From Tim:

Art news updates:

I will be part of a group show at Gallery Lombardi that opens in march here in
Austin.

Lindsey Khun has asked me to be part of the show he is having in Denver in the
Fall.

I just did a big murral of Doc Boggs for Mike at Sweatbox. I think its the biggest thing I have ever painted to date.

I am waiting on word right now if I have been one of the folks chosen for an artist residency at the Museum Of Modern Art in Dublin. If I get accepted, I will be in Ireland for the summer! (I hope I hope!!!)

The Fecal Face site and the Needles and Pens site have fotos and blogs up on
the show that Rich Jacobs and I had in San Francisco. It opened in December.
There is also blogs and fotos on the Fecal Face site about the group show they
just had here at O Kay Mountain. On that blog, there are photos of our house
and where I paint. And while on that site go to the podcast of Rich and I. There is also photos and a youtube clip of the show in San Fran up at Needles and Pens site.

I also want to give a shout out and a big THANK YOU to Skyler Fell who fixed my
button accordion! and Andrew from Needles and Pens who drove me to her shop
(AccordionAppocolypse)... also Warren for the return trip.

the story (sad smile)...Friday was rainy all day and I made the mistake of wearing my desert boots with the creepe souls. Both Rich and I were loaded down with art and instruments. We were on the bus and it shifted into a gear and sort of shot forward and i slid and fell back and snapped off the wood bar under the buttons on my accordion. It was pretty heartbreaking since its the most expensive instrument I have ever bought. I took it to a woman there (Skyler Fell) and she fixed it overnight! and I had it in time for the show and was able to play with my friends and the Irish session I had set up for the show! (thanks Daniel for helping with that!) Really great. Its got a battle scar now but that gives it character and soul
(big smile) happy ending!

Slowboy is doing a book on the solo show that happened in Germany in October.
They also have fotos up on their site of the show.

Music updates:

The MonkeyWrench record will finally be out on Birdman Records late Feb. The
date had been Feb.12 but now its a little later in the month. There is talk of
shows but until I find out about Ireland, I can't commit to anything for the
summer.

I am now part of a music collective known as "If Bricks Had Wings". Our first "show" was january 12th , at the opening of the group show at O Kay Mountain.John has fotos of us up at his blog on the Fecal Face site. We will be playing March 13th at the Gallery Lombardi show.

There are two dark videos up on YouTube of the RioRita sessions that have been going on here in Austin on tuesday.These were shot on New Years day and the sound is great and thats whats important ... not the folks playing but the music! (smile) here is the info my friend wrote up when he put them up on that site:

"The quality is pretty poor, but just as well, we don't want to scare the children and small animals. I've listed everyone's name in Irish to protect the innocent... erm, I mean guilty."

Sugar Hill.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2nrYeNeWh4
Liza Jane.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3nD0tirG5w

When you listen to this, you will get a good idea of what If Bricks Had Wings
is doing.

I will be going into the studio (Sweatbox) next weekend with Kyle from SugarShacks new band called the Welfare Mothers (i think thats the name?) The Dexateens (Ala.), the Crazed Farmers (Slov.), and Chet and Craigs new band
Silver Lion's 20/20 (which I am doing the covers for as well) ... all want me to record them at some point in the near future.

The stuff I did with Rich Jacobs may be coming out and I will be recording with If Bricks Had Wings soon.

In the last issue of Arthur magazine, from New York, Byron Coley and Thurston Moore included Tim Kerr in their "Bull Tongue: 80 Goddamn Good Things of 2004" column. This is what they had to say: "19 - TIM KERR ’s paintings. After many years focusing mostly on things musical, Austin’s greatest citizen has returned to painting, and the results are fantastic. His portraits of musicians and radical cultural figures have great powerful uses of color and form, all underpinned by strong political and musical conviction. Great shit.". A downloadable pdf version of the complete issue can be found here.

Twenty two new paintings were added added to the Art section of the Gallery and more photos were added in Tim's photo gallery, courtesy of phographers Aubrey Edward and David Earl Noe.

"Drawing To An End..."
December 03 - December 19, 2004
Opening reception: Friday, December 3, 6-10pm

Foundation Gallery opens below ground level with "Drawing to an End", an
exhibition of drawings related to time, featuring fifteen artists of
Foundation Gallery's "past, present and future".

Artists participating in the exhibition are: Frank Brenner, Nick Butcher,
Craig Dransfield, Chris Duncan, Justin Fines, Sayre Gomez, Dan Grzeca,
Tim Kerr, Russ Pope, Mark Price, Matthew Rodriguez, Jay Ryan,
Serigraphie Populaire, Patrick Walsh III, and Andrew Zbihlyj.

These artists have previously shown with the gallery or will exhibit work at
the gallery in the upcoming year. The matter of "drawings" has become a
subjective object and process and Foundation Gallery is proud to present
fifteen artists all with an unique perspective on the notion of the drawing.
Appropriate to the season, wrapping up another year, the artists were given
a loose, universal theme of time to work with. The theme carries on as we
are drawing to an end of the first full year for Foundation Gallery and
beginning our second exciting year of solo and group shows. Check our
website for updates www.foundation-gallery.org

Foundation Gallery, 700 North Carpenter Street BN, Chicago, Illinois 60622,

According to Tim, the recording of Alex Cuervo's new band Brotherhood of Electricity at Sweatbox went really well. Mixing will take place in January. Today he finishes the recordings of Camp X-Ray, also at Sweatbox, which is more like his second home.

This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb new record "Three Way Tie For A Fifth" produced by Tim is out now on LP and CD through No Idea Records and Plan-It-X Records, respectively. The image that was used on the front cover is a painting by Tim. Also, the upcoming album by Dexateens "Red Dust Rising" is scheduled for release on February 22nd, 2005 through Estrus Records, who also released their self-titled debut. These are two bands that Tim loves and two records that he's very proud of. Vinyl versions of both Dexateens albums will be available soon through Sweet Dog's (Dexateens drummer) new label Pickmark Records. See Studio Work section for more detais.

November 26th is the opening on "Move (eleven)", a group art show curated by Rich Jacobs. It will take place at 96 Gillespie gallery in London from November 27 to December 22, 2004. Tim will show some of his most recent paintings and he and Beth will both attend at the opening.

Here's the concept behing "Move":

"MOVE was originally created by Rich Jacobs as a zine that cross checked art, music, and ideas from the fringes of American society ie. skateboard culture, grafitti, street art, punk rock. Later Rich teamed up with Los Angeles curator Marsea Goldberg, founder of the New Image Art Gallery to launch his now legendary MOVE group exhibitions.

The MOVE shows have broken ground in uniting the most vital artists of the young American generation. Many have developed national and international reputations: Margaret Kilgallen, Barry McGee, Mark Gonzales, Shepard Fairey, Chris Johanson, Thomas Campbell, Michelle Lockwood, Eric White, Pat Graham and Chaz Bojoroquez to name a few.

The aesthetic is marked by broken boundaries between street culture, high art, skateboarding, illustration, graffiti, photography, painting & typography. Rich Jacob's has worked to tie these artists (from San Francisco, L.A., San Diego, Washington D.C., Orange County and New York City) into a powerfully cohesive movement.

Featuring many of the usual crowd: Barry Mcgee, Mark Gonzales, Thomas Campbell, Erika Borboa, Dalek, Ed Templeton, Tobin Yelland, Tim Kerr, Pat Graham, Cynthia Connolly & Cheryl Dunn; MOVE (eleven) delivers art by over 80 artists who are pursuing a running discourse with their own societies from within.

Expect wall to wall installation, a patchwork display of what's happening now, in America & over here.

Rich Jacobs was born in Long Beach, California (1972). Jacobs is an internationally acclaimed artist who has exhibited throughout the United States, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Asia. He is also the curator of the on-going series of exhibitions titled MOVE. His work appears in magazines, publications, and on a broad range of media from fashion products, records and printed work. Rich Jacobs currently lives and works in Brooklyn, New York."

During December Tim split his time between writing the new dance piece for Holly Williams and painting for the upcoming art show at New Image Art gallery in Los Angeles, CA. that will open in January. December 3rd opens in Chicago, IL, "Drawing To An End..." a group exhibition of drawings related to time, featuring Foundation Gallery artists "past, present and future" including, among others, Tim Kerr, Dan Grzeca, Serigraphie Populaire, Frank Brenner or Nick Butcher.

December 17 Tim will be doing a Soul Party at Beerland, in Austin, TX.

November 26th Tim will be in London for the opening of a group show at 96 Gillespie Gallery.

"We made it in at 4:30 this morning from Denver (18 hour van trip) and yep ... I'm at work. (smile)
The show went well. There was another scooter related show going on at the same time so the "expected crowd" was somewhat divided. We showed up at 4 to load in and sound check but ran into the age old "rule" that the headliner HAD to sound check first, even though we were all there and in the middle slot so that our stuff was moving no mater what. We were there for over an hour before the headliners showed up and then it was almost another hour before we did get to sound check which meant I missed the main part of the art opening I was suppose to be at. The sound guys were nice enough to let us sound check and from what I heard, the other bands sounded great so they did a good job with running the sound. The reaction to us was good ... part really really into it, and a bigger part really really wondering what the hell was going on. (smile) I was informed after we played that the sound people were trying to stop us, because we had gone over our "allotted" time, but gave up. (smile) The club was nice but the stage was too high (though I did finally jump off) and it was divided into these levels with guard rails… Not a very 'we are all in this together' kinda vibe. At the end of the show we were told somebody is gonna get seriously hurt if you don't shut the side door which opened to the parking lot where our van waited to be loaded up.
We were then told that the neighbours would complain about the music... which my answer is ... "the show is over! turn the fucking 'adult rock' off while you are picking up cords so we , can open the door".... Which I didn't say, but thought. We were then told we had to take our equipment out the front, which meant carry a 400 pound Hammond organ up and down levels ..."but dude ... if you go to the other side there are ramps between the levels!" Yes words were said and we got the hell out of there. Pretty fucking ridiculous (!) and one of the strong reasons for not wanting to play in clubs anymore. The Mile High Mayhem folks did a really really great job and had rented out the theatre for a night. I was told by the friends we were staying with, that that wasn't the usual sound guys at that club and that the place IS a really great place to play. They did let us sell our stuff without taking a percentage which was really cool.
The coolest thing were all the really great scooters! Some really really nice Lambrettas! The Mile High folks were really great and the people I talked to at the show were nice, the REVO gallery people were really great! And I wish we could have played in their space instead, where it would have been all ages..... AND… AND I SKATED!!!!!!!!! (really big smile!!!!!)
Now remember I have not really skated since I broke my leg. I have kinda skated/slid around down the hall of Sweatbox, but that is really it. We took our boards (3 of us skate in this band) because we knew that Denver had a lot of free cement parks... which they do!!!!!
On the way we stopped for gas in Lubbock right next to a good sized skateable ditch. I took it slow and rolled in and right off felt really awkward .When I got to the other wall and slid I could tell my leg just wasn't working right ... damn .... I then skated back to the van on the flat asphalt, and the knee I was pushing with went weak, which sent all my weight on one leg and I nearly went over the front of the board. I was not a happy camper. The next morning we go to the first park that had a really great banked area (my favourite thing to skate!), but I chickened out because I was still a bit freaked out from the day before ... BUT.... after watching everyone skate I was determined to skate again if only just to carve and lip slide for the rest of my life... When we got back to Lindsey's warehouse (SWAMP) I skated on the flat floors for a lot of the day. After the first 3 or 4 back and forth runs /slides ... it started feeling natural again and my knee wasn't giving out. I was determined to skate a banked wall so the next day we went to another park with banks and... I SKATED!!!!! .... granted I took it easy and didn't even lip slide yet but it felt natural again and I was back surfing in my mind doing some cess slides etc... So I was happy!
Overall it was a great trip (!) and we really are thankful to the people that helped out."

Also, here's some artwork done by Lindsey Kuhn, specially for the ocasion.

Attic Ted will be there wearing masks and rocking out! Total Sound Group Direct Action Committee will be there rocking out! A party! It's near the post office on south 5th and West Mary.
