The Maxx
Haven't thought about this comic book or show in YEARS... Stumbled upon the DVD on Amazon a few months ago, bought it, and have probably watched a dozen time since... This broke doors down in animation, and I forgot how cool it was too...
Now I wanna go back and find all the old comics!

Old Lyrics - Jade
JADE
ARE YOU SOMETIMES DOWN, AND YOU DON’T KNOW WHY?
WELL, I’VE BEEN THERE JADE.
WHEN YOU GET REAL TIRED OF PLAYING ALL THEIR GAMES
WILL YOU DANCE WITH ME, JADE?
YOU KNOW I CAN SEE WHERE YOU’RE COMING FROM.
YOU SAY I’M
CRAZY, BUT HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
GET UP AND DANCE, ABOVE THE LOVERS.
I’VE DONE IT JADE, SO CAN YOU.
DON’T WORRY ABOUT WHAT YOUR NEIGHBORS THINK.
JUST YOU DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU.
YOU KNOW I CAN SEE WHERE YOU’RE COMING FROM.
YOU SAY I’M
CRAZY, BUT HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
SO IF YOU GET DOWN, SO LOW DOWN,
AND YOU CAN’T FIND ME, JADE.
JUST REACH TO THE SKY, LOOK FOR ME.
I’LL GRAB YOU.
AND BRING YOU RIGHT TO ME.
YOU KNOW I CAN SEE WHERE YOU’RE COMING FROM.
YOU SAY I’M
CRAZY, BUT HOW WOULD YOU…
HOW WOULD YOU KNOW.
THIS ONE’S NOT FOR THE LOVERS,
THIS ONE’S FOR YOU JADE.

Old Lyrics - Sprinkles
Sprinkles
How specific can I be
Adopted at the age of 33
33, the year I was supposed to die
My body's dust sprinkled in your eyes
A friend wants to inhale my soul
She's still waiting
For me to die
Girl I know should live alone
But on my couch is what she calls home
Pony tail? Make up your mind
My body's dust sprinkled in your eyes
Another girl wants to get to know
She's waiting
To show her soul
Bobby asks "Did you break a piece off?"
I laugh and say "I did my best."
Funny how I'll never know
Don't make me sleep on my porch again
Let me light your cigarette.
How specific can I be
Adopted at the age of 33
33, the year I was supposed to die
My body's dust sprinkled in your eyes
A friend wants to inhale my soul
She's still waiting
For me to die
Girl I know should live alone
But on my couch is what she calls home
Pony tail? Make up your mind
My body's dust sprinkled in your eyes
Another girl wants to get to know
She's waiting
To show her soul
Bobby asks "Did you break a piece off?"
I laugh and say "I did my best."
Funny how I'll never know
Don't make me sleep on my porch again
Let me light your cigarette.

Old Lyrics - You're The One
YOU’RE THE ONE
(WHO KICKS MUD IN MY EYE)
Sometimes we’re naked,
Sometimes we’re loading our guns.
Sometimes we’re with other people,
They are the lucky ones.
Sometimes I love you.
Sometimes I ask myself why.
Sometimes I want to hit you.
Most of the time I want to cry.
Because you’re the one who kicks mud in my eye.
Parading around in your underwear
Looking so good, so cool.
Telling me I’m not good enough to fuck you.
But you live at my house, and eat from my fridge.
You take my money and spend it.
And then you’ll ask me to lay you.
And of course I oblige,
Then kick you out of the bed.
Because you’re the one who kicks mud in my eye.

Amazing

If you're reading this and you were there; I thank you.
If you're reading this and missed it, well... The exhibit's up through 3/31, and we'll screening "Josh and Todd" on 3/31 to close the event! So you better get there between now and then! Hahaha!!!

Old Lyrics - Demented Forgetful Confused
Demented Forgetful Confused
The sky wide opened
Just like your legs
It poured and poured
And washed my soul
And ran away again
You always leave me
Demented, forgetful, confused
It's enough to surround myself with you
Demented, forgetful, confused
I center myself by nites with you
So fucked up,
A weekday, "school nite"; she said
Should I look for that again
It's the trouble
The trouble
So leave me
Demented, forgetful, confused
Then come, surround myself with you
Demented, forgetful, confused
It's enough to spend my life with you
So fucked up
For you.
The sky wide opened
Just like your legs
It poured and poured
And washed my soul
And ran away again
You always leave me
Demented, forgetful, confused
It's enough to surround myself with you
Demented, forgetful, confused
I center myself by nites with you
So fucked up,
A weekday, "school nite"; she said
Should I look for that again
It's the trouble
The trouble
So leave me
Demented, forgetful, confused
Then come, surround myself with you
Demented, forgetful, confused
It's enough to spend my life with you
So fucked up
For you.

Old Lyrics - Sticker Price
Sticker Price
What was the sticker price?
I don't know, I peeled it off
It really doesn't matter
I got it cheap.
It's kinda outta control
And I'm enjoying it
Way too much
How come this is getting easier?
Shouldn't it get harder
On me?
So easy to fall up the stairs again.
And right on my face again.
What was the sticker price?

Shouldn't it get harder

So easy to fall up the stairs again.

Come See Steve! In Person!!!
Yup! We have been doing this for ten years!
Thanks for all your support over the years!
To celebrate we will be screening for the first time ever "The Complete Steve The Vampire" on March 3, 2012 at Paris In Plantsville Gallery and Studio!
That same day Paris In Plantsville will open a new exhibition to celebrate the Ten Years of Elmwood Productions! The gallery will be filled with puppets from our films, behind the scenes photography, character designs, and more.
"The Complete Steve The Vampire" follows the adventures of Steve who was turned into a vampire as a teenager and although now in his mid-twenties, he just can't catch a break trying to prove himself in the vampire community. Between his overbearing and in denial mother, his indifferent girlfriend, and his unlikely friendship with Dracula, he still manages to keep his head on straight and do his best to avoid being staked by the local vampire slayer.
And all he wants to do is hang out, watch some Star Trek, and enjoy a good glass a blood...
The screening is also part of Paris In Plantsville's monthly film series showcasing independent films made in and connected to the local film community.
And on March 31st we will also be screening our feature film "Josh and Todd: The Story of a Man and is Puppet" to close out the exhibition.
For both screening the doors open at 7:00 PM, and the films start at 8:00PM.
As with all our screenings it is a free event, but donations to the gallery are appreciated. The donations keep events like this happening!
We'd like to thank our friends at The Official Beer of Elmwood Productions - Pabst Blue Ribbon - for all their support!
"Steve the Vampire" is rated PG
"Josh and Todd: The Story of a Man and His Puppet" is rated R

Done...
So last Wednesday we shot the last bits for the "Steve the Vampire" series... The picture above is from that night (thanks Mike!) and we laughed like Hell...It felt good. No, it felt great. Beautiful in fact. I love the crew we have.
And last nite Jim, Steph, and I went to Russ' to do the last bits of voice-over dubbing. We had some things to fix and so on... And we finished that. I got home around 4 AM and was jazzed, but still did pass out within an hour. So now it's noon the next day and I'm thinking about the past six years of Steve the Vampire... The past six years of my life...
And this is the happiest I have been in YEARS...
I love my life. I love what I do. I love the Elmwood Crew. I love everyone!!!! Hahahaha!!!
Anyway, you better come 3/3 to see the show. Or I might cry.
And PBR will be there, so free beer!!!!!
Old Lyrics - What Went Wrong?
WHAT WENT WRONG?
HERE I AM,
AND AS FAR AS I CAN SEE
THINGS AIN’T RIGHT
BETWEEN YOU AND ME
IT’S BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU’VE SAID YOU LOVE ME.
THE LIES GO ON
WHY MUST YOU ALWAYS DECEIVE ME?
WHAT WENT WRONG
WITH US SUGAR?
AND WHY’D YOU MAKE ME TAKE THE BUS?
SO COME TELL ME BABY,
PLEASE TELL ME BABY,
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT WENT WRONG?
WAS IT ALL MY FUSSIN’,
OR MY SLAP-HAPPY CUSSIN’?
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT WENT WRONG.
TAKE A STEP FOR EVERYTHING
THAT YOU’VE DONE CRAZY.
DREAM A DREAM,
IF IT IS GOOD, NAKED WE’LL BE!
TIME. WHAT TIME?
IF WE MAKE LOVE WE LOSE ALL TIME.
YOU SAY I’M CRAZY BUT I DON’T MIND.
AS LONG AS WE’RE HAPPY IT’LL BE ALRIGHT
ALRIGHT!
SO COME TELL ME BABY,
PLEASE TELL ME BABY,
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT WENT WRONG?
WAS IT ALL YOU EXPECTED
FROM THE THINGS THAT YOU WANTED?
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT WENT WRONG?
I CAN’T DO IT NO MORE!
I CAN’T TAKE IT NO MORE!
I CAN’T DIG IT NO MORE!
IT’S DRIVING ME CRAZY!
I GOT A TWO BIT SUCKA-BITCH,
APPLE JACK RAM-O-BIT,
AND I LOVE YOU LIKE A CHAKA-MU-BERRY!
AND I LOVE YOU LIKE A CHAKA-MU-BERRY!
I SAID I LOVE YOU! (LOVE YOU!)
I SAID I LOVE YOU LIKE A
CHAKA-MU-BERRY!
