I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

www.meatoes.com
we're meat and potatoes, a small design studio in burbank, california.
(so what if it's smoggy, we can still see the mountains)
there's 6 of us here in the meat locker:
we love being designers, and would not change that for anything else in the world. (well, except to go pump gas in montana)
if we've reached out to you to be a friend, well then it must be because we like your profile, photos, art, tattoos, smell, or just your sense of style. plus, we get lonely working in the studio, and thought we would build a network of friends to talk to every now and then.
so, you want to be our friend? ok just don't leave the toilet seat up and we'll tell you when we launch our online store with a bunch of non-meat related stuff we've designed.
you like what what we're up to? well then speak up and tell us. if not, our ears are open to constructive criticism.
we'll keep updating our new space here with more pics and details about us, so don't be a stranger.
cheers!

My Interests

a medium rare ribeye with a side of mashed! did we mention we like tequila?

I'd like to meet:

anyone out there who appreciates art - hello! we know you're out there.
use the comment section below to tell us if you're a meat or a potato.
don't know what that means? well then, what do you think it means?...

Music:

our tastes are diverse, we listen to just about everything. so much that we can't agree on what to listen to in the studio. so you'll usually find us each with headphones on.
mostly we're busy designing cd packaging for bands & artists like: sublime, sergio mendes, she wants revenge, new found glory, semisonic, abandoned pools, new radicals, tommy lee, methods of mayhem, kidneythieves, live, aerosmith, sammy hagar, les paul, herb alpert, matthew sweet & suzanna hoffs, reo speedwagon, merle haggard, the angel, 60 channels, sub.bionic and helmet to name a few. but don't just take our word for it, check out our site!

Movies:

well, we've wasted more than a few dollars to sit in a dark, cold, room with sticky floors and random sneezes wondering which way is the exit if the power goes out. so we tend to find ourselves renting dvd's from time to time. we definetly have opinions about what's good and what's not, so don't get us started.
with that said we'll tell you we design dvd packaging from time to time. the midnight oil has been burned working on these projects: the bourne collection, new line 40th anniversary collection, 9 to 5, butch cassidy & the sundance kid, raging bull, the good the bad & the ugly, steve mcqueen collection, martin scorsese collection, the big lebowski achiever's edition, midnight cowboy, the manchurian candidate, the magnificent seven...and the list goes on.

Television:

really, who has time for it?
we've been designing dvd packages for alias (seasons 2-5) and some classics like the electric company, that girl, magnificent 7, law & order and mystery science theater 3000 volumes 8 -12 (now that's quality entertainment).

Books:

ok if you really want to know, we like to read...and sometimes we design a few book covers too: tommyland by tommy lee & anthony bozza, inxs story to story, by inxs & anthony bozza, jimi hendrix - scuse me while i kiss the sky, take me to the river by peter aslon (a last big poker hoorah before settling down and getting married) new free chocolate sex (funny book about sex in a choclate factory). high school confidential (undercover ex-cia poses as a student), snoop dogg's "love don't live here no more." sting's lyric book

we suggest picking up a good book and reading every once in a while. you can't spend all your life on myspace!
