I love the Rats,my band covers there song "Kids are Kids" from
the record "Intermittent Signals"(1981).I love Dead Moon more, one of my faves.My friend Jason Summers just finished a full length documentary about Dead Moon
called "Unknown Passage".It's fucking awesome! All sorts of cool old cable access footage of the Rats & DM plus cool old pics of The Lollipoppe Shoppe ,Range Rats etc.. Jason got to hang out with Fred and Toody at there house in Clackamas. so there's also some great interviews .It's really quite ispirational,the way they've kept it so real for so long.Every time I hear myself bitching about getting or feeling old(36) I put on a Dead Moon record, they still fucking ROCK !
I'm also totally psyched because I get to design and print the poster for the movie !
Thanks, it's an 11x17 two color photocopy ,first black then through the bypass tray with red. Ahhh remember when the photocopy machines at kinkos had red,green,blue and sometimes brown ink?Those were the days.
24x36 is about the biggest I've gone, I work in my basement and before that it was a cramped apt. so space and storage for screens etc. has always been an issue.
Sometimes I'll go longways and print like 5 or 6 in a row . I did that with this one and wrapped some telephone poles like barber shop poles. One day I'll go big, I've always thought it would be cool to do a one off billboard for a show. 1 of 1
First I drew with an ink pen,then I copied on the copy machine,then I cut with my exacto ,then I pasted with rubber cement. mmmm rubber cement.
