About me: Drawings speak louder than words. The truth lies in the the textures and stains. Be it bled from the pen or the artery it drains from the heart.

Like- The ACCUSED, Slug and Lettuce zine(11yrs straight!), Profane Existence magazine, Kylesa, Skeleton Witch, Guided Cradle, Austin Lucas, Grimple, Contravene, US Christmas, Iron Lung/ Shank, Desolation, Audio Kollapse, Kakistocracy, Nux Vomica, Holy Mountain/ Cave Kanem, Unpersons, Capsule, Chronicle AD, In Defence/ Mother Speed, Hawg Jaw, Just Die!, Wake Up on Fire, INURE, Leechmilk, Resurrectum, Subrumanium, Words That Burn , Black Hole of Calcutta , Sorizon, A Hanging, RWAKE and many others I cant think of right now.

Yeah some things are going on. Lets see,...well, you missed the double feature screening of The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, & Her Lover + Being There (free movie series at the Rotunda)
Ulana's is actually back and the DJ that normally spins the side bar last night played mainly goth and some synth pop so it was much better than the average Saturday.
We'll hang soon. I have a movie you need to see.
Oh, and you're having an art show here in March (or April if you are on tour). You're also having one piece in a group show here in February.
Do you like how I don't ask you but rather just INFORM you?
Beebop is being a fantastic companion! We play in the yard, til she can't play anymore...and she hangs out with me while i work :) Philly finally got pretty cold, but it's still been mild up til about yesterday...we might (fingers crossed) get snow this weekend! the house is quiet without you in it, which is funny, cause you're not very noisy!!! i guess i can just feel the absence of your presence. weird, and kinda creepy. i've been netflixing some great movies, and thanks again for letting me use your account! watched "one flew over the cuckoo's nest", "henry and june", and "crazy love". getting some more great ones this week. i hope tour is treating you well! tell the guys hi from me! good luck, and kick some ass...
Yay, my very own feline with polydactyly! Seven toes on ea. paw to be exact! Say, Hush, how'd you feel about illustrating a children's book abt. hybrid animals who go to school together? I've got an authoress friend whose story needs an artist. She's also an open-minded skeptical ghost-hunter to boot! Lemme Gno, bro ~ (•8-D
I wished I'd been able to make that show at Bottom Of The Hill. I had band practice that night. I hope all is well with you. I enjoy looking at your art zine that you sent me long ago. Thanks again for that and thanks for keeping me posted on when you're out here. Please continue to do so. I hope to see you next time. Cheers~ Kelly
Hey there! Where is the concert? I never thanked you for your package. Your zine is beautiful. My guitar player actually had my mail for a while so I only received that about a month ago. I hope all is well with you. Cheers~ Kelly
eh they are okay. would be better if i had a room and a job. but i really do like PDX its very fitting to me. kinda gloomy. and all my art friends are here. so i have lots of projects to work on. might be in my friends shadow puppet troop. that will be fun as hell. also hopefully a new band soon. and other photo bloody performance shit. ah. things will be good as soon as i get a room.... kiss the beebop for me ! sam still misses her.
hey mister, i never had you pegged for a ccr fan, and i'm not generally one myself, but "i put a spell on you" is one of my all-time fave songs. just so ya know.
jeremy, how are things in (philly?). everyone seems to be moving out of asheville. are you gonna be on this next baroness tour? i'll be at the show in boston, and hope to see you there.
Thanks buddy! Asheville's been alright, I'm joining Sunshine SS on bass while Matt is going to play second guitar which is pretty exciting. Other than that stuff's been pretty stable, still working on immigration but it's getting there. Hope to see you in December, we should definitely hang out! I've been checking out some of your new artwork, pretty fucking amazing stuff. Hope all is well in Philly... See ya soon, cheers!
THe show was pretty good. But the sound there is weird. I bought a new deck to take on tour and got a Bethlehem cd. It finally got cold in savannah. feels good. back yard fires are in store for the coming months. stay frosty. s
