About me: Hey sickos. I'm Jason Potter. Sometimes I'm "donny dont". Mostly I'm just bored.
I used to be an art director at an advertising agency in St. Louis. Now I make, eat, live, breathe, and sleep rock posters. I was recently named "Best Concert Poster Designer" by the Riverfront Times Best of St. Louis 2009.
I play the drums. Mostly in Celebrity Autopsy. I used to play in LEFT ARM before we bit the dust. Also, I'm developing my one man band, Leeroy "Tubby" Tubman.
I'm the pops to two amazing little girls, Katie and Corie. We play.
Who I'd like to meet: Other freedom haters and Joan Holloway

FILTHY is going down this SAT @ DANTES!! come suck down a few $2 well drinks with us, it's our last party at this venue before we move to Atomic Cowboy in May!!
Haha it was. It had to happen though. Exene's set was really slow country songs. Very beautiful stuff though. Then Lee was playing a bunch of covers including Sweet Home Alabama (??) The crowd was about to erupt and when Beef Bologna hit everyone went ape shit. Then I Dont Care About You, More Beer, ect. It was interesting.
..so we wanted to let you know that the very first FILTHY ever is going down THIS SATURDAY (april 4) @ Dantes. Should we be expecting to see you on the dance floor !?!?!? -Kenzie
