    Default Sons Of Anarchy

    Wow, what a day!

    Cliff (cdv) and I drove 5 1/2 hours (one way) to Ironton, OH for their Rally on the River bike rally to work the event for the SONS OF ANARCHY TV show!!!!!

    OK, lemme explain...... The media / marketing company that has the TV show as a client goes to bike rallies, and sets up as a marketing tool to promote the show. They set up a mach-clubhouse as a place to hang out, etc. They give away Sons Of Anarchy Doo-rags (bandana's), and they needed somebody to airbrush them.

    Pat - aka The Airbrush Guy - hooked me up with this gig as it was way too far for him to handle. I called the company and told them I'd find them someone for the event.....and if I couldn't, I'd take care of it. Needless to say, with only 3 days notice, I ended up handling it myself. Then I found out it was 5 1/2 hours away from my house. OUCH!

    Cliff was gracious enough to come down for the day and help out. Big Time Thanks Cliff! Couldn't have done it without ya!

    We airbrushed for 5 hours, and managed to customize about 65 of the doo-rags. I learned one thing for sure.....I don't know how you T-shirt artists do this for a living!!!! It was grueling. My hand still hurts. I think I will definately stick with the hard surface stuff.....this was a bit out of my element......actually, it was the first time I ever attempted to do something like this. I think I've painted 3 shirts in my life up to this point.

    Way cool day, and who knows......I hope to do this for em in the future, as I'm a HUGE fan of the show!!!!

    Big D

    PS....I wanted to get a picture actually sitting on Jax's bike....but I saw how he reacted to that the last time someone sat on his bike......."Don't ever sit on another man's bike, son!" LOL

    Wow, what a day.... to add to what Tom said, I went along with full intentions of stepping out of my comfort zone and helping out. I brought along everything needed but then found out they weren't prepared with enough electricity for two compressors and one with two brushes attached was loading the compressor down to much. IF Tom wouldn't have brought the board and easel along, we'd have really suffered. So to make a long story short, I stood there holding one corner of the bandana's while doing my best not to bump the easel, keeping the bandana from flapping in the wind. Tom sat almost the entire 5 hours and honestly we didn't have but 10 minutes of down time. I don't know how he did it with all the hand cramps he ended up getting.

    Thanks to Pat and to Tom for the chance..... maybe next time I'll spray some paint!

    Ya know, there is a van up the street from my house... it says "Sons of Anarchy official Film crew" followed by a bunch of dates and pictures on it. I suppose I should have payed closer attention to what that is all about! Very cool, and good job on the long AB hours. That truely makes you a "Big Daddy"... if I were doing it- I'd be a "big sissy"
