What does "official release date" really mean? Well, nothing for us really. I'm sure as I write this there are kids beating the crap out of each other, fighting for that last available copy that they've been waiting in line for all night. All the while, you ordered yours here, like two weeks ago, and you just finished watching it for the 58th time before school this morning. Hey, not everyone can be so cool. So, for your poor friend whose parents think the internet is a bredding ground for predators and satan worship, this day must be as good as the birth of Christ. Yeah, I said it "we're bigger than Jesus Christ" (well, today at least).
Head on over to the merch page and grab yourself the new issue.
Yes! TVM is encoded to be viewed everywhere on the planet.
If you're really down, you'll pick up both issues together at a discount. Check out all of the sweet sweet sugar in TVM001.

I'd write "This billboard is a bomb!"
Now isn't this something right out of Minority Report? Last month, Mini placed interactive electronic billboards advertising its upcoming new Mini Cooper models at locations in New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Miami, and they're able to read RFID information off a key fob the company's distributed to Mini owners.
The owners themselves specify whatever information (irreverent or otherwise) they want to be shown on the billboards, and when it's transmitted to the billboards, that phrase is displayed up in lights for all to see.
Seems like a pretty good idea until you realize that you're carrying around a tracking device just to have some fun with a billboard or two. Weird. (gizmodo.com)
AM! Still loves Julie, and Brooklyn!
Yes, it's true, we're not all as hip as the Williamsburg kids who walk into light poles because their noses are buried deep inside the new issue of MRR. If we were, we would surely have been at this secret AM! show a few nights ago. One more reason to thank the sweet baby jesus for the internet!"I might be an adult, I'm a minor at heart!"

Seriously, could tv get any better than this? I know, there could be a lot more sex and violence in this commercial for you non-skaters, but if you've ever gotten a hole on the side of your shoe from ollieing, then you know what I mean.For A Mere $7 Million, An Anonymous, Possibly Crappy Record Label Can Be All Yours
(news from idolator.com)
Site Map The music-biz gossip board The Velvet Rope reprinted an intriguing "for sale" listing from Inc. magazine: Apparently, an Illinois-based record label--one that "records and promotes new recordings from established, well known artists as well as purchases existing music catalogs"--is on the block for $7 million. The ad doesn't specify which label is up for grabs, but the consensus seems to be that it's Victory Records, the controversial punk-hardcore-emo haven that's recently experienced legal scuffles with bands Thursday and Hawthorne Heights. If so, we're a little surprised that the label's annual sales are listed as a mere $15 million, as we assumed that straight-edge kids were still putting their babysitting money into the Snapcase back-catalog. Anyway, the listing's after the click-through; you might want to read it quickly, as someone is clearly not happy about the "Victory for sale?" rumors circulating on the web.

There's a comment some guy made that said "if a bomb went off in that studio his entire vinyl collection would have been decimated." I think that sums it all up.Nirvana Talks From the Dead

Atlanta is a Cocaine Town: Live at Leeds!
Atlanta is a cocaine townAdd to My Profile | More Videos
My top three favorite Grabass Charlestons' songs include Atlanta is a Cocaine Town, Sports, and Beer Exile. Video kinda sucks but it sounds pretty good. I don't care, just happy to see that. Plus, there's nothing more inspiring than a "human hero" as opposed to a dog or a fish or a VW Bug.

TYBEE ISLAND, GA SKATEPARK
It seems that they even skate in the Low Country of Georgia. In between the fallen coquina plantations live a bunch of little doods that need a skatepark. Seems that a bunch of old bastards on the city commish think it's a waste of money. So these little doods took action and have started an online petition we can all sign in order to help them out at their city meeting next week.

WHILE YOU WAIT...
While we're all waiting patiently for the next issue to get back from the plant, check out what some of our friends from the upcoming TVM002 are doing.
Mastodon: 2007 US TOUR
Just in case you actually do live under a rock, after you get your copy of TVM002 you'll have found the evil metal of Mastodon undeniably addicting. You'll be craving more Mastodon! And, as our master plan unfolds, you'll have the perfect opportunity to get it, and get it in in your face, live!!! Mastodon will be touring with Converge and Priestess right after the turn of the new year. Like me, your resolution for the new year is probably going to be "listen to more metal." Too easy!

Tour Dates 2007:
Ty Evans does the Skate Fairy
I think it's fair to say that Ty might be obsessed with filming. That's probably bad for Ty's need for sleep, but great for us. He is constantly updating his website, SkateFairy, with the with snippets of his latest adventures with the world's best skaters.
Mike Sieben: Children's Illustrator Gone bad.
When TVM flew first class around the globe from Gainesville to Austin, I personally had no idea that I'd meet a such wonderfully evil artist as Mr. Mike Sieben. Not evil like the 13 year old dude that carves pentagrams on his hands and grows up to be a tattoo artist or serial killer (either/or), but evil as in he draws skulls and images of death on top of all of his Maurice Sendak illustrations when he's eight years old, then grows up to live in a quite suburb with a cookie cutter family that watches "Dancing with the Stars." Meanwhile, dad sits in his studio drawing out his childood fantasies of turning cute teddy bears into dead cute teddy bears in order to have friends to hang out with. It's what I would have done if I could have drawn a lick more than stick figures of skateboarders riding pools and Rat Bones rats in the pages of my mathbook. Go to Mike's website and this will all make sense.
Lucero: I Like My Punk With a Country Chaser.
TVM took a train, first class, halfway around Southern Asia before we realized that Memphis was just a days carride from Florida, Duh! (I'll tell you the story about Mike getting sold into slavery in Thailand later). Once back, we got on a steamship in the harbor of new Orleans and trekked up the Mississippi to the great city of Memphis where we wrangled steer and ate pancakes topped with blueberry vodka. This is how Lucero lives everyday. You can hear it their lyrics and feel it in their tunes. They even been known to make entire wedding parties cry like babies. Don't believe me? Look for yourself.
