Ssalefish GSO First Look #171 for 8.12.20
We won Geeksboro’s May the 4th Be With You edition of virtual pub trivia!
Please join me in wishing Colton a very happy birthday! He took a much needed day off today and went to the zoo in Asheboro only to get stuck in the rain! Can you think of a more Colbert situation? But that said, I never thought once I got married I would have a regular roommate again, but that all changed for six weeks this spring, and while I’m glad I have free reign of my basement again, even after spending all of that time together, I can say you’d be hard pressed to find a more earnest dude!
Next week’s Free Comic Book Summer offerings are:
Blade Runner #1 - Titan Comics
Critical Role & Norse Mythology - Dark Horse Comics
Hillbilly Lizard of Rusty Creek Cave - Albatross Press
Little Lulu No Boys Allowed - Drawn & Quarterly
Super Mercado Mix Tape - Oni Press
I’m not super happy with my tone on this cover of blink-182 Greatest Hits b-side “Not Now” (I’m still getting used to my new NYC Tech 21 VT Bass DI I got myself for my birthday), or even my playing, but I feel like it’s been a few months since I posted any music and I’ve gotta get myself back on the horse.
