Showlist for January 23rd 2009

Hey all-

Well, the buzz of the Inauguration has come and gone. A few highlights for me included the Manifest Hope show put on by Shepard Fairy. For those who are not sure, he is the guy who made the original Hope poster of Obama that has become the icon of the campaign. The original is now hanging the Smithsonian American Art Museum. The show was great.

The other highlight is this video.
Clever and funny.

I am off. See ya next week. Oh, more submissions, please.

later,
pete
