We the People…

Happy 2010 people! I hope for great things for everyone out there. 2009 was a great year for us and it was all because of the loving and supportive like minded people out there. Without your appreciation for what we’re doing and your wish to have a part of it, little of this would mean as much as it does.

As the seasons change it’s now a time for us to sit back, reflect, create and look ahead into this new time to come. We had amazing responses to some new designs we debuted over the holidays and I can’t wait to refine and officially present them to you. In the mean time keep your eyes out for some new stickers out around town (send us pics of yours slapped up!)

Here’s some creativity to look forward too…

Yep yep, here we are at that special time of year. There’s that snap in the air, the crispness to our breath and a little extra bustle to our step. But why not slow your roll just a bit and come check out some of these great events in the coming days.

We’ll be setting up shop at these special east bay happenings. We’ll have some special new items on hand and some great holiday deals. Be sure to check us out!

Every year Michael Franti hosts the 9/11 Power to the Peaceful music festival in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. It’s a free day of arts, music, politics and an overall atmosphere of…peace.  We’re glad to be a part of this, our 4th annual Power to the Peaceful.  Check the lineup and after party, too!

…Then on Sunday we’ll be headed back to our old stomping grounds in the east bay for the Solano Stroll. Spanning the miles long stretch from Berkeley to Albany, The Solano Stroll is a gigantic house street party for kids, adults and families alike. We’ll be midway down the stretch between Ventura and Ordway. Come for the parade, stay for the food, enjoy the food, support the vendors!

We’ll have a few new pieces on hand so be sure to stop by the booth. Here’s a taste…

Things are bubbling along with some great festivals the last few weekends and a few more in the coming weeks. Look for us at the Justin Herman Plaza along San Francisco’s Embarcadero in the coming weeks where we’ll be debuting some new styles.

But for now we just wanted to treat you to some nice tunes to get you through your work week and carry you through the weekend. Summer’s here y’all!

We’re gearing up to make it out to one of our favorite festivals of the summer, the classic Haight Ashbury Street Fair. It’s loud, it’s crazy and it’s a pure San Francisco.

And I’ll just say this, v-necks are the hit maker so far…

It’s that time of year again when the sun pops out, we shed some layers and good folks take to the streets and parks to enjoy the countless festivals and celebrations of music, culture and the arts.  We’ll be making the rounds, of course, setting up shop around the SF bay area to show off our new designs (down below) and our standby favorites.

Check us out this weekend in the Mission District of San Francisco for Carnaval! And in the weeks to come…

This is the start of a new year and with it we’re hoping to bring about a few new things to spice it all up, starting with this blog.

This winter we’ll be taking a break from the outdoor festival scene to focus on new designs. And in the meantime we’ll be having a sale to clear out room for the new gear. Be sure to stay tuned for that!

For those of you that are proud to claim the Bay Area as home, you should definitely check out Kitty’s bar in Emeryville Thursday nights.  Our front man Tibbs is starting a new gig there, spinning hip hop/soul/reggae from 10-2am, weekly.  And you can still check him there for happy hour on the first and third Fridays of each month, too.

Lastly, we just updated the site with with some sweet fan pics. Check the yours section to see if you made it! And if you you’ve got a great shot of yourself in your favorite LMP. tee, send it our way and we’ll get you up there. Here are a few new ones.
