Glad I didn’t buy this at the last two cons…tempted…but always felt gassy at the time for some reason.
Must be my natural aversion to cheese.

(mannnnnnn…I was SO hoping to do this with some local acts – in relation to the ‘next project’ – but wasn’t sure if the interest in Cam Concerts would prove to be high profile enough. Guess this answers my question :D)
FROM CNN.COM – ENTERTAINMENT
LONDON, England — A British singer has signed up by a major record label after broadcasting live performances from her living room on the Internet.
Sandi Thom, 24, is now on the books of RCA/SonyBMG after signing with the label at her flat on Monday night.
She built up a daily audience of more than 100,000 people around the world.
Speaking on British television, Sandi said she could not believe what had happened and that her life had “changed dramatically.”
“I don’t think I have quite realized it just yet,” she told GMTV.
“It has obviously changed for the better. “I have managed to get massive amounts of exposure through using the Internet and that is something that people have struggled to do for years.”
Several record labels had approached the aspiring star following her Webcasts, which were broadcast on 21 consecutive nights.
RCA label director Craig Logan said: “Sandi is a very talented artist with an already unique story.
“We’re very excited that we’re now going to be a part of that story as she develops into a major artist.”
Kevin Smith hurts my ass.
April 3rd, 2006If I EVER tense my cheeks and force out a Saints sequel due to a lengthy bout of creative/career constipation akin to that witnessed above…?
Then just shoot me in the face. Please.
I’ll even buy the bullets, polish the barrel, and deep-throat the fucking thing.
You just have to twitch a little.
Support a Saint – Aaron G’s book is here!!!

If you can’t help your friends, then what GOOD are you???
Aaron Golden (CotC to oldschool forum freaks) has been around BS since the beginning…and by that I mean genesis, folks. When I wanted to bounce early story arcs off of someone, I’d bend his ear first. When I was trying to find just the right name for everyone’s favorite troubled Arab, he brought the goods. And when I sought a respectful and gut-given chapter critique – mere hours after a new one was launched? His was the review I most craved.
So the least I can do – the most minimal of thanks, all things considered – is to trumpet his first officially published work – SWANN. Seriously – the guy got on Amazon before us (well, maybe Tobias beat him to it) , and apparently he’s already cranking through hundreds of copies and receiving generous dollops of kudos and critical acclaim!
The reviews are passionate and strong – reflecting the work within. I’ve known Aaron since this idea began to take serious root, and I’ve watched its creation literally transform him. Poetic, painful, and often profound, he has a unique style that mirrors a crystalline intellect…and a chaos-ridden heart.
I think more than a few of you can relate – this project being a blinding beacon of angst, and all – so buy the damn thing already. He deserves your fiscal support on the sheer courage and creative efforts alone.
And on a final note, peeps – Kim and I are off this weekend to the big Seattle Con‘ to spread the saintly gospel and raise a few glasses with old friends. Expect a newsletter early next week with show feedback, summer contest info (hmmmm?), and a hefty revelation or two…
Oh – and treats. Don’t forget the treats.
Word is Bond.

Just got a mail from forum lurker Shai-hulud with a sweet treat attached – seems that the often brilliant (but just as often ‘grumpy’) Warren Ellis has allowed a particular Live Journal group to scan and post one of his most beautiful Transmetropolitan stories – Another Cold Morning – in its entirety!
