CANCELLED

Image

This time we’re serious!

Come and join us for a night of surf rock shenanigans! We’ll be bringing a tasty arsenal of vintage gear, a skeleton, a giant drummer, a fez, a mask and snorkel, gallons of reverb, and a clone of Prince Harry who will seduce all women over 50 with his sultry saxomaphone! More instrumental guitar music than you can shake a Quentin Tarantino at!

Well, we've hit peak venue fuckaround now. Cancelled on us because the owner wants a DJ to play RnB after the Rugby.

Time to include a late cancellation fee in your terms?

It's an option but it's not a great look.

I like the robots marching out of the sea poster. 1950s Senator McCarthy era paranoia that seems to be making a comeback. Kind of Fallout Atompunk too. Did somebody you know draw it?

Nice work!

Pulp SF should keep you postered for an entire career.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
