Installation of some of my show/tour posters.

Jason Urick was also a member of Wzt Hearts. This poster is from after we had moved on to other projects, and I also played this show as my solo project, Vows. This was the record release for Jason's amazing solo debut record "Husbands", on Thrill Jockey Records. This is also exactly what he looks like.

Daniel Higgs and Asa Osborne asked me to make them a poster for their band, Lungfish, also in 2004. Each letter depicts a specifically awesome-named wildflower, like the Wild Bleeding Heart, the Twin Flower, Indian Pipes, etc.

A couple years later, my band was fortunate to tour with Daniel from Lungfish as he started playing solo shows around that time. I can't really express the admiration and respect I and the rest of my band had and still have for this shimmering holographic man and all the wisdom found in his works. It was a weird tour, to be sure.

The first official show at the Floristree. Floristree is the name of my home, the sixth floor of the H&H Arts Building in downtown Baltimore. We have been proudly putting on some of the best shows in one of the best spaces that any independent and DIY arts community could ask for. This is a fact we feel privileged and proud to continue, even if it does mean a lot of human energy/electrical energy/trash/mysterious house guests.

Out of Baltimore Tour 2005. Thank You is another great Baltimore band that now have 2 good albums, also on Thrill Jockey records.

OOIOO is a japanese band featuring Yoshimi who also plays for the seminal/legendary Japanese noise icons, The Boredoms. The letters OOIOO are built into the porch-like architecture of this psychedelic treehouse. This was for a tour of the US in 2007, and was screenprinted in Chicago for Thrill Jockey, as well.

The poster for the second year of the huge indoor/outdoor festival at the Talking Head Club, organized by Lexie Mountain and the Talking Head. I really love the braided letters I made here to go with the featured braided beast.

Yeasayer and Ponytail are spelled in a diamond in left to right read tiers. They are screenprinted at 18"x24", and the slightly lighter letters composed of less dense squares, glow in the dark. This field of graphed blobs contains some 30,000 hand-drawn squares. This took a long time, but was worth it in the end in the light or in the dark. Great bands, as well.

This amazing show was all they way back in November 2004, at the Ottobar in Baltimore. *The name of my band was Wzt Hearts. It could be and was pronounced "Wet Hearts", it could be and was spelled in other random variations, such as here, "Wzt Hoerts". There are a few reasons any of this happened, but they also don't make any real sense. We were an improvised noise band with electronics/modified and prepared instruments from guitars to game boys, and I played drums and sort of screamed and cooed in weird voices sometimes. Between 2004 and 2008, we played some really amazing shows like this one, toured the country, and released 2 albums and other live smaller-run releases.
