Hey y'all...
Go to Field of Gravity .com...
Check out the stolen Emek QOTSA image on the Clutch poster.
Check out what it says directly under it....
All artwork copyright 2007 field of gravity. Don't be a fool and steal anything, stealing is for jerks. :shock:

I seriously can't believe this crap....
It's one thing to borrow an image but c'mon.... It's mine, don't steal from me?

Emek knows, so don't bombard him with Emails and get me in trouble for Spam City. He's solid and cool like a rock in Switzerland Alps too.

fudge maybe it's just me... but I find it a little strange.

It's Emek's octopus no?... He just stuck a skull on it. It already had a skull... not even halfway original.
Maybe not a crime.... but why be so paranoid about stealing a stolen piece? Lame....
Maybe it is just me.... ethics suck. :)

Hope all is well on the palehighway bro-ski....

Catch me something... I eat fish everyday!
Almost every meal... :P

They've only let me down once... Petaluma 2006. Looking forward to a high energy sloppy heater for the first show of the tour. Just how I like em'! If Edgar makes it out we'll get you a tape... I'm too old and lazy. Plus I can't find my stealth mics... would have used them for Greg Brown last night. :x

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is a clip art octopus that emek modified. I have seen it in a lot more posters than his and the clutch one.

Yup...
A borrowed art clip, and a borrowed idea morphed into a warning that stealing is for jerks. :lol:
