NO MENTION OF ROGUES GALLERY. YOU ARE OUT OF THE FRIENDS CIRCLE
So, here’s my goal: If you’ve been following my blog, you’d have noticed that I have a bit of a narcissistic need to win this competition. I also like social experiments and artistic endeavours. So I combined it all into one.
Basically, I want to create a World Tour of Hatred. I want people to take a picture of their face, holding a sign with what they hate, then tag your post with #ihate. (Simpler than #gpoyw, I say.) The more people I get, especially from faraway lands, the better.
I’ll be collecting these all Sunday, Sydney time by checking the tag, then exhibiting them all in one big video of sorts, maybe. But really I just want to see how far this goes and hope I can create some sort of crazy Mexican wave of hatred across the world.
On that note, Reblog, Retweet, and tell your friends. Your likes are only worth something if you participate.
IF YOU ARE COMING FROM TWITTER: Tag your post the same way. Put it up as a twitpic/yfrog/twitphoto/any otehr type. It’ll still be used :)
Do people who used to be in bands but aren’t any more get offended if you try and talk to them about the past?
I’m considering going to see Grant Hart just to tell him that Hüsker Dü’s Zen Arcade means a lot to me.
I imagine he’s really interested in what pale twenty-one year old art students think about a record he wrote songs and played drums on over 20 years ago.
So this is actually very relevant to my recent activities: an interview I just did with Graham Coxon.
So I asked him one question about the reunion. He gave a one-sentence answer. I ask him a question about why he left Blur in 2002 though. Went into a lot of detail about how it felt for him at the time and seemed to enjoy recounting it.
I guess the lesson is: find a topic they’ll like about their past and they’ll happily divulge. If one isn’t available, don’t bother.
BREAKING: Recording Artist signs likeness to company whose games they’ve never played.
Comment was not able to be obtained from Tom Morello, Slash, Bret Michaels, Billy Corgan, Hayley Williams, Zakk Wylde, Ted Nugent, Travis Barker, Sting, Ozzy Osbourne, Matt Bellamy, Carlos Santana, Shirley Manson and the estates of Johnny Cash and Jimi Hendrix BECAUSE THEY READ THE FUCKING CONTRACTS.
Nail. It got hit. On the head.
9gag:
If I were really good with makeup I’d do this for Patrick Wolf.
Could probably manage the shirt.
Pixel Girl has a tumblr! With more pics, btw
