New Twitter Background
I finally got a few minutes of downtime which is pretty rare for me and decided to spice up my twitter background.
As a graphic designer & developer, it frustrates me that I don’t have a custom bad-ass web site and personal social networking designs. I spend all of my time designing for others and never have enough time to design for myself anymore. It’s unfortunate because the reality is, no matter how many hours I put in each day, I still seem to be getting no-where financially.
The thing that sucks about my field at the moment is that no one is really willing to pay what us designers and developers are worth. In turn, projects take longer to complete and are more difficult because freelancers end up having to take on more projects at a time, at lower costs than normal, in order to pay the bills & survive.
I strongly believe that if clients were willing to pay more, designers could focus more of their attention to the one specific project at hand and not worry about having to take on others just to stay afloat.
Regardless, I took a bit of time I had left over after completing a task and decided to finally design something for myself. Check out my new Twitter Background image and feel free to comment and let me know what you think.
I have uploaded it to the server in case anyone wants to use it as their background. I understand that it’s a personal background and has all my links on it, but if anyone requests a custom made one for use on their page, I will gladly create one for them as time permits.

New Deadstar Tour Dates to be Announced
As the new year rolls in, I’ve been spending my time trying to figure out what’s going to happen as the days fly by. I begin to wonder where the last year’s worth of hard work has gone. Things have been hectic, but finally beginning to come together. After meeting at the studio to help master the new Deadstar Assembly CD, Coat of Arms, we also discussed going back out on tour after it’s release. The release date is planned for the very end of March. This will be close to or on our anniversary of our very first live show. For those of you who know our history, we graced the stage at the Culture Room in Fort Lauderdale Florida on March 30th, 2002! Seems so long ago…
Here’s a sneak peak at our new look & feel and be sure to look out for the upcoming tour dates.
The full tour officially starts Mid-April as dates are coming in faster than ever…

Crazy Deadstar Assembly Fan
Here we go again. I’m going to have a lot of explaining to do on this one.
It’s a long story and this one’s going to take a while so enjoy the pictures below and discuss what you think this is all about. I’m curious as to what first comes to your mind when you see something like this. Below the subject of these messages are my responses back to her. Make sure to check out the time in which the messages were sent to me also. Oh man, there are so many more where these came from. She has been seriously messaging me just about every day for the past 6+ months.
No Neck Coat of Arms
I spent last night at No-Neck studios with Dearborn and Dreggs. We had a hard time trying to decide which song to let the fans preview next. After a conference call with Kriz DK we decided to go with Arm and a Leg. There are just some songs on the record that are so bad ass that we’re going to just wait to show the fans during the CD release show.
No plans of touring as of yet, but it seems all the messages I get from fans these days are about that. We haven’t toured in over a year and we’re all dying to play out again but of course the timing has to be right. It wouldn’t make sense for us to start booking shows again without a finished product. Seems so many bands down here decide to rush their projects just so they can play out and they pay for it in the end. We’re taking the time and making sure we’re 100% happy with where we are at before making the big jump. We survive on flying past the half-assed bullshit that everyone is so quick to put out.
For anyone interested in checking out the new song we just posted just visit our myspace page. Arm and a Leg already has over 600 listens and we just posted it. We’ve been getting great reviews from the fans and labels over seas.
I’m so excited about the new release and I can’t stress that enough. DK should be in town at the end of the month for new product and mayhem. Should be a blast, once again.
This time I’ll try harder to stay out of jail…
