FLYER FOR THE BOOK RELEASE SHOW.

WOOTINI SHOWING/T-SHIRTS/POSTERS

D. BOON T-SHIRTS, TWENTY DOLLARS EACH, AVAILABLE AFTER APRIL 4TH.

On Friday April 10th, there will be a showing of some of my work at Chapel Hill's WOOTINI. Here is a link to go to their website if you are interested:

http://wootini.com/main.php

It will be up for a month. There will be original paintings and artwork for sale plus all of the MANCHILD books as well as a few special items, mainly the Jer Warren/Brian Walsby silkscreened posters of the following "icons":

Greg Ginn
Kira Roessler
Milo Aukerman
Dinosaur Jr.
D. Boon.

Jer has ran twenty-five prints of each subject. Five of which will dropped off for Wootini. Ten of each will be put aside for the Tir Na Nog show. The other ten?

The other ten will be kept for selling via the internet. When the time is right, there will be an announcement from Jer about selling them, and once they are gone, they are gone.

five woodscreens of the five people will be on sale at Wootini.
each poster will be on sale for fifteen dollars each.
five complete sets of all five posters will be put aside and offered for sale as a special deal.

The other special item are the D. Boon t-shirts.

Made from the same drawing also used for the silkscreened posters, this bearded D. Boon image looks really cool on a red t-shirt. Only thirty of them have been made, I took one for myself, Charles took one for himself, and that leaves twenty-eight left to sell at twenty bucks a pop. Here is what we have size-wise:

8 small
12 medium
6 large
2 xtra large.

They will be on sale at the Tir Na Nog show, and then the rest will be up for grabs afterwards.
If anyone wants one online, it would be twenty dollars plus postage to get it to you. Once these are gone, they are gone. Contact me if you are interested and I will put one aside for you.

Thanks.

WWAX - LIKE IT OR NOT MERGE RECORDS DOWNLOAD AVAILABLE TO BUY.

MAC AT MERGE RECORDS HAS MADE THE MUSIC OF THIS BAND I WAS IN WITH HIM YEARS AND YEARS AGO AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC THROUGH HIS LABEL. IT WAS CALLED WWAX, AND IT IS PRETTY GOOD QUIRKY STUFF THAT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN. READ ON, IN MAC'S WORDS:


These are rare and out-of-print songs from Mac McCaughan’s pre-Superchunk band, Wwax.

"This is a collection of all the studio recordings that Wwax made, all done at Duck Kee Studios on Bickett Blvd in Raleigh in 1987 & '88.
Tracks 1 & 2 were released by our friend Steve Skrzyniarz on his label Leopard Gecko out in Tacoma. The next seven tracks came out on Merge in a double 7" format. The Songs "All Begins Again," "Just Like" and "Misinvite" were originally released as part of the 7" box set Evil I Do Not To Nod I Live, a collection that also included records by Egg, Slushpuppies, Black Girls, and Angels of Epistemology. The last two tracks were on a Wwax cassette that was Merge's second release ever. They include a Saccharine Trust cover we did live, plus the demo of the song "Seven" that we recorded at my house and that I always preferred to the better-sounding studio version.

We took turns singing the songs in Wwax, but they all bear the mark of Wayne's idiosyncratic sense of timing and Brian Walsby's uncanny ability to keep up with him. The sound is also shaped by the fiberglass Ovation Breadwinner guitar that I borrowed from Wayne and played exclusively through his tiny gray spraypainted Peavey Champ, which achieved a brittleness I've not been able to capture since! This is the first digital release of Wwax songs other than a couple stray tracks here and there, and it's strange to hear recordings that are certainly artifacts of a certain era that's not hardcore but not really something else specific either...which is how they sounded then, too."
