AHHHHHHHHHH!!! EEEEEE!!! OOOOMMMMIGODDDDDD!!! (read like a crazed, screaming, teenage Beatles fan)
I found a new group I totally dig. The Pipettes! I'd just about turn straight for them, they're that dreamy.
After listening to the new Peaches album all month (and loving it), I needed a break from the tough, bad-ass act. (don't we all sometimes?) It was then that I chanced upon the Pipettes. They're a girl group from the UK, who sound like they've been brought to the future from the sunny, wholesome, 60's girl-group era.
Don't let their retro stylings fool you though – I think they should be considered post-retro. They're more spunky and individually unique than those smiling "fem-bot-esque" do-wop singers from the past.

they sound soo mod retro!! thanks!
I'm curious now, Justin-- I want to check out Peaches as well as The Pipettes! I'm sure I'd be willing to turn straight for them as well. Wait--I AM straight!
Hey you guys, I'm glad you're curious about this band. I wouldn't have posted about them if I didn't think they were REALLY peachy keen! And Ward, you can check out Peaches, but I'm not sure if her music is something you would dig. She might turn you OFF women!
Some lovely birds there I do say!

alsoo...i wanted to ask u a technical question...

i dunno if u use photoshop or ill, but i really wanna kno cuz i couldnt figure it out.
sorry.
toodles:)
hobo - they're lookers alright! I think all girls have cooties, but I'd switch for them...maybe. Well, at least I'll listen to their music.
v - I love hearing from ya. Your comments always crack me up. I didn't know you were a Peaches listener! Fun! She's diiiiiirty, isn't she?? Anyway, I warned Ward, so we'll see what he thinks! :>
Oh, and thanks for my motion clip compliment! Miss ya!
aliie - You are SO sweet. I really appreciate it! I can't get enough of the HUMOR on your blog! You definitely have a way with words. As far as your technical question, I'm embarrassed to say that I don't know the answer! I use Illustrator a lot, but I've yet to play with its textures. I trust Photoshop more for textures. You can get them more naturally (I think). But to help you, I'm sure if you type "textures in Illustrator" into Google, you'll find some sort of tutorial, right?
Hahaha...thanks v!!! No, YOU ARE the most idolicious! ^_^
That's cool that you stumbled across that photo. You're just gettin' all around these blogs I guess. You're gonna have to start one! You'd be a great person for it! Your art always inspired me.
I miss ya, and I miss Atlanta. And please, leave as many comments as you want in a day!
