Frankly most of the night was lost under the haze of alchy-hol, but gosh, I sure do think I’m funny, but otherwise I get very silent.

I had no idea the night would turn out to be one of my best 4th of July’s yet. Drinking, bullshitting and eating damned good food! Major props to Branson for being a kickass host.
Adventure #325: Out With Routt, In With Knickerbocker!
on July 1, 2009 at 11:59 amPosted In: Comics
So, I’d been feeling bad that I don’t hang out with my buddy Routt as of late, and that we haven’t been exploiting the awesomness that is Monster Hunter multiplayer. So I finally get to hang out, and I get a call!
I’d been telling my good buddy Sean Knickerbocker of Danger Park fame, that I’d help him and Alex Bullett move whenever they needed help, and I guess I’d always imagined it would be on July 1st, and luckily I had the day off!
Turns out, he’d done a majority of the moving the day before, so I felt he would need my help that day, so I made plans to hang with Josh… and then this wackiness happens! WOOPSIE DOODLES! But it’s cool I ended spending the night with Sean, hanging outside his sweltering apartment, with guest stars Pranas and Alex. Drinkin’ beers and talking comics.
Ah well, there’s always tommorrow for Mosnter Hunter!
Well, here it is, I hope that this can in some way be an appropriate send-off to my good friend and mentor Jeremy “Sweetwater” Mullins.
I don’t think I can say much more that hasnt already been said about the man, other than that I’m going to miss that shit eating grin when we’d crack jokes with him recording SEQALAB every friday. We miss you Sweetwater, and I hope you get some big titty angels up there, god’s gotta get that shit straight.
Also, Sweetwater’s said “fuck that” to angel wings in leiu of a kickass jetpack from a Memorial Pic my buddy James Workman drew up:
So, The Zine Fair, eh?
Well, I’ve spent pretty much 100% of my night cutting, folding and stapling minicomics, except for that half-hour when I passed out. So I’ve put alot into the preparation, I had put together small price chart for anyone curious, and I’d already made a giant “Brain Seed Studios” sign to catch people’s eyes. Which worked pretty well, I think. The only thing I was really cross about was that as I set the podcast equipment up, Dave Wheeler set up right next to it! Which is sort of where I was hoping to be. And since I was manning the podcast, I had to get up everytime somebody was looking at my stuff and had to make a sales pitch.
Now, I don’t mean to be a sour puss, but I was trying to push some fairly new stuff, and Dave had printed up stuff he did for class a year ago, well, and a posted he made a few days before, but I felt I needed that face time with the crowd. And I was pretty busy getting interviews and watching the computer, so I couldn’t always get up. But whatever, I’m splitting hairs at this point.
We were extremely fortunate to have the fair land on SCAD Day, which is when students from high school, and their parents visit the school to see what it’s all about. So, the student center was PACKED at peak times with curious high schoolers, and somewhat dissaproving parents. Some of the zine tables arent exactly the most cleanest of material.
And the podcast went off without a hitch! We got plenty of interviews with the fair’s several participants, though no casual bistanders, which is what I was hoping for. Oh well! Much thanks to anyone who participated! HUGE HUGE Thanks to Dave Wheeler and Pranas for being the best co-hosts in the universe. To be honest, I was pretty quiet, so they carried alot of the show.
Now, though, I must shoulder the great burden of editing this monster! Check it out, monday at SEQALAB!
