Rockabilly Tees Looking for help at car shows

noreply@blogger.com (Rockabilly Tees) — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 13:40:00 +0000

I am looking to start a "Street Team" for Rockabilly Tees. It is a way for you to earn a free shirt or maybe much more. It will be a very simple job. I send you some fliers and you pass them out at you local car show or if you have a booth, you leave some of the fliers on your table.

I'll send a shirt for you to wear with the fliers. Each of the fliers will have a code on the back for a customer discount. This will help to track your progress and may get you more free shirts! The more sales to your name, the more free stuff you get!

If you are interested, check out the website at http://www.rockabillytees.com and check out the products! From T-shirts to bumper stickers we have a lot of really cool stuff! If you have any questione please feel free to email rockabillytees@gmail.com or leave a comment here.

Rockabilly Tees Meet the owner!

Greetings everyone! My name is Eric Young, but for almost 10 years I have been known as "Eric The Bastard." Yes, my parents were married when I was born, in fact they were married for a couple of years before I was born. The Bastard part comes from more of an attitude stand point. The full bio and story of my life can be found at: http://blog.affordablebandshirts.com/2008/08/brief-introduction-to-eric-bastard.html

As a small business owner it is sometimes very difficult to make ends meet. I have a 9 to 5 day job. Having a day job helps to pay my bills but does little else. I started screen printing 3 years ago with the idea that within 5 years I would be doing just screen printing full time. With just a little over 2 years to go that plan is running out of time.

I recently started an advertising campaign that includes Twitter, MySpace, Blogspot and WebSite and I will be adding facebook soon. I am also finally starting to advertise in some printed material. Advertising is very expensive. So, I am trying to get the most bang for my buck. I am always open to suggestions so please let me know if you have any great ideas for me!

Bettie Page dies at age 85

noreply@blogger.com (Rockabilly Tees) — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 22:10:00 +0000

Bettie Page, one of the most famous US pin-up models of the 1950s, has died in Los Angeles, aged 85.

Her provocative poses - often in bikinis - made her a cult figure and she was one of the first models to appear in Playboy magazine.

Bettie Page was credited with helping to pave the way for the sexual revolution of the 1960s.

Some pictures of her showing bondage and spanking generated controversy and attracted a congressional subpoena.

The secretary-turned-model was admitted to hospital last month, suffering from pneumonia. She had a heart attack last week and never regained consciousness.

'Iconic figure'

"With deep personal sadness I must announce that my dear friend and client Bettie Page passed away at 1841 this evening (0241 GMT Friday) in a Los Angeles hospital," her agent Mark Roesler said.

"She captured the imagination of a generation with her free spirit and unabashed sensuality", he said. "She is the embodiment of beauty".

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner called her a "very dear person", AP reported.

"I think that she was a remarkable lady, an iconic figure in pop culture who influenced sexuality, taste in fashion, someone who had a tremendous impact on our society," Hefner was quoted as saying.

Bettie Mae Page was born in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1923. Her career took off after an amateur photographer in New York asked her to pose for pictures in 1950.

She featured in posters and photographs, including one of the early centrefolds of Playboy magazine.

However not everyone was happy with the pictures. Some US lawmakers were concerned they amounted to pornography and subpoenaed Page to testify at a congressional hearing, although in the end she never had to appear.

Looking back on her career, she told Playboy in 1998: "I never thought it was shameful. I felt normal. It's just that it was much better than pounding a typewriter eight hours a day, which gets monotonous."

She was married three times but had no children.

She disappeared from public view in the late 1950s, turning to religion and battling mental illness. However, decades later, she became the subject of renewed interest.
