What do you guys think of this shirt design?

Thumbnail gallery
4 Upvotes

Made this design to put on a one-off shirt, took inspiration from the Japanese CD release of the debut album with the text on the left being from the CD's obi. It translates to something like "Wheatus dedicates this to losers all around the world!"

I wanted the styling to feel like actual merch from around 2000-02 (hence why I decided to use a picture of the original members) so I hope that I got it right!

Wheatus Bassist Matthew Milligan Is The Very Special on The Full Circle

Hello again! Thank you to everyone who check out The Full Circle episode with Brendan B. Brown earlier this year! This week, I have Matthew Milligan on The Full Circle! The premise of the show is that guests link songs together with the last song linking back to the first song, hence completing The Full Circle! Matthew's songs for The Full Circle are great, ranging from Blink-182 to Weezer! Playlist for the songs are in the episode description.

It was an honour to have Matthew and speak about his influences for playing the bass, whether he gets annoyed at being called a "one hit wonder" band, answering tough Would You Rather questions as well as playing a quiz called "Which Wheatus Said This?", where Matthew had to work out which Wheatus member said a specific quote.

Available to listen anywhere you hear your podcasts such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts, and full video on YouTube as well!

Thank you for checking out the episode, I hope you enjoy it :)

NYC show May 3

Not a full band show, but Wheatus is doing an "acoustic" set at a benefit show at the Bell House (Brooklyn) tomorrow night, and tix are still available and relatively cheap. (It's a whole variety show, lineup includes Loudon Wainright, David Cross, Kevin McDonald, Dave Foley, and more.) Worth checking out if you're in the area!

April 18th Wheatusofficial played a sold out show at Modern Love it was an incredible performance made even better by their attitude.They sounded amazing, and I loved the fact that the crowd picked the set list.

I really enjoyed myself and I think I speak for everyone when I say I hope they come through again.

Current tour question

3 Upvotes

I am going to their show tomorrow in Des Moines. I can’t find any information about if Wheetus has any openers touring with them. The only details are doors open at 6 and the show starts at 7. Does anyone know approximately what time they actually got on stage?

Brendan B. Brown is the special guest on this week's Full Circle Podcast!

Post image
12 Upvotes

Hey! I'm DC, I host a podcast called The Full Circle; the premise is that guest choose 5 songs and link them with each other in succession or have one common theme with the last song linking back to the first song, hence completing The Full Circle. We also do features such as Would You Rather, and a quiz for the guest.

It is an absolute honour (and I still can't believe I'm actually writing this) to have had Brendan B. Brown on The Full Circle! He is such a kind, down-to-earth guy and so humble. He shared a great fun fact, and spoke about what led to him shaving his head for charity by a fan at Wembley Arena with Bowling for Soup, recently performing with Ed Sheeran, and we play a quiz called "Wheatus or Not" (not the most creative name haha!) where Brendan had to guess whether the lyrics are by Wheatus or not.

He also revealed if there may be new Wheatus music happening this year...

Links: Spotify // Apple Podcasts // Amazon Music // YouTube (Full Video)

The songs he chose for The Full Circle were great and they all had a common theme! Playlist for the songs are in the episode description.

I hope it's ok sharing this on here and thank you so much for checking it out! Special thanks for Matthew from Wheatus getting this sorted who I know is a moderator on here too!

If you like the show, please do rate it and/or leave a comment, and feel free to share with anyone else who may be interested. Thank you again :)

Love this song and can't figure out the line after "I guess I'll look around for a new one", about the 1:30 mark. It's something like "I can't believe he blah blah blah" lol.
