Photos from the amazing Liverpool Screenadelica exhibition as part of the Sound City festival. A massive thanks to Gary for doing so much work putting it on and to Jack our sound tech for doing a stunning job under such hangover induced, sleep deprived conditions. Also it was a pleasure to hang out with some new faces like Stephen Chan, Craig Robson and the guys from the In The Room Print Co.

The Show was then packed down and carted out to Barcelona for the Primavera Sound festival so expect to see photos of that soon.

A few process pics of the original drawing I’m doing for the Japanese Fund raising Event postcard auction at Spanky Van Dykes in Nottingham this Saturday. I’ll be there from about 10pm with any luck.

In other news, the Kyuss Lives! show at Rock City is tonight so Adam Pobiak and myself will have our collaborative poster on sale from tomorrow.

More press on mine and Mr. Pobiak's Kyuss print from Inside The Rock Poster Frame and a rather nice animated gif that Adam has put together.

The Kyuss poster is a collaboration between Adam and Michael Cowell (http://www.michael-cowell.com/). He drew the girl and the cacti and Adam did the other bits.

Its for Kyuss Lives! Which is all members of Kyuss except for Josh Homme. So the line up is (John Garcia, Bruno Fevery, Nick Oliveri, Brant Bjork) for their show in Nottingham on march 31

And the band will be signing at least half the run.

KYUSS LIVES! Process #4

The finished print!

Everything has gone really well today. It’s been a pleasure printing with Adam on real equipment in a real studio with his amazing secret tools.

Signing and numbering an edition of 100 in the morning that will be on sale from Kyuss at their Rock City show on the 31st of March and from the two of us afterwards.

KYUSS LIVES! Process #3

Adam tackles that complex three part split layer.

KYUSS LIVES! Process #2

The first (gold) layer finished. We’ve used a really nice speedball metallic ink through a T45 screen so the coverage is nice and thick. There’s a subtle halftone worked in there based on the original pencils from one of my elements as well.
