Happy Friday the 13th!

Our friend, Dustin Timbrook, is having his art show "Picturesque" on November 14th (tomorrow!) from 6 to 9pm at Lowe Mill. Dustin has been making promo videos for his show, and they are hilarious! Last night he shot the last promo video and Vertical House Records was a 'star' along with several of our friends.

You can watch the video here:



Thanks again Dustin for letting us be a part of your Magical Promo Videos!

So wow, Eargasms #6 has been out for a month and I'm just now blogging about it. I think I know the problem. I've fallen in love with WordPress, so I'm searching for the perfect template (I have wasted spent hours upon hours) and then I'm going to transfer this blog to our soon to be theverticalhouse.com/blog address. And then I think I'll be updating lots more. And following more people and making friends with peeps in the biz. You know, the usual.
