Dick Clark's Ball Does It

We're in a countdown, folks. The weekend is here, marking a very fast approaching CRAZY 4 CULT show opening Tuesday night. We were mentioned in Variety today (as well as Campus Circle), so the press is building. But Variety? That's gotta be a first for an art show, right? Oh, I got this picture from the Film Freak the other day, which also will somewhat reveal the final piece from Jeff McMillan, which you see a rough draft of on the shows' postcard. It's Leo the Film Freak, Scott Mosier, Me and Kevin:



That piece is totally incredible. It has to be seen to be believed. And you'll see it soon.

Besides that, I'm more stressed that an Armenian man making an arm waxing appointment. For the record, I'm allowed to say that as I am half Armenian (but full hairy). The work is being dropped off as I write this, and each one is more impressive. Some obscure movies represented? How about Better Off Dead? Yup. TWO DOLLARS.

Don't miss this show.

Central Webcasting

Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier in all their glory getting down for CRAZY 4 CULT. A few webcast clips below and I'll selfishly highlight the parts about us for the ADD inflicted.

Clip 1 - Hear Kevin say he may have liked "Step Up" because he took a great dump before he saw it, then see some art show love around 8 minutes. They say some super nice shit around 11 and 13 minutes that may have to become my answering machine. Jen Rarey, Misha, Jeff McMillan, Mahfood all get checked - so let's assume they're smiling.



Clip 2 - Kevin calls Jeff McMillan's piece the "Mona Lisa of Geek Art" to kick it off. He hints that one cult director with the initials "Q.T." might be at the opening at 3:30, Kevin promotes the Simpsons x Vans series (just cause he likes cool shit, not because he's paid to do it) at 4:30, a caller promotes the gallery with confusion at about 10 minutes, Kevin makes me jealous by admitting he owns a Haring at 11:00 and then blows my mind by saying he has a 12 foot commission from Gottfried Helnwein of his kid's face.



This one's gonna be a lot of fun. Remember - July 17th!

The Radio Star Is Back From The Dead

So there's our first peak into the CRAZY 4 CULT show with Kathie Olivas and her Golden Goose conquering spoiled brat from the Gene Wilder Willy Wonka. And YES, they are ALL this good.

Speaking of CRAZY 4 CULT - on Saturday night, July 7th, at 7 PM on 97.1 Free FM Talk, Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier will be promoting the Cult exhibit on the Leo Quinones "Film Freak" show. Those in LA can tune in with their radios, while those who wanna listen on the web can tune into 971freefm.com, where there will also be a LIVE WEBCAST in order to see Kevin's shorts while he's talking. Make sure to tune in, as rarely do LA art shows get promoted on CBS radio stations. This will also be filmed by the REELZ channel for a later broadcast, so do your hair nice.
