Who I'd like to meet: Dead or alive ... Michel Foucault, Stanley Kubrick, Judith Butler, Frank Miller, George Orwell, the person who invented World Free Comic Book Day, you (if you're nice, that is).
I really wanted to call our next album "Hold me closer Tony Danza", but the others wouldn't agree to it. I think there's a band by that name in the US.
We totally stole you from the I am Duckeye page, thanks for the friendship! I love Free Comic Book Day.
Wicked. They've got nice stuff, and they put up posters for our wrestling event too. nice one. We're fantastic and pretty busy. Working on a new website for a big client, and just found out Bjorn's dvd's for Riot City Wrestling are going to be sold in a shop at Glenelg. Which is cool for him. Pretty happy, but missing the city a bit. :)
An I am Duckeye The Ocean is Blue Are/Why video clip...Look out world! That is the most bestest news I could imagine. Please say you are for real. sam :) xoxo
