Breadpig Blog: Purveyor & Publisher of All Things Geek — Sightings

The band went through a tumultuous year of ups and downs. Critics will debate this for years to come, but we believe our zenith was somewhere around our appearance on SpikeTV. We followed that studio performance with some shows in the city -- back with the people, our fans. Just a month earlier, the band had broken up. But there we were, back in top form, rocking out. And here are the pictures to prove it, taken by our band manager/PR guru and photographer, Mike Scrivener. View the entire collection. Video to come.

Imagine waiting in line on November 4th, standing behind someone with a shirt reading "When the world needed a hero, it got a pig with bread wings."

I didn't expect this interview, but Julia is busy launching her life-casting startup, NonSociety -- I should have known everything is fair game. We'd met for coffee to catch up, but I also had to ask the new Wired cover girl about all the scorn that's been heaped on her. Yes, she's handling it well. Oh, and I happen to be wearing the breadpig Dreaming of Androids shirt. Bonus exposure!
