Two Cool Hi-Fi Posters
It’s like that t-shirt you were always jealous of your friend for having. You know the one I’m talking about. It’s the one that said “Famous Guitars”, and it had drawings of Eddie Van Halen’s Frankenstein or Rick Nielsen’s multi-necked Hamer. There was also a “Famous Drumkits” one with Kreutzmann and Hart’s two-man kit or Terry Bozzio’s tom-tom explosion. Gosh, those were cool.
Well now you can be that guy but with the famous hi-fis.

Something magical. Trevor Powers of Youth Lagoon might even be a wizard.

You Have Been Poked by Jim Thiel
"So what are you doing this Friday?" my father asked, trying to elicit information I could tell he already knew.
