Mark Joseph Roth of Greek Fire

Dear peoples of the republic.
The very first guest I got to interview along with my co-host Chad McKinsey, was my very own best friend and fellow ladies man, Mark Joseph Roth of Greek Fire and obviously of The Too Silent Ghost. Mark and I have had a long history together from living in Moon’s (Greek Fire, Story Of The Year and Goldfinger) basement to working on the road for Story Of The Year. Mark explains his passion for the music he plays and shares some great wisdom for up and coming musicians. A must listen if you just thought of a joke about bass players. Speaking of jokes, Mark is a very funny human. Listen, laugh and learn.

Question’s Game: Was Mark really in Los Angeles with the Western Kick boys?

Listen to this episode at WesternKick.com and for free on iTunes.

By the way he is seriously the same person as the legendary hall of fame bowler Mark Roth according to IMDB. Check out this photo for proof, look under music credits.

Where in the world have I been? I’ll tell you.. I’ve been working like a crazy man on two shows. One show involves my drawings and the other involves my voice. The one using my voice is called The Western Kick Show. Its strictly a music based show. Amazing if I say the least.

The Fart Bucket from Toot Toot Industries

The Fart Bucket from Toot Toot Industries
Posted on June 1, 2011 by Scott

We all remember situps on the old gym floor and the occasional deep bass sound from one unlucky student. That noise would make even the P.E. teacher laugh. I decided to invent a solid metal bucket so that deep throned tone will be easy to recreate. ‘We all need to take a minute to fart into a bucket.’ – M. Roth

I was listening to Silverchair while drawing this.
I used a click #2 BIC pencil on plain white sketch paper.

This is a tribute to one of rock’s finest bands, Silverchair. They announced last week that they are going on ‘indefinite hibernation.’
Here’s a few links to some of their music videos:
-Tomorrow
-Straight Lines
-The Greatest View from their must buy album, Diorama.

What One Drip Can Do

What One Drip Can Do by Scott Andrew McNew
Posted on May 25, 2011 by Scott

As an avid intellect I tend to read or wiki the latest and greatest news on philosophy. Is this actually important to the amazing piece art?

One drip could ruin an entire painting. One drip could enhance an entire pot of coffee. One statement that is pointless after two previous deep thoughts could make boring philosophies better.

I used a click #2 BIC pencil on 65lb Sketchbook paper.
I was listening to Foo Fighters while creating this picture.

Boot To The Moon

Boot To The Moon Tribute To Reggie
Posted on May 23, 2011 by Scott

This is a kind tribute to the legendary band Reggie and The Full Effect. One of my favorite live acts.  The tribute is based on a certain lyric, ‘Boot to the Moon.’ I’m sure its literal and not about kicking something.
Why no updates? Well, I do draw everyday, my computer though is dying. It likes to turn off on me. I smell a new investment this week:) Promise loads of new sexy updates.

I was listening to the latest Bob and Tom podcast while drawing this.
I used a click #2 BIC pencil on plain white printer paper to create his extravagant out of this world piece of art.

Also had an amazing photo shoot yesterday with my favorite studio and now my favorite model. I can’t wait to post these.

Raise your hand if you survived the ridiculous made up rapture date!

update: 12-2-2011 This picture is now the iTunes cover for the Western Kick show! Guess drawing a boot in space has finally paid off. Told you MOM!

Back In Her Arm

I do promise this makes sense and that there is a punchline. Wait I may be thinking of another artist’s picture. I decided to type our the words for my friends who can’t read my sleek handwriting. ‘Shortly after leaving I realized the mistake made, if only I could turn this around then tonight I’d be back in her arm.’

I was listening to Bob and Tom while drawing this beautiful piece.
I used a click #2 BIC pencil on soft white 100g/m2, 65lb sketchbook paper.

I drew this on the flight after leaving the tornado destroyed Lambert Airport. Guess the lack of oxygen helped me create a throw away picture. The little slug frog we will call frug.

No Longer The Best Elf

No Longer The Best Elf
Posted on May 8, 2011 by Scott

We all wonder what goes on at Santa’s workshop during the off season, well, here is an inside look. We all know elves are the main population of North Pole. Much like folks who live in western societies, elves constantly try to be the best of the best in their populations. This poor fella was but is no more.
“After the little elf was finally the best at something amongst other elves, he grew extremely sad because he found out there was another elf far more depressed than he. The little elf was no longer the best in any category.”

I was listening to Bob and Tom while drawing this picture.

Haynesworth Charged With Assault On Mountains

Haynesworth Charged With Assualt On Mountains
Posted on May 3, 2011 by Scott

Much like many of the men who serve in Washington DC, Albert Haynesworth was charged with sexual assault after swiping his credit card between ‘two mountains’ (Edited for grandparents). You know, I just had a thought… It must be the end times considering he can swipe his credit card between a woman’s breast and actually end up getting charged.

“I didn’t touch her,” Haynesworth responded, according to the document, adding that he doesn’t “even like black girls.” -[Read full story at Yahoo! news]

I was listening/watching Sports Show with Norm McDonald.
I used a click #2 BIC pencil on plain white printer paper to create this timeless photo.
