How’s it going?

Before I begin, I cannot believe that you did the googley eyed Ice Cream cone sculpture at Little Baby’s Ice Cream. I rememebr going in there, ordering my cone, hugging that Ice Cream cone sculpture then leaving.

I love when you google Perry Shall the first thing that comes up is Perry Shall T-Shirt King.

How many t-shirts have you designed?

Do you wash your clothes? I feel like you have 365 days of a different t-shirt.

Art Director

How did you and Dan Auerbach first locked eyes and was like design for me.

What was it like to see your album artwork for the first time on television on a late night talk show?

Your own merch that you sell online is hilarious, “If you like the heat so much, why don’t you go to hell?” or “It’s Ok to not like the Grateful Dead” liek seriously the Grateful Dead sucks I don’t even think John Mayer likes it.

T-Time

I recently saw you and friend of the pod Matt Maust do a T-Time Tour Bus edition while they were on a Cold War Kids tour.

What’s the weirdest place anyone has ever done a T-Time?

What’s your favorite brand of t-shirt to wear? Vintage and today?

What’s the best T you have ever seen?

So I have a bunch of Vintage Art Tees and I want to embellish them, whats your take?

What do you like better vintage band tees or vintage art tees?

This is about to be a mini episode of T-Time because I’m about to whip out some vintage band tees on you lets go.

Hats OFF

Hats off to you on all these things that you do, for some Wear Many Hats Dahsar solutions would you ever make vintage merch for yourself for T-Time?

Ending

If you were to get a chest tattoo quote in olde english what would it be?

Plug your socials where can people find you?
