Merry Jewmas/Slutmikah from The WIREforest! Enjoy “Hole in the North Pole” and please check out our friends Michael J. Epstein & Sophia Cacciola’s snappy holiday tune, posted just after ours, and all the rest of the delightful tunes Sleepover Shows is sharing each day. And get a load of Santy Sickert & Taxi(dermy) Claws!

Happy Holidays from Sleepover Shows! http://sleepovershows.com/holidays2011 :

All this week we will be bringing you some original holiday songs from some of our favorite Boston bands. We’ve also asked each band to name a charity for you to donate to this year. We’ve had a great year doing what we love–filming some of our favorite bands from right here in Boston as well as those coming through town. We thought it only right to help bring some joy to others as well.

First up, asking you to please take a look at Zumix, a non-profit whose mission is to help bring music and the arts to under-privileged kids in East-Boston, is Walter Sickert & the Army of Broken Toys. You can find out more about Zumix at their website. Hole in the North Pole…

So I have a bit of bad news.

My fancy technology phone was STOLEN (yes, it sucked) AND ALLLLLL of the photos I’ve had documenting the work I’ve done for the past 3 months are also gone with it.

Unfortunately, the rest of the distressing how to will not be finished with photos…I contemplated trying to finish it without the photos, but I don’t feel like it totally gets the point across if I just explain it.

The above photo is by Justin Moore. Check out more of his photos from ORG: ASYLUM (which was a CRRRAAAZZZZYYY Night!!) 

Stay tuned for more tutorial/how-to/craftershock!

Some things as of late…

Some cheesy photo booth & crackberry camphone pix of WIREhappenings of late.

First is an oldie of Jackie Olivia and i returned from our different gigs 11/11/11! Tee hee. And a week ago Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys filmed a lil’ somethin’ at a certain telly programme. Friday night was Edrie’s bday (Let Edrie eat cake!-themed show at Radio w/ Rick Berlin & Michael J. Epstein Memorial Library— it was swank/swell), and there are appropriately gooberish pix of Jackie and i dressed to look like desserts, though i may have been trying to be Edrie-esque in my wig & through a bleu-Antoinette jojo-filter. What else is new? Last photo is hilarious/awesome book-ends/Russian nested egg Edrie-dolls by Rachel Leah Blumenthal.

The Atom Headpiece.

This could be the strangest thing I’ve come up with. 

It’s an atom headpiece.

It’s not, you know, “to science,” but it’s wearable :)

Walter Sickert and the ARmy of BRoken TOys curated the main auditorium at the Hynes Convention Center for First Night 2011 by presenting “The SteamCRUNK Lounge.”

This photo was taken by the lovely David Aquilina, who has more photos of the evening on his blog.

The Atom Headpiece is being displayed by Amy Roeder.
