"THE BOUNCING SOULS x HOT WATER MUSIC" Los Angeles 2/13-14/04 18" x 27" • Offset Print • Signed & Numbered . Wow...what a blast from the past. I can't believe this is from 19 years ago!!! This was the 2nd of 3 posters I got to design for @bouncingsoulsnj !!! #TheBouncingSouls were always a favorite band of mine. Aside from creating great and memorable music, they were always NICE people! I have a funny about how I introduced my mom to the band at the 2004 warped tour. Can't wait to tell you that someday... During this period of my life, I was doing a LOT of poster work for the almighty @thetroubadour. It was my art (and business) school. One of the perks of working for Christine and "the Troub" was that I got to go to shows for free! I still remember how much fun these shows were! @hotwatermusicofficial killed it that night as well. At the end of their set, the Souls came out and they all did HWM's #TrustyChords". Here's to hoping I'll get to do more work with @bouncingsoulsnj and @hotwatermusicofficial !!! . . . . . #BouncingSouls #anchorsaweigh #HotWaterMusic #HoplessRomantic #warpedtour #brianewing #illustration #gigposter #brianewingfiendclub #2004 (at The Troubadour) https://www.instagram.com/p/Com79yHut1Q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am so stoked for this new record. I am even more stoked to share it with you. Music is a true extension of me and my life. Sold out shows to 2 people in some dive bar in the Midwest. I might not be famous but I am true to these six strings and my broken lungs. I had a conversation with an older gent the other night, while stunning an old beat up guitar. My heart broke because he was a touring musician for 7 years many moons ago. He is in his 70’s now. He gave it up when he had kids he told me. A price me broke, that he felt he had to stop. The joy on his face when he talked about playing show some 40/50 years ago is the same flame that burns in me every day. What made me even more heartbroken was I offered to have him play something, he turned it down and the voice of my soul said push him. I let it go. I will forever be in regret I didn’t listen. Don’t let the simple voices pass you by. Give yourself a chance to fall, dance, move and create a memory. #believe #trustychords https://www.instagram.com/p/Bng_jipAbvE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1odjqo0zxrblc

Pretty sure I win! Chuck is such a down to earth, friendly guy. We talked fishing for quite a while. Then he put on an amazing set. #fish #fishing #trustychords #binkysadventures
