correct

Contest entries end tomorrow @ 8pm

If anyone regrets ordering the hardcover book for some reason, PM me cause I regret not ordering the hardcover haha. Aka I'll buy yours.

Haha, I would leave open the option for sizes other than medium, but that's all I have left unfortunately

Spoiler alert: If you don't/can't wear a size Medium t-shirt you might not be interested. I've decided to give another give away, and this one is different than all of the others. This time I will be giving away a 2-color screen-printed t-shirt I designed/illustrated. It was made for my senior project last year (under the moniker Symmetry) and I have a few laying around still. The shirt was limited to 25 prints and the one I'm giving away is size medium in mens because that's all I have left. Anyway, the only thing I require for this contest is that the winner covers shipping costs. I haven't mailed a shirt in a while, but with the mailer + shipping I'm estimating $4.50 - feel free to correct me if this seems unfair. A winner will by selected with a random generator and the contest entries end on 6/25 @ 8pm. Enter by commenting below. The shirt looks like this, and is on a heather orange/peach kind of color: Enter by commenting below!

Same press, the first 500/1000 were numbered. I don't think mine is numbered.

wutta steal. You're getting it for like less than manufacturing costs haha, awesome. (the band got paid still!)

Looking for this (any variant) if anyone is willing to give it up.

I believe all are sold out other than army green and the Banquet Records UK blue/red swirl variant: http://www.banquetrecords.com/aaronwest

As an artist, I say there aren't really any rules to the length of a song unless it's for the radio which is a whole different story. I'm sure they're capable of writing longer songs haha. As a fan of their music, I personally like how their songs are short and to the point, it makes me want to listen more and more. A lot of punk songs are shorter than the average song, so I feel like it kind of pays homage to that too whether they're doing it on purpose or not. /my thoughts

Haha this is awesome

Why do people always blame their wives for shit? Haha.

It's different, sometimes it's word of mouth, sometimes a band I like will follow me on twitter or something and I'll just say what's up and it'll lead to a design from me essentially asking, but in some cases the bands already know my work. It's just a variety of things. For the Aaron West, I definitely approached him with an idea and then he gave me the "ok" and it went from there. Hope to keep working with him as well. Another example... I'm working on a pretty big project right now with an awesome label and like 8 bands involved that you know/probably listen to a few of them, and in this instance I was approached by the label and asked to do the project. So it just varies man. It's definitely a snowball effect, and I've been doing this for like 6 years and worked for a wide range of people so different doors are opened after a while. Definitely doesn't happen overnight.

You can get the shirt I designed for him online now, as well as some others. The link to mine: http://www.coldcutsmerch.com/products/aaron-west-and-the-roaring-twenties-tv-family-shirt

they sound good acoustic, diggin' it.

Yeah dude that's a bummer haha. However, paypal is great for things like this vs a debit/credit card

bump

It's on CYLS still

Haha I've been telling myself that for a while now. I only do it with really awesome releases and typically only buy the first press multiples if I do. I'm weird.

Oh, word! That makes me feel better about my decision then haha

I didn't know topshelf would be stocking the CYLS "exclusive" bone variant, damn. Should've waited and got the 10% off + combined shipping with other pre-orders, but realistically I knew I wouldn't have risked the wait to find out haha

I couldn't help myself. Got the bone, splatter, and color and color. CYLS for the win.

hella readers. 56 at the moment.

yeeeeeeeeeeeeee
