In other news...
I've been approached by an individual a couple weeks ago who wants to feature my Bright Black Heaven designs in their clothing line. Of course, I was very honored, and accepted the offer. I do not know any further details (as I haven't gotten a reply back in a while), but I am working on new designs that I will post when completed. Look forward to us possibly selling the first Bright Black Heaven merch in the future!
UPDATE:
Since the band name and logo are indeed copyrighted, I wouldn't be allowed to feature them on designs. Although I am still working with that person mentioned on clothing, it will just be unrelated to Blaqk Audio. Those designs I mentioned will still be posted when I finish them.

Is that legal?
I don't know actually, I'll get back to you on that :P
I was wondering that, as well. Just make sure that you ensure the legality of it, before jumping into anything. If it is "on the up and up", it sounds like a really cool opportunity! :-) (You should try sending your ideas to the guys, directly!)
~*Kristin*
Yeah don't worry, I wouldn't sell them if they weren't legal. And I would love to send my ideas to them, but have no idea how I would go about doing that. Anyone know who I can email?
Well, I reached Jade, once, via their MySpace...But, they are harder, and harder to track down, it seems. I'd suggest sending them a message on MySpace, with a straight-forward, but attention-catching subject line.
~*Kristin*
No, there has to be some email, and AFI News HQ knows how to contact them.
Yeah, I was wondering about that, when I saw them post about their e-mail interview. I wondered where they got the address, in the first place. Think that they'd give it to you?! (Probably, not. :-S) [Do you know if they have one for Blaqk Audio, specifically?!]
~*Kristin*
There is definitely an email but it doesn't go to AFI/Blaqk Audio specifically =)
Well Mike, I would really like to know what it is. Email me ?
What does that mean?!...Do you mean that it's an e-mail for them, but someone else manages it?
~*Kristin*
Mike told me he has the email to some chick that works for the label & can hook you up with the band. Unsurprisingly, he wouldn't give it to me.
Bah...We'll find out own way to contact them! ;-)
~*Kris*
Well one would assume that if you go through whatever label BA is getting distributed through you would be able to find a way to contact whoever represents them. It seems unfair to resent AFInewsHQ over not giving out the bands contct info when it isn't theirs to give out.
We'll see what we can find out, 'going through the proper channels'...I am just curious where they got that information, to begin with.
Thanks for the suggestion...We'll look into it.
~*Kristin*
I am not mad about not getting the info, Mike told me they contacted the band by a friend who worked for Interscope. So it really isn't my business, and besides there are other ways to contact them, I just don't know how.
We'll find a way! ;-)
