Records usually are required for most things I do. I use the term records loosely, as a piece of work not exclusive to format, but I do love vinyl...I live in a one horse, two timing, three tavern town...

About me: I like to people watch, but hate people. I love airports, but not usually the flight. I love going to shows, buying records, drinking all night till the sun comes up, then sleeping all day. Breakfast is my favorite meal. I love tattoos and would have more if I had the cash. Money means nothing to me, so therefore I never have any. I only care about being happy and if my friends are as well. I love my friends and will kill for them if need be, so don't fuck with them. Stevens was my soulmate, he's a cat, think about his name, it rules. Eldridge is the man-cat. Betty was my car, I loved her. She was my automobile soul-mate. She had no cd player, and the same tapes got played over and over even though there were many, The "Demons" Misfits and Against Me! usually.My currant car is nameless I call it the Korean thing, it has a cd player, it has a cd stuck in it. I like to drive, the longer the journey the better, but I hate Journey. I love to ride my bike, but don't enough. I don't mind riding in the summer heat of AZ. I eat what I want, and I don't want to eat flesh.

The Golden Rule Tattoo is a fine shop owned and operated by our peers in the punk/HC music community and I couldnt think of a better fit of folks to be involved in this project. So all in all now whats your excuse to not be involved in this once in a lifetime art project.
