it’s about fuckin’ time

i had this marketing idea back when we moved a shop up a couple miles on burnet road…

…and again in the covid times, but we didn’t need it at that stage.

but it was ignored. and finally, it wasn’t – i just had to take it outside of my current secondary (formerly primary) gig…

i hope this works for them! they’re really rad folks (and tremendous artists) and are situated on east sixth street around plenty of bars. i’ve always pointed out that 99.9% of bars, if they have coasters, never pay for them. they never have the logo of the bar on them any more. they’re always some liquor or beer ad, so most bars are used to getting stacks of em for free and just tossing them down…so why not just waltz in and hand them some? free usable stuff for them, advertising for the shop near by, it’s win/win.

(it should be noted in my original idea it would say something like, “if you stop at two, come on through…if you’re drowning your sorrows, come see us tomorrow!” or something to that effect. i’m pretty responsible when it comes to not wanting drunk fucks to get tattooed)
