

GET STONED WITH COSMIC JAGGER This thursday nite, perranporth

i used to do some stones gigs with very competent musician friends, we were called the Cosmic Stones (previously to that, the Rolling Pancakes- its a long story!) the line-up changed quite a bit and lots of very loud, late and heady nights were had by all.

so last week i get a call from bono.. "you wanna do a gig?". "sure, bono! i'll be there!! give my love to ireland and the edge" . "its not that bono.. its ryan bono jones from the hitchcock rules..".

it was too late, i had said ill do it.. and just because this bono doesnt wear wrap-around sunnies and hang out with handlebar mustachios.. actually he might! ..but its still no reason to go back on my word.

This Thursday, 3rd sept

Seiners, Perranporth

8pm-late am

down by the beach car park

lots of other stuff too, cheap beer, loose women, rock n roll excess, tv's out the window.. you get the idea

BACK TO FISTRAL FOR ANOTHER QUIKIE!!

drawing for quiksilver again this weekend!!! fistral beach quiksilver surf showdown 09, also with legendary guitar manufacturers gibson! live music, surf comp and much booze-ridden excitement!!!! ..and hanging out on the gibson tour bus!!

i have no idea what ill be doing constructively, but it will involve drawing on stuff, having fun, surfing, enjoying the music and beer, and hopefully sun, .. you get the idea!! ::)))

..i was just explaining this to a friend, beth, i bumped into just now in the villiage shop. we were talking about what were doing for the weekend, she says "i need a job where i get to do what i enjoy!" i said "what do you enjoy?" and the conversation lead onto photography, travel, food (but not a chef!), maybe organizing foodie nights, etc and i suggested blogging as a way to share and focus on her interest..

..kind of reminded me why i started this.

..so when beth starts her blog ill post a link here. she suggested a great name.

have a good weekend! come to newquay!!

cosmic

so they want t-shirts. no problem?

easy, you'd think. got design. find a printer and print it. 

no way! getting a printer to print what you want is almost impossible and for years i have been bored into turning back to my drawing board (you see what i did there) time and time again with claims that "that image wont print using screen printing" etc.

lately i have had quite a few requests about tee-shirt designs and have done a bit of research. mostly resulting a disapointed meeting with someone who finds the whole process too taxing at its most basic form to ever consider wasting effort to push any boundaries. then, today i met will.

a total self-confessed screen geek, with a cool nature and bags of style, will gets his results no matter what the obstacles. so he's our man.  the design was pulled from the ideas the yoof design team 'the cosmic 5'  on friday, and will be ready to buy on shirts at the gig on the 14th.
