For a fan it was an unbelievable experience to hear the album played in its entirety, as well as many other classics from their catalog. Even better were the many […]

I was pleased to be asked to contribute my reportage drawings to VAROOM! magazine. The publisher Derek was looking to feature illustrators that reportage live music and he was a fan of the drawings I made of Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks last year. Here is a post about that show. VAROOM! is a great […]
