#InterventionCon Is Coming!

This year BitB will be heading out to InterventionCon! What is InterventionCon you may ask? Well... as far as we've been told, it's a mash-up of art and the internet community and culture. Does this mean there will be an intervention? No... not necessarily, well... at least not there, afterwards is another story. This is the first year that the BitB crew will be making it out there, but to be honest, it's only the second year that it's been running. The BitB crew was alerted to this party by our own AoM Jennie_Z. I have talked on and off with a few of the creators of this fantastic convention, and they would like to spread the word to make this as big as it can possibly get.

"Intervention Con's back for year two – bigger and better, of course! With 31 guests, a rapidly expanding Artist’s Alley, the return of the popular Zombies vs. Humans LARP, and newly added Children’s programming (overseen by Matt Blum, Managing Editor of GeekDad), Intervention Con 2011 is offering geeky fun for all parties at a price everyone can afford!

Taking place at the Hilton Washington DC/Rockville in Rockville, MD, from September 16-18, Intervention Con 2011 features guests like Jennie Breeden (The Devil’s Panties), Pete Abrams (Sluggy Freelance), H. Caldwell Tanner (Loldwell), Tovias of Reality Amuck, and Chris Flick (Capes and Babes), expansive educational programming, and tons of fun. 

For a limited time only, you can get full weekend tickets for $35 - a 22% savings over the door price of $45! Get it while you can - the offer's over as of June 30th!

Check out www.interventioncon.com for tickets, special Intervention Con weekend room rates, and more info! SEE YOU THERE!”

Oni has promised this is an event that you can't afford to miss. There are tons of sponsors, which means more fun toys and prizes to be given away, not to mention all the high quality entertainment and guests! BitB will be bringing a convoy of it's own from Wisconsin all the way to DC just for this event, including some of our own InterventionCon-Artists.

 

Hope to see you there!


As always, with love,

We are back!

Finally, after a month of weddings, parties, barnburnings, and recruitments, we are back. We have quite a few orders piling up, and we have our little workers sorting out the mess.

Workshop
Despite their cuteness, they still get a lot of work done. As you can see, this one is still working to buy another shoe.

 

If you haven't stopped by lately, you wouldn't know that we have a new featured artist! Jennie_Z has been gratious enough to come up with 5 new and original designs to brighten your world. As always, each print is in a very limited number, and they are selling quickly... so don't waste time, we won't be printing these again. Such shirts as Tri-Curious, Bite Me!, Motorboating, C. U. Next Tuesday, and Just the Tip don't come around everyday... make sure you give that message to the world! Each of these shirts are printed on high quality shirts to last a lifetime if not eternity*! What's that you say? You want to see/hear/read our interview with Jennie_Z? That could happen... there just needs to be a lot of radio internet editing... she's a foul mouth, but most of the good artists are.

 

We hope you have some fun with these new designs, we know we have

 

as always,

Love

You will have to stay tuned for our interview, we are trying something new, a DRINKING SKYPE INTERVIEW!!! Who knows what will happen? We don't, so how would you know? Oh... well that makes sense... just let us know how that goes then.

As always, I make some witty comment down here before I leave, but I'll be honest... I seem a little braindead with this rain today... and I really don't have much of a story to tell...

 

So stay tuned for the next exciting adventure from the BitB Crew!!!
