He’s Outer Space Johnny Cash.

The cover of Star Wars: Tales of the Bounty Hunters. You got your boy Bobba Fett front and center, 4LOM (or Zuckuss? One of those dudes) on the lower right and upper right it’s the bandaged up bounty hunter, Dengar and he’s just Johnny Cash.

Absolute legends.

A show poster for the 50th Anniversary tour for Big Star's #1 Record. It features the cover to #1 Record with a same styled 50 in the center with text around the individual shows that were performed. There are signatures from all the performers around the edges of the star.

And by a few years ago, I mean seventeen years ago. Yeesh.

From crime in haiti comes their second LP, "When We Loved Not Enough". No track names for this this, but the cover is kind of an aqua background featuring wildflowers in red, pink, and white. Someone smarter than me can probably tell you what they are. Photo is from TAD | Photography.

Released on the same day in 2009 it's Love of Truth by Billion Dollar Babies. The album cover is a black and white picture and features a man with a dark beard and wearing a flowery unbuttoned shirt. He's holding an AK by the fore grip and a child is cuddled up to him

Picture for context and also for fun. Funtext?

So there are several clairins up there and holy crap those are a lot harder to get than they used to be. A bottle of Hampden Estate hanging out in it's box along with like 3 bottles of Foursquare I'm almost scared to touch. Also a bottle of Havana Club. Oh, and a hula girl. All of this is on a deep oaky woodstained shelf in against a Mermaid blue painted ceiling.

I’m reaching out to Mitch McConnell to get his take now.

A shitty low effort screen grab of someone’s ooky spooky Ouija board. I can’t tell if it’s AI, but the original picture is so low effort that this ALT text cannot possibly lower the already embarrassing bar that the original picture set.

Some time ago, a guy came out to service our HVAC. While discussing the state of the system, he complimented a photo of “your family friend”. It was the sleeve to Bonnie Tyler’s Faster than the Speed of Night set up from playing it earlier. We’ve referred to her as our family friend ever since.

In Al’s defense, he doesn’t have Nazi tattoos. By the same token, anyone injecting Al Franken into the conversation long after he’s gone?

Still from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade where Dr. Jones is urging Indiana Jones to let go of the Grail. Unrelated, but man, Last Crusade really did Marcus Brody dirty, didn’t it?

Grace Under Pressure by Rush. It was my first CD from the band, so I’m glad I finally picked it up on vinyl.

The album Grace Under Pressure by Rush. A white album sleeve with a section of sky falling. There’s a bald silver skinned humanoid looking dude on the left hand side of the sleeve looking at the what not going on.

Johnny Cash - At Folsom Prison.

The cover of At Folsom Prison. Cash is wearing a dark suit(duh) with a guitar hanging from a sling and singing into a microphone. He’s sweating, but he’s still the coolest dude in any room he’s in.

I’ll stick with the OG.

Brian W.@pyynk· Jun 17

The same from Baby Driver where they’re robbing the bank near Perimeter Mall (look just trust me it’s Perimeter Mall) and Bats just found out that unless you spell things out explicitly for JD that you end up with a Mike Myers mask for your bank job instead of a Michael Myers mask. “It should be the Halloween mask!” he’s saying with a look that could kill. And yeah, he probably will later.

I've got several, thanks to @americanaquarium.bsky.social and @rhettmiller.bsky.social, but my signed copy of Bela Lugosi is the jewel of my signed LPs.

A copy of the 12" from Small Wonder Records of Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus. The album cover is the shadow of a bat on a white background with a fireplace mantle. It's been signed by Peter Murphy (who initially misspelled my first name and then circled it for some reason) and David J.

Party line?

Shit is not looking good for Batman.

Screen showing two recently added movies, Reign of Fire and Batman Begins. Due to similar coloring and similar enough lighting, the way the images are laid out, it would appear a dragon is breathing fire on Batman.

Simon’s legacy might be the number of times I’ve recommended Good Owners, Great Dogs to people. Miss you buddy.

A goofy gold pit mix is holding a squeaky plush bat dog toy in his mouth and looking up at the camera. Because of white coloration in his face, it looks like he has eyebrows pointing down that make him look like he’s saying “Please love me” and yeah, I always will buddy.

Having an extended Coffee and Fuck This morning while listening to an incredibly mellow EP by Chrome Castle.

A digital player showing the Chrome Castle EP Forts. The album art is this super mod looking collection of shapes. It is VERY cool. The track playing is Hidden People.

Was visiting Pittsburgh over the weekend and my first thought of seeing this place was, I absolutely need to take a picture of this for @darthbluesky.bsky.social

A picture of a restaurant in Pittsburgh named “Mr. Fries”. Their mascot kind of looks like Frylok from Aqua Teen Hunger Force and the windows are full of faux potatoes. I mean FULL.

Another picture of Mr. Fry’s. Again, a restaurant in Pittsburgh named “Mr. Fries”. Their mascot kind of looks like Frylok from Aqua Teen Hunger Force and the windows are full of faux potatoes. I mean FULL.

Salute.

I know it’s been a minute, but for anyone who might’ve forgotten? Lynn Varley is fucking incredible.

From Sin City - That Yellow Bastard. Hartigan is standing with his back to a big angry ball of an orange red sun hanging in a filthy yellow sky. Hartigan is a black empty void standing with his revolver at his side. The art is a killer, but Varley’s colors are what sells the piece.

It’s not super out there and the window is rapidly closing, but George Clooney as King Faraday.

Goddamn American Treasure George Clooney. Looking stylish, but relaxed in a white collared shirt and blue blazer.

King Faraday. DC’s answer to Marvel’s top secret agent, Nick Fury. He’s wearing a camel overcoat on top of a black suit, black shirt, and black tie and holding an automatic pistol at a 45 degree angle. He looks suave as hell and damn near like younger George Clooney.

Brian W.@pyynk· May 8

Can confirm - the album is a delight. The point of comparison I missed earlier is The Sundays.

Silk Daisies debut LP with a flower on a pink background. There’s a hype sticker on the upper right hand corner.

Brian W.@pyynk· Apr 27

That logo looks somewhat ... familiar.

Jack Kirby sketching in his Incredible Hulk cameo. He’s got a look on his face that’s fifty/fifty “I’m interested in what you’re saying.” or “Kid, you’re a moron.”

He is risen indeed.

Optimus Prime from the season 3 episode of the Transformers, "The Return of Optimus Prime".

Yeah, that’s definitely not what I have. The guy I got it from at a local con swore it was a production piece of some sort, but there wasn’t any real way to validate his claims at the time and certainly not now since it’s been so many years.

A Batman Beyond sketch on thin yellow paper. There’s a notation like a b with a dash and a couple of zeroes that’s been circled? to the right of Terry’s leg.

But I mean, c’mon, look at this. It totally belongs in a 150 year old or so adventurer/tiki bar!

With @uglyfish25.bsky.social outta town, I celebrated by reorganizing the record collection and playing Nevermind very very loud.

LP setup in a wooden built in with a small selection of records of which the bigger chunk are to the right and out of sight (yes really). Above that is a smattering of books, including several on music and film.

Brian W.@pyynk· Mar 22

Yeah, the Frenz era was when I really started digging Spider-Man and his Hobgoblin is spooky as hell.

A recreation of the cover of Amazing Spider-Man featuring Spidey and Hobgoblin crashing through a window as Harry Osborn is trying to work. Spidey is in his classic red and blue suit and Hobgoblin is in the orange and chain mail. Hobgoblin’s hood is up so you can’t see his face, just his glowing red eyes.

Johnny Depp:

John Mulaney from the standup special "The Comeback Kid" talking about the time he met Bill Clinton and said that with Rumours, Clinton let us know who he was right away.

Happy Amateur Sketch Day to all who celebrate.
