Crush Them All

In honor of Harvey Milk’s killer set last night, check them out playing Crush Them All live.
Note that Joe Preston is playing second guitar. Joe’s stint in the band was pretty short lived as he’s apparently no longer in the band.

Sails of Charon

Scorpions performing Sails of Charon “live” 1977.

If I had to pick one personal theme song, like a sitcom montage intro for myself, this is way up in the running.

YHWH

Mark Ryden’s first vinyl figure, YHWH, is officially for sale.
Pick it up through Porterhouse.

From Porterhouse:

YHWH is a vinyl figure created in conjunction with Necessaries Toy Foundation after the central figure in Mark’s painting of the same name. In production for more than a year, the figure is cast in pink vinyl with inset, high-quality eyes and comes in an elaborately designed, gold embossed box.

As a bonus, when YHWH is purchased through Porterhouse, a special limited edition, numbered mini-print will be included with your order.

Although I’m a big fan of Mark Ryden, I’m pretty disappointed with the aesthetic and subject matter of this figure. Hopefully he’ll come through with something stronger next time.
