Guest Artist on Creatures in My Head
In 2004, Jon had a guest spot on Andrew Bell’s Creatures In My Head blog. While most of the other guest artists took a more “traditional” creature approach, Jon gave us the “You Have No More Money…or Friends” monster. Andrew An anonymous user (see Andrew’s comment below) tagged it with, among other things, “abstract,” “color,” and “lips”. The original post is here.
Sunday-Singalong at Goodbye Blue Monday in Brooklyn
Ready for more of this? This just in from Jon:
Singalong with Anxieteam this coming Sunday night at Goodbye Blue Monday, 1087 Broadway, Brooklyn, New York, from 9pm.
This special event sees the last performance for sometime on the shores of America for the cute cartoon couple.
But wipe those tears away! Through-out the performance, the band will be giving away their first ever CD to ten lucky audience members - for FREE! The CD includes some of their classic pop tunes along with karaoke versions so you too can join in and singalong with Anxieteam! Each CD will be numbered and signed by the band and to further record this momentous giveaway Jim and Jon will draw your portrait on the cover. If you don’t live in NYC, then get a friend to come along instead (with your photograph!).
This is absolutely guaranteed to be a collectors item in the years to come, perfect for you to sell on eBay and retire on the profits. (non-guaranteed by the state of Anxieteam)
See you at Goodbye Blue Monday on Sunday to sing-along and say goodbye (for now) to Anxieteam!
Hopefully the Anxieteam CDs will make their way to Burgerplex for all of us who are currently geographically challenged.
Free Pickle Pig Pins at Burgerplex This Month
Budget blocking you from picking up one of these Pickle Pig Plush Collabs With Felt Mistress? How do you like little, metal and free? These exclusive pickle pig pin badges will be added to any Burgerplex purchase made within the month of June.
Worryknott and Gumps Diecast Metal Pins
Worryknott and Gumps diecast metal pin badges are briefly back in stock at Burgerplex for £3 each. Whereas Jon refers to the method of attachment as a “spikey bit on the back,” we civilized sorts call it a “tie tack.” The Worryknott pin originally accompanied Jon’s resin Worryknott sculpture. These 1-inch Worryknotts are about an inch tall and come in red. On the subject of worry, wise words from the Burgerman:
Worry really does solve nothing. Just think of all the previous times you’ve over worried about something… did it really turn out that bad? It can’t of done too much else you wouldn’t still be here. Focus on the good, not on the possibly bad.
Rock the pin as a reminder.
Lossy Data Lab Swag
As part of the Lossy Data Lab experiment in New York, Hamburg’s heliumcowboy (Jon’s collaborators/conspirators in the project) produced a limited edition T-shirt, buttons and a microfiber cleaning cloth/screen protector for laptops. Only 20 American Apparel shirts were made, and it looks like just girls’ size small is left here. You can pick up up the screen protector directly from Jon for UK buyer £16 / Non UK buyer £20 (inc. P+P) here while supplies last.
Character Badges
Recognize a few of the characters in Jon’s 2008 quartet of badges (which we call pins in the US)? Four lovely 1.5” (35mm) badges for sale to UK buyer £3.50 (inc. P+P) / Non UK buyer £4.50 (inc. P+P) here.
Burger Friends Badges
This set of four Burgerfriend badges was created in 2008 and is still currently available through Concrete Hermit for £4 here.
Hand-Drawn Pins
Jon created these hand-drawn pin badges in 2004. They were originally sold at Wear It With Pride.
