CLOWN MOVIES INVADE THE BACKSEAT FILM FESTIVAL & A NEW COMIC STRIP!

Howdy there my famous frolicking friends,

This week, I wanted to let you all know about something stupendously super cool! My clown-noir extravaganza short movie “A CLOWN CAROL” is screening at one of the east coasts most awesome film festivals, Saturday March 14th at “The 2009 Backseat Film Festival”. Not only is it screening along side “Dead Sucks” the vampire horror comedy directed by Elias of Biff Juggernaut Productions (Elias also plays Bobo the Clown in A CLOWN CAROL), but Little Jane Rose, (Blight the Clown’s comic strip nemesis) is also screening her new short called “Heading Home” and my wacky friend Ben Jurin is also showcasing his movie “Even”.

The awesomeness doesn’t stop there! My crazy little clown movie looks like it is going to be the last movie that screens before the days main event! The amazing filmmaker Adam Rifkin, director of great movies like, “The Dark Backward” & “Detroit Rock City” will be presenting his new move, “Homo Erectus”!

Come out to the fest if you can, I will be there all weekend long, so if you ever wanted to chat with me about my wacky clown movies, just find me! Or email me and let me know you are coming!

Also, Blight the Clown is back this week in an all new Missing Adventure!

Howdy,

I have a bunch of events coming up this week, my band THINGS OUTSIDE THE SKIN is playing a show Tuesday night (TONIGHT) at Otto’s Shrunken head to celebrate the inauguration of Obama and two of my friends birthdays. Later in the week a play that I created a bunch of video for called THE SPIN CYCLE is beginning a 3 week run and I am also posting some fun never before posted photos from a trip I took to California. Enjoy!

There is no new comic this week because I have been going crazy busy with the SPIN CYCLE videos and my new clown movie, hopefully I will get a new comic out next posting.
