Maniac

I've got a new blog with Jake Grigg of the Australian band Something With Numbers.
We're recording an album together under the name Maniac, and while we're waiting to get together for our next session, on separate
continents, we've decided to do a somewhat random string of covers, as determined
by the billboard charts...
This was our first week, and our cover of the Black Eyed Peas is up, and can be
downloaded free at http://1thisweek.blogspot.com. Enjoy.

Holy Shi(r)t!

Three Keyboard Cat Moon
The Internet hath spoken, says "PRINT THIS NOW!"
Story by Threadless, design by OXEN.
Published July 21, 2009
Thank you, series of tubes for giving us "Three Keyboard Cat Moon." Once there were two separate Internet memes: Keyboard Cat - the loveable slapstick video closer, and Three Wolf Moon - the tee that launched a thousand satirical comments.
Now, you've morphed them together on Threadless via a design duo called OXEN to create a tee of historical proportions. In a matter of days, it's become Threadless' highest score ever, most votes ever, and most "I'd Buy It's" ever. This tee is so ridiculous and amazing that we're printing it now before the end of our scoring period!
Ironic jokes are just a fraction of what makes Threadless such an amazing place, and we thank you for weaving those tubes together to create the artistic diversity of our community.

For a grin, read the comments on threadless...

Me and Emilee's new Oxen design


You can score it HERE, on threadless.com, and subsequently order it, if kitsch is your fancy. When the shirts arrive, we're gonna have 3 Keyboard Cat Friday, and see how many people walk around town matching.
