Yes, he certainly does.
All the extra work making designs for songfighters as well as a real job and weekly covers.
Thank you!

It goes without saying that I think Bortwein is the freaking mack daddy. On top of all the great artwork he makes week after week, He made the awesome <a href="
http://www.threadless.com/profile/24991 ... _Sightings!" target="blank">Explino! T-shirt design</a>, he made my album cover for my <a href="
http://glenncase.songhole.org/lyrics/aad/doctors.html" target="blank">"Keeping the doctor away"</a> Album-a-day entry, and he made the <a href="
http://glenncase.songhole.org/images/glennMain_05.gif" target="blank">Half Racks logo</a> too!
He's actually a <a href="
http://www.songfight.org/music/baba_gan ... p3">decent drummer</a> too!
Y'all should check out his <a href="
http://homepage.mac.com/bortwein/tv/" target="blank">website</a> if you haven't already.
ROCK!

Thanks guys, I needed this little pick me up. I've been stressed lately. I also feel like I haven't been hanging out around songfight enough lately. I'm so behind on listening to the fights.

I don't usually like to jump into a thread like this with nothing more to say than "me too," but bortwein's worth an exception. All our coverartists are awesome, and bortwein wins the emmy for most consistent goodness. Week in, week out, lots of work and all of it rockin'.

A) Bortwein is super-awesome. I totally agree.
B) I am amused to see that I am the representative of "scared". Woot!

P.S. Bortwein = YAY!

YEAH! It will be a t-shirt Birthday extravaganza for me. I ordered the "Robot Derby Girl" t-shirt from threadless.com last week that should be here soon too. I'm excited to see the EXPLINO shirts in person.

I just wanted to drop in and let everyone know that I feel real shitty for not being around for a while and not submitting art in ages. My life has been a complete mess since last year and I don't see it getting any better any time soon. It may even just get worse. I'm not looking for an outcry of sympathy. I just wanted to let you all know that I do think think about songfight and how much I miss the group of you all.
I always like to qoute Glenn... ROCK!
Thanks,
bortwein

Want it or not, I'm sure you'll get it. We all miss your art. Here's hoping things turn around for you man.
