4th of July with the Corporate Whores... Road gig!



Because I'm talkin' about the road! Its vacation time...This year me and the boys are heading back to Rome(Georgia that is) for another homecoming performance. Its always a blast up there and the people have been supportive of our crazy musical endeavor. I will be back Monday to finish up part 2 of the Shyloh comic, some freelance band artwork, as well as getting back into the artshow game. July is gonna be crazy busy!

Georgia on my mind...the sequel



"Red dirt hills, totem pole pills, and hundred dollar bills!"

Back to Georgia for a another hometown show. The guys(except for me) are from a small city called Cedar town(located a little north of Atlanta). This should be a great turnout with plenty of friends and family in the crowd. I don't really know what else is going on besides the show and a day at Six Flags, but its good to get away now and then. This I know for sure its gonna be a weekend of roller coasters, music, home cookin', moonshine, pills, and a little R&R in the Georgia mountains...Sweet!

Back home from the Georgia gig....

Back home from one of the funnest gigs I ever had! I have to admit, I was not sure what to expect. Everyone was cool and hospitable, the weather was great, and we packed the place out. The show itself was a blast! We performed very well, especially with no real monitors for the guitars. Clay's band was a blast to see live. It was a real homecoming for the other guys in the band. 60-100 friends and family came out and partied with The Corporate Whores and Clay Broome. Heres just a few of the pics:



Proof we had to change out band name!

Georgia on my mind...



Gearing up for the weekend in Rome...Georgia, that is. The Corporate Whores are going to their (myself excluded) hometown to play Schroeder's Deli on May 24th. Rome is a small town with around 36,000 people (according to their website).

It should be a strange trip indeed. First of all, we had to change the name of the band to "The Corporate HORSE". Secondly, we are going to have to edit the lyrics. There are several references to drinking, drug use, and what can be interpreted as aggressive sexual acts. Third, we are playing very early for a two band bill. On the bright side, we do get an hour set. Luckily we have enough material. It will definitely be odd for me being in an authentic small backwoods town. We are even staying at someones cabin for the duration. I have a camera and plan to use it and report on my experience, or document my final days. Watching movies like "Deliverance","Wrong Turn" and "Cabin Fever" aren't helping my state of mind.

Its almost as scary as the layout of this poster...Come to Rome...theres a building with a watercolor photoshop filter...some creepy toothless kids in a car...You thing they would have used some nice nature photography, mountains, trees,or something. Oh well...Wish me luck!

Corporate Whores in Georgia!



The boys take the show on the road! Rome, Georgia will host a rockin' homecoming for Clay Broome and the guys in the band(except for me). The poster was inspired by an image I saw of Abe Lincoln fighting an ape...How awesome is that? The bigfoot is a caricature of Clay Broome himself.It should be a crazy weekend in the middle of the woods. Another funny note is that we will be billed as the Corporate HORSE... You gotta love small town politics... I hope it doesn't end up like the band in Hard Rock Zombies. If it does, I hope we can film a sweet montage like this.
