The past couple of years have been great if you are into in wars, recession, and the re-election of idiotic leaders! Well, if you aren’t then you already know that this years Presidential Election is an important one - Maybe one of the most significant in U.S history . We are trying to do our part in making some changes and looking into a brighter future for our children… Yup, thats right, our children. But thats another story so I digress… To help keep the political activism and climate charged (as if the OBAMAmenon wasn’t enough), Shepard was asked by the Rock The Vote Organization to help get some voter registration awareness out there. Shepard created this design and printed up some limited edition prints. Some of the prints were given directly to the RTV organization and the others are being release here on July 1st. They are an edition of 350 and $35 each. GET OUT AND VOTE!

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.
