Once again we’re spreading the love with The Wishlist Foundation. This year we were flattered to be asked to create the gig poster for the Flight To Mars show at The Showbox. The best part is that Mike McCready totally got the little reference we put in the poster that we didn’t think anyone would get. [...]

Back when Living With the Living came out I had an idea for a set of posters inspired by the song Bomb.Repeat.Bomb. I wanted to have stamps made for “Bomb” and “Repeat” and then hand stamp the designs for the poster masters. Then each poster would have “Ted Leo and the Pharmacists” hand stamped to make [...]

Stanley Donwood, the man responsible for almost all art associated with Radiohead, has started his own record label. But wait, there’s a catch. There are only 3 releases that this label will ever [...]
I read today that Pearl Jam is going to re-release their debut album Ten in several sets ranging from a standard 2 disc set all the way through a box set containing discs, vinyl, dvd and memorabilia. I’ve been a fan of PJ for as long as I can remember not just for their music [...]

We had just a few days to design the poster and get the art to D&L Screenprinting in Seattle. Then we flew over from Spokane, picked [...]
My friend Dennis told me about this site called Pandora where you create a “station” based on a favorite group or song. Then it plays similar songs that you can customize to create the perfect stream of music and you might even discover music you’ve never heard of. It’s a great site, works really well [...]
