Never thought I would be posting this but things have been getting out of control and we finally need help to run this little business that we never thought would become a business....

This summer we are doing a F Yeah Fest tour... It's a month long. Music, comedy and art. Starts June 17th and goes to July 13th. Some of our favorite bands and comedians are coming on the tour along with the art collective from Philly, Space 1026.


Then we are doing the F Yeah Fest 5 in LA on August 30th & 31st. It's now called F Yeah Fest cause we doing it in a state park and the state doesn't like profanity....

anyway.... we have our hands full right now. this whole operation is run by myslef with help from a few friends whenever they have time. we need a few people this summer to help run things in Los Angeles while we are on the road.



this would be an internship but you would be paid with high fives, whiskey(if you are of age), free tickets to watch the horse races at hollywood park, some cds and maybe something else that we are missing but yeah, it will be amazing!

Let us if you are interested in being an intern for us this summer.


Hit us back if you are interested and we will get you all the details. Also let us know your location, how many hours you can work a week etc.

*Whispertown2000 has canceled.

We are sooooo fucking excited to announce the Fuse! will reunite for this year's Fuck Yeah Fest. This will be their only show back as a band. The Fuse! broke up in 2004 after releasing only one record on In The Red. Having them get back together is incredible being that they were one of the bands that inspired me to do the Fuck Yeah Fest back in 2004. We couldn't be happier about this.

Also the Blood Arm, the Muslims, the Prayers, 50 on their heels, Japanese Motors and Whispertown 2000 have all confirmed for the fest as well with more bands coming this week.
Please check out the new line up below.
This will be amazing.

Update: The winner will be posted on Friday at noon.

Below are all the details for the art show that is taking place at this year's Fuck Yeah Fest. Everyone is invited to be a part of this. You do not have to be artists to be involved……..* This years 60 different artists will receive an XXL white cotton t-shirt to use as a canvas.

*Each artist can do whatever they want to the shirt. There are no guidelines. Just as long as the shirt can still be worn.

*All the shirts will be returned a couple days before the fest.

*Each day 30 people will be given free passes to Fuck Yeah Fest. The guidelines for the people wearing the shirts are… have to be under 22, have to have tons of energy, have to show up at door time (5:00pm) and stay till midnight. The point is to have the artwork traveling all around rather then staying in one place.

*Each person will be photographed wearing the shirt that they are given before and then after the fest. The photographs will be taken by Jeremy and Clair Weiss (Day 19)

*The kids wearing the shirts will have a different wristband then everyone else. They can only get into the venues unless they wearing the shirt and wristband. This will prevent them from just taking the shirt off and getting in for free.

Please email me and let me know if you'd be interested in being a part of this project. I can send you a shirt right away. And forward this to your friends and tell whoever about it. This is going to be amazing.
And the line up for this years fest is below.

If you are still interested being a part of this please pick up an X-Large plain white shirt (cost is usually under $3) and do whatever you'd like to it, just as long as it is still wearable. Please mail it back to us by Thursday, August 23rd and we will put it in the show.
Thank you so much and hope you can still be a part of this.
