Write up in this weeks LV Weekly

Aaron Thompson interviewed me last week for this latest weeks edition of the Las Vegas Weekly. If you pick up a physical copy, it's on page 39. You'll find a link to where it's at on the LV Weekly website on the bottom of this post.

While I'm super stoked about this (thanks Aaron!), there is a false fact in the article: The band pays for nothing but the recording. They supply the music and anything they want artwork wise, and I press the record. Anyhow, yeah, check it out here:

Also, Travis is about halfway done with the covers for the Action Cat record. Here's what 75 of the 300 covers will look like:





There's 4 sets of 75, with different color variations of the screen. He showed up with the first 150 about a week ago (75 burgundy and pink, 75 brown and white), when he shows up with the rest, I'll post pics of the other colors. Zombie Jenn is taking care of the center labels, and they should be done real soon. Meaning of course, that the Action Cat 7" will actually be officially released before October.

I Am The Thief just played my living room Friday night, and their record is coming out next. Luckily, everything is just about done layout wise, and as soon as I get my shit together and send Mark the artwork for the label address, then he'll give me everything I need, and then it's off to the printers/pressing plant. I'm hoping around Halloween, because a Halloween record release show would rule, but the way my luck goes, it will be out no earlier than Thanksgiving. Let's hope nothing gets screwed up at either the pressing plant, or the printers. Let's hope.

Distribution:

I haven't gone as far as sending records out for distribution yet because a)I'm still waiting on the rest of the covers/vinyl for Action Cat, and b) I want to wait for the I Am The Thief record to be in my hands so I have more than one title to send to places. I do plan on dropping some off at both Zia records in town very soon though. The same goes for House Of Commons. So if you're interested in picking it up, let me know, and I'll get some down there sooner. Or, you can just order them from me or the bands themselves.



That's all I got this time around...I'll keep you posted as shit happens
