ON A WIRE
March is creeping up FAST and I'm eager to get things in the mail and into your hands!
The record sleeves will be finished sometime during the coming week, thanks to A Mystery In Common. After a lot of consideration and a technical necessity, I decided to forgo having any of the type printed on a letter press and instead to have both sides of the cover screen printed. I'd like to think you'll thank me later. The first run of ink was finished on Friday night!
I received some sour news from the record press this morning. Apparently, the lacquers they had made for my album broke which means new ones have to be made. This pushes this project back by another [unwelcome] week. Come hell or high water, I'm doing everything in my power to have them by the first of March but the odds are stacking against me.
One new show has been added to the queue, see if it's close to you : : :
