Art Axes by Doug Keith. Many of Keith’s arty guitars can be seen on display at Experience Music Project.
Starting this Friday during monthly Art-Up on Greenwood-Phinney, Urban Lights Studio in Greenwood will open several rock ‘n’ roll inspired shows. In addition to Doug Keith’s guitars, Urban Lights will also host “Soundgarden Unseen”, a collection of Soundgarden memorabilia from their final record, Down on the Upside. And if you’re mad for gig posters like me, be sure to check out the original poster art of local SeattleliteTom Dewar. Dewar has created posters for artists like Mudhoney, The Decemberists, The Long Winters and Reverend Horton Heat.
Guilty of being delicious indeed. *Original image removed by request*.
It’s true, hot dog tattoos are forever. Anyway, while it’s debatable that hot dogs are actually delicious, it is possible that getting inked with a hot dog tattoo might decrease your chances of getting laid.
More hot dog tatts that illustrate my sexy point after the slightly NSFW jump…
The ArizonaSenate has passed a law backed by the cold, dead hands of the NRAthat would allow people with concealed-weapons permits to bring their guns into establishments that serve alcohol. It’s expected that Arizona’sRepublican GovernorJan Brewer will make the law official this Wednesday. The law specifies that while patrons may carry weapons into places like TGI Friday’s, they will not be allowed to consume alcohol while on the premises. 138,350 Arizona residents have concealed-weapons permits. Restaurants and bar owners who do not want pistol packing patrons on their property will be required to post signs banning them from their business.
Tennessee passed a similar law earlier this year and 41 other U.S. states (!) now allow guns to be carried into places that also serve hooch.
My favorite lunatic lens man, Joshua Hoffine, is back this month with a new photograph called Babysitter. In keeping with his all-in-the-family vibe when it comes to the subjects of his scary snapshots, the role of the babysitter is played by Hoffine’s oldest daughter. The unsuspecting baby is Hoffine’s niece, Thea. The last time Thea made an appearance in one of Hoffine’s photographs she was about to be eaten my a snake. I am unapologetically in love with this man and his outlaw approach to art.
