Shrigley Anecdotes

David Shrigley has long been providing laughter and insight for us at G&G with his caustic and clever scribbles and scrabbles. I have been using his TWAT card for all occasions of gift giving and apologies, gleefuly attended his show Brain Activity at YBCA this past summer, and now I am in a state of great anticipation for the time I will have when I purchase the next issue of  The Thing Quarterly to which he is the contributor. I am curious as to what “useful” object he arrives at.  In the meantime though, I will devour everything my search engine provides in the name of this Scottish friend.

Shadow Wave

We have a full blown crush on Robert Patterson. Not the actor, though this one could break a couple hearts up on the silver screen too, but the RP here in San Francisco who is the creative mastermind behind Revolver, Voyager, Ken Ken Ramen, Suika, Naka-Muguro and now designs and produces his owns menswear line Dillon Montara. Geeze this guy has a knack for making good things happen! We are so very very pleased to show off his new fall line and begin what will surely be an ongoing love affair between the two of us. Please join in this Saturday evening Nov 10th from 6pm-8pm and see/feel/experience these sharp designs, heavy Japanese fabrics and swoon worthy stylings of Dillon Montara.

Hello It’s Me

Good o’l Todd…

Hello, it’s me
I’ve thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something’s wrong
There’s something here that doesn’t last too long
Maybe I shouldn’t think of you as mine

Seeing you
Or seeing anything as much as I do you
I take for granted that you’re always there
I take for granted that you just don’t care
Sometimes I can’t help seeing all the way through

It’s important to me
That you know you are free
‘Cause I never want to make you change for me

Think of me
You know that I’d be with you if I could
I’ll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

It’s important to me
That you know you are free
‘Cause I never want to make you change for me

Think of me
You know that I’d be with you if I could
I’ll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

Think of me…
Think of me…
Think of me
