This time it's the launch of a free full colour local comic called "The Strip". It's at the Nest Gallery on St. James Street (up the top near the Sidewinder pub) on the 26th April from 8pm. There'll be lots of exhibitors including me and (I think) MacReady. I will also be providing amusement with my shit singer songwriter act. There will be wine, women and quite possibly my Mum and Dad too! Let's Go!

Will it, like, be going on in the day time? I mean, I could get there in the day time.

Starts at 8pm but will be up for a couple of weeks or so I should think. In the daytime.

Actually it'll be on 'til the 31st of May. Long time. By then your kid will probably have left home, Bobboss so not to worry.

Well, that was fun. I particularly enjoyed the fight kicking off whilst I was trying to entertain in my Galactus helmet. Good standard of work. Fine exhibition. Go see.

Best Galactus Helmet Ever. Also fine art, the Amusing Brothers on the stairs is particularly funny.

The amusing brothers having the fight downstairs was even funnier.

"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"

Hahahahahahhahahaha....

But, yeah, a really good standard of work throughout.

Wotwot? A fight? I must know more.

Will be along to have a look over the weekend.

You'll be too late. The fight's finished now...

Oh, right, gotcha.

I followed the shouty guy, he went to the next bar down the road followed by his fussing girlfriend and had a drunken post-fight analysis over a fag. He was twatted. I almost went in to tell him what to do (i.e. be less of a cock) but I thought it wouldn't be diplomatic..

16:32 / 27.04.06

Oh no Quants, I'm sure he would've really appreciated it.

This got a write up in today's Guardian - even the Galactus mask...

HOLY CRAPOLY! Tis I've got to see. I'm off to the newsagents right now!

Quantum - killed by hadrons
(prev. Quantum)

20:15 / 02.05.06

Well? Hmm? What news oh devourer of worlds?

Gary Lactus
(prev. So Speaks Galactus!)

23:32 / 02.05.06

The article started off with a description of me! ME! Interestingly they referred to me as "a man in a Galactus helmet" like everyone should know who Galactus is. Perhaps everyone does...?

Actually sold a bit of art, too! This is clearly my one moment in time when I'm all that I thought I could be, when all of my dreams are a heartbeat away and the answers are all up to me.

Boboss

13:24 / 03.05.06

Do tell more. What section was the write-up in? What justification did they give for writing up such a little exhibition?

Not that your work shouldn't be national news, just curious is all. Was it something to do with the festival?

23:46 / 03.05.06

It was in G2/the media Guardian in their little round up section...

It was mainly about The Strip, Brighton's free comic, but also covered the launch exhibition a little bit at the beginning.

Turns out the guy who started the fight was actually one of the PR guys for The Strip! I guess he was kinda doing his job in that it got people talking about the night.

Boboss

22:43 / 04.05.06

Now I seeeee.

Goodness Gracious Meme

03:02 / 06.05.06

agh. He wasn't the guy who did the C**v book, by any chance?

(I only know who Galactus is thanks to you, F. I am ignorant by Guardians arts section standards.)
