www.cafepress.com is dope! You can make your own shirt starting off at 9$ by simply sending them a picture so people got real creative with it, I saw some shirts with dogs, cats, fraternities, comics, tv shows, movies and even ones for special occasions like St Patricks' Day and Chinese New Year! You HAVE TO check it out!

Zazzle will be the store that houses our t-shirts and they'll be available on the Willie Beamen website www.steaminbeamen In the meantime just browse through the images and listen to DROWNING!!

Where you get that at???

I've been on break letting 09 settle down into its final sunsets back home in Worcester and of course I found myself bored and ventured out for a redbox. Me and my brother were looking for Inglorious Basterds and something I cant remember at the moment and I stumbled across what was one of my surprise favorite movies of the past year; The Hangover. By now everybody should have watched this so I will spare plot details but on my second viewing I noticed Alan's t-shirt which is a dope t-shirt he wears most of the movie. It's a gray graphic t-shirt with an orange sunset with a flock of birds flying off a tree that has grown over a skeletal structure of a man. Its a dope t-shirt but really came to my attention because its a hippie t-shirt and I just found out the graphic has been used as a billboard and as an ad for bush shelters it is Alan the goofy one that is wearing it. I actually have seen the shirt in an Urban Outfitters location but I found it at teenormous.com peep.

I have never been to France but the French have influenced my life in many ways from the French Kiss, French Fries and crepes damn I love crepes and even Napoleon too he is a short man's idol lol. Two years ago when I moved to Atlanta I was looking for some musical inspiration while working on some production and while listening to some Daft Punk I stumbled upon another French import Justice; an electronic music duo made up of Gaspard and Xavier two cool ass motherfuckers. Their album Cross will be in my rotation for years to come its a mixture of all types of genres of music blended with synths and chopped up fragments of basslines and riffs. Their single D.A.N.C.E had a dope-ass video which is the subject of my post, the video consists of the the pair walking from the "waist up" and having interchangeable morphing t-shirts. Along with being a catchy song (Jackson 5 sample) the t-shirts shown are a testament to the creativity that indie bands and culture always grow upon that I am drawn to. If I could I would have 99.99% of those designs as t-shirts I would a happy man. The myraid of designs come courtesy of Jonas and Francois graphic designers for Ed-Banger Records the label Justice is under. So check out the video you've probably seen its two years old by now and you have got to love and appreciate the creativity of the tees showns, I am now on a personal treasure hunt to find if these shirts were ever printed.
