Surprise! More Part-Time Whore stuff. This post is mainly flyers and random shit that related to the band Part-Time Whore. OK. This might be the last of the stuff in my collection but if I end up posting more shit you won’t get pissed off at me will you?
The photos included here are the only photographs I’ve ever seen of PTW. The sepia toned photos were taken by Checko during a Halloween show. I was dressed as Harpo Marx and I can only speak for myself. I don’t remember who gave me the color photos included below. Thanks to whoever deserves it. Not sure why there are no color photos of Judd in this collection.
After we pressed the album we were convinced we would never be able to get rid of all 500. Last time I checked I noticed I’ve got about 10-15 left at my folks house. We did a lot of trades with other bands and labels and we later started a modest distro of our own filling it up with trades from other bands and labels. Here’s a letter from Jello Biafra of Alternative Tenacles. He traded a couple of his records for ours which was mighty white of him!
Dierdre Luzwick let us use some of her artwork on the inner sleeve of the record. Here is the letter she sent in response to receiving the record upon it's completion. Her art is amazing and she comes across as a real, soulful, person. She should be more well known than she is. Thankfully she has embraced the internet and you can view her work online for free. Go here and be amazed. Miss Luzwick and Mr. Biafra both sent hand typed letters using manual typewriters. That might be where their similarities end.
This was a fun benefit show we played for Food Not Bombs Las Vegas. Bunko Squad was awesome. I never heard from them again. They appeared to be a high school ska band replete with crazy looking skinheads dancing along to their set.
Once again thank you to the Independent Publishers Resource Center in PDX for the use of their scanner. There may be more Part-Time Whore stuff coming. I can never tell what's coming down the pike.
Oh yeah I found the original lyric sheet for the PTW demo.
Chad; No idea if you will actually see this but I wanted you to know that my sister Dierdre Luzwick died on January 4. She had advanced COPD and had been struggling for some time with her breathing and limited lung function but she remained a piece of cake to the end and always got a kick out of her artwork having been used on a record jacket!
