Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
Since Martin’s camera isn’t working, and well, since some of the images may go in the mag anyway, here’s what he looked like selling goods. Notice the GR’s on the table? Tons of merch, and a good deal too since you don’t pay shipping, and since Japanese CD’s are expensive! Boris rocks, and plays psychedelic hard rock, and Damon and Naomi… they were great. I’m not sure if they’re better as a simple duo, or with a whole band, but they did sound great. I remember seeing them and Naomi played some weird accordion type instrument. Now a cellist, a sax, and Kurihara on guitar, he’s way right, you can’t see him in the photo. That’s Naomi in the middle, Damon on the left, and the sax dude on the right. Naomi’s outfits are sponsored by Gary Graham. I don’t know how this all happened, but in the photo above, Naomi is wearing a sequined dress. I’m not sure if it’s a compliment (it would be for me – if I wore a dress – I think?) but the dress looked like chain mail from where I was standing. If I had a short sword, and took a swing, I think Naomi would be singing behind the keyboards.

Clare Rojas new book... I wrote about this before, and now Juxtapoz blogged it too.
Ironically, I just stole the photo back. Hope you don't mind either! I didn't know I had dry wit, but that sounds pretty good, I think.

If they don’t have it, tell them to carry it.

So the hunt was on, and we have a new ad person, I'm not sure if I can release the name just yet, and I'm not sure if their self defense, "beat up someone skills" are up to par with Kiyoshi's, but I think we'll be in good hands. Sometimes, mental kung fu is just as important.
Meanwhile, issue 50 is shipping shortly. I'm excited. Are you? It's going to be a fun one.
Also a David Choe $ GR skatedeck...

No pic of that one yet, just thought I’d tell you about it. It’s going to be nice. It’s fun making things once in a while, we have to do more of that. Anyone want to play?
