I ordered us both a 12" DW and she was the lucky one(I was heading over to buy it from her for $100, but alas, when I got there, she had eBay up on her computer... Damn It!!!)... She ordered the LI herself and got a Tri(her second record from TMR)... I wonder if they know she is a gorgeous Red Head??? I am only mildly bitter about the Triple Decker...

"I recently completed the artwork for "Love Interruption", the debut single from Jack White's upcoming LP Blunderbuss. In a bizarre turn, I'm actually credited as co-writer for the lyrics on the B-side, "Machine Gun Silhouette". This came about from a short exchange of emails concerning a taxidermy auction which Jack's alchemical mind transformed into a song.

People are recieving their copies of the single and reading the actual record of electronic missives included as an insert. I've been getting lots of folks asking about the availability of the shirt mentioned in the emails that inspired the song title.

The designer of the shirt is Dan Stiles (he also did one of my favorite posters for a 2008 Yeasayer show at The Gorge). You can pick it up at http://www.danstiles.com/t-shirts.html. If you buy one, tell Dan that Rob sent you and you'll get 0% discount. Any ornithologists who buy the single, please know that I recognize I should have said "crest" instead of "comb" in the emails on the insert, but I thought it important to leave it as originally hastily written, half-remembered avian nomenclature and all.



The most stressful thing about the single was my sudden requirement to register with BMI for publishing rights. I haven't had to name anything in a while really since Animal Rummy, which I still cringe at. I didn't think Jack would appreciate having "Rob Jones is the BALLZ Music (BMI)" on the back of his record, so I went through a list with my wife and Tiffany Steffens at Monotone as my sounding boards. After that groan session, I compiled another list and "Incitatus" was the least horrible while still appropriate choice in context to the situation.
