    Really? Thought you were in it for a long haul? Im sure you wont have any problems doing the selling/negotiations. Good luck.

    Leigh thought he would be in it for the long haul....I hoped it wouldn't last for the whole term of the 3 year lease to be honest. I just wanted to make some quick cash and get out of it because I HATE retail (even though I didn't work there)....and I want Leigh to draw. He's been too busy to draw lately and that's bullshit!

    So will he just fully focus on his comics and drawing once the shop's gone then?

  • So I'm listening to this CD that I've found in my stash and it's up to a recording of the "shoe the shoeless" incident.....starts with the "Fuck me in my brain" improv (LOVE IT!!)....is that on Youtube anywhere? I'd love to see it. Ed sounds so angry.....he's so sexy when he's angry:p Scarey, but in a HOT kinda way :D I wanna see it!!!
    OK....I found these 2
    1. FMIMBrain http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH82vz5H-AM&mode=related&search=

    2. Shoe the Shoeless http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH82vz5H-AM&mode=related&search=

    But it's not close enough....I wanna see his face - eyes :eek:
    anyone know of some better footage of this?

    Yes, full focus will be on his comic and this project with the graphic designer.

    He's too talented to be tied to a counter and cash register all day long. He needs to be creative and it's frustrating the hell out of him...which I knew it would but he thought it wouldn't but now a year later he's a bit OVER IT! So I'm like AWESOME, sell it, get a lump sum and draw for a year or two or six!

    That's the hardest part about being an artist (starving artist) you have to do something else to make some $$ while you try to get your name out there, but in the mean time you've got no time to be doing your art....it sucks!
    He's done really well, though to be able to walk out with a tidy profit after only 1 year. The usual saying is to not expect to be making much for the first couple of years. Excellent....EXCELLENT news:D

    Im worried if I tell you you'll have so much money on it that it will distort the market and Ill get a bad price.

    Black fella thingy - a bet with a mate about who it was

    You're so nice and friendly and supportive! :)

    Yes, it's hard being an artist....every job he has he dislikes because the only job he really enjoys is drawing. So I'm like FUCK IT, time to just do your art for a while and screw everything else. Hey, more than likely down the track he'll be a part time stay at home dad and I'll go to my business everyday. Suits me fine.

    We've put the record store on the market and we have 2 people interested! YAY!!! :D

    Leigh's had enough of retail. The main aim was to build it up and sell it down the track so he could live off the profits and draw for an extended period so it's all worked out well. He's now going to do a few projects with a graphic designer and they'll see what happens from then on.

    Hope one of these people buy it soon!
    Obviously they are only interested because you have a load of Ben Harper CD's on order?! :)
