One of my favorite things to do with downtime anywhere, let alone at San Diego Comic-Con, is an exquisite corpse. Each creator takes a turn making marks—as little or as much as they like—on the page. This one was done waiting for the SDCC Masquerade to start. Credit: me, @hellokellykuhl, @missewon & @cup_o_teag.

Back in 2004 I posted photos and MP3 of this record to my blog on artlung.com. My mom left a comment “Joe, you were only 2 years old when you started reading and playing the phonograph!!!! we lived in student housing in Riverside 😉 Love, Mom” I have always loved and listened to recorded music. I cared deeply about assembling thoughtful sequences of music and sounds onto cassette tapes for myself and for my friends. Particularly @missewon and @chrisgreazel. 1989 was the year my vinyl collection stalled, I had great stuff but I bought David Byrne’s “Rei Momo” on compact disc. I still bought extended remixes on vinyl, and the one I miss most is green vinyl 12″ of A Tribe Called Quest’s “I Left My Wallet in El Segundo.” Most of that collection has since been sold, lost, broken, or (mostly) stolen from a storage locker in Moorpark, California. But Joseph, Joseph I’ve kept. The #SMARCHVINYLCHALLENGE prompt today is “I forgot I had this” (thanks @brandudesrecordvault) so here’s MY NAME RECORD featuring the track “Joseph Joseph” which is really catchy. I loved playing this song. I really listened and internalized the song and every aspect. “Vic Marantz” is the singer and I would recognize that voice anywhere. I think I realized as a kid that when they first say the name “Joseph” that’s an edit, the basic track is shared for other records, when I look at ebay or discogs I see Bob, Christine, Annie, Heather, Chad, all probably produced in the same scheme. And there’s a little coda by Captain Kangaroo at the end. The last time I saw live music was at the MTL Concert Venue and Lounge in Riverside where @brandudeworms was playing the drums with @thecineramas with aplomb and panache. Here’s hoping we can all get to some live music before the year is out. #MARCHVINYLCHALLENGE

Back of my current notebook which has gotten plenty of use this past week. Finally. Featuring stickers by @sdpubliclibrary @thebettyz @steve_mannion_comics @nicholasdanger @shecantdraw @niceytime plus those are trolley tickets from 1981 @missewon gave me. I love an old artifact and I love making new artifacts.

Erin, animated. We think the last time we went to Ichiban together was sometime in the 90s in case you wonder about how long we’ve been pals.
