About me: i used to run a record label called KittyBoo. i released 3 records -- the debut 7" from Austin TX bubblegum superstars Poopiehead, a Bunnygrunt / Tullycraftsplit 7", and finally the 7" soundtrack to J.otto Seibold's Free Lunch childrens book, with narration and instruments by singer, songwriter, Blue Man Group and They Might Be Giants collaborator & film-strip artist extraordinaire Brian Dewan.
a 7" with Rodney Alan Greenblat was in the works, but we eventually lost contact after the release of UmJammer Lammy rocketed Rodney to even greater success. other projects with comic artist Ron Rege, Jr. (a cd meant to be included with what would eventually become Skibber Bee Bye) and various indiepop bands from around the globe also fell by the wayside. i'd like to fix that sometime.
now i mostly write about video games, steering the good ship Offworld for internet-institution Boing Boing.
Hello Brandon. It looks you have some great indie-pop, abstrakthiphop tastes... it's forever to talk to people with interesting tastes! Have a good day!
what what what?!?!?!! you're in austin now?! you have to explain yourself to me! why not come up here before then, eh? I'm going to have a killer party up here for our bdays y'know... :D
i just ordered the isabel bishop EP by unrest last nite for 25 cents on amazon. ...good stuff! made me think of you. how have you been? i see you went to the live kids in the hall show.
I was going to leave you a super long-ass comment, but I got all caught up on figuring out where to strategically place commas for maximum reading effectiveness.
Aww thanks Schmitty!! He oughta be really schmart...he's half blue heeler, half aussie shepherd. We actually don't have him yet because he's not weened off his momma's teet yet. I can't wait!!
