Check out that peroxided spiky hair do… no, it’s not one of the millions of copy cats spawned by the White Wedding video, it is the real BILLY IDOL. Our resident photographer shot lots of photos of us signing prints and hanging out, but then bailed for Mexico with the photos on his laptop. Now that’s what I call a BOLD STRATEGY! Anyway, I did the album package for Billy’s greatest hits album and a screen printed poster to go along with it. The prints are signed by me and Billy. The edition is 400. They are $50. Billy’s album “Idolize Yourself” comes out June 24. It contains all the classics plus some good new songs. The new wave meets propaganda package alone makes it worth picking up. I also got to interview Billy and we may put some of that up on YOUTUBE. Stay tuned.

I did an interview for “News Conference” and it is going to be airing this Sunday. The show airs right after “Meet the Press” on NBC. If you can’t wait to watch it, you can just go here to watch it right now. The interview mainly focus’s on Obama, but it is a good interview.

Mr. Brainwash is an enigma. I want to hug him one second and smack him the next. He is awesome, infuriating, almost impossible to define, but if an artist is defined by relentless, obsessive passion, then MBW is definitely an artist. Which kind of artist though? When I first met MBW he was a film maker. He started documenting me putting art up on the streets and in galleries back in ‘99. He has hundreds of hours of footage and often risked his neck climbing with a camera to very dangerous spots. MBW’s camera was ALWAYS on…
