I’m a bit thrown off today. I just heard Lux Interior from The Cramps had passed away this morning. How terribly sad. I started to think of the first time I heard about the Cramps. A cute punk rock boy in my ninth grade math class asked me if I had any Cramps. My face flushed bright red not knowing what to say. He said “no no the band!” then proceeded to show me a flyer. After this initial introduction I saw a video for Bikini Girls with Machine Guns and was hooked after that. Stay Sick was the first album I owned by them. They are one of the few bands from my teenage years that still get me excited when I listen to them and getting to see them perform live was always a great time. Their colored vinyl hasn’t left the record player this evening. Goodbye creature from the black leather lagoon thank you to you and Poison Ivy for all the music.

I’m sorry for your loss Poison Ivy……

Jami Lee Rosa, who runs the art magazine Carmine, recently asked me to do an interview. The contents have just been posted online. To read the interview please click here.

The two box purses posted below are for sale at Subtext. They are only keeping them for a week or two so if interested please get in touch with Subtext or myself. The size of the boxes are 5″ H x 5″ W (not including handle) 3″ wide. They both are bits and pieces of places I’ve been. I sewed the insides and handle.
