Albatross Party (one of the many Asheville bands that has an employee of Image 420 as a member) is having a CD release party tonight, at Broadway’s (120 Lexington Avenue, downtown Asheville). Come by and check out the show.

To call the Rockin’ Riverfest Raft Race a “race” is more than a bit of exaggeration. Last year, however, we ended up walking away with the second-best time in the race. This year, we raced less, and relaxed more.

The river was much easier to traverse, given the high waters from all of the rain we’ve had recently. So, while more industrious souls zipped by us (one team drove paddleboat made out of a fighter jet gas tank), we took our time down the French Broad.

Not that there wasn’t some excitement to be had. Breaking your boat before you ever get it into the water will provide for a fair amount of excitement. Check out the slideshow…

Putting the raft together.

We would like to cordially invite you to come out to the French Broad River Park (Amboy Road, Asheville) tomorrow, for the 2009 Rockin’ Riverfest. This will be our second year in the raft race, and we’d love to have your support, as we float lazily down the river. Or sink somewhehere near the starting line.

The Image 420 Art Department would like to cordially invite you to join us for two rock and roll spectacles. Tonight, catch Brent and his band, Albatross Party, at Stella’s (the basement of Stella Blue, 31 Patton Ave., AVL). Then, on Saturday night, Jeremy and his band, Cobra Horse, take on Broadway’s (113 Broadway, AVL).

Happy Holidays from all of us here at Image 420 Screenprinting
