About the Thrill Guy...
and his warped/musician

(was that redundant?)

creators.

So what's all the fuss about? It's all about this little guy we call the "Thrill Guy". This is the result of two musicians looking for another way to support our habit of buying more music gear. And thanks to you...it's the latest thing! We're so excited that you love our little guy as much as we do. He was drawn on a shopping list while we were eating hamburgers, and we liked him so much that we took the shopping list, scanned it, and declared it our logo. He makes us smile...and that was our whole purpose in coming up with a t-shirt design.

I'm Leslie Wright (www.lesliewright.com) and I'm a singer/songwriter...didn't know I was also going to be a t-shirt designer! My partner is Jay Mischel, who is one of the soundmen at the music theater where I perform. (Check them out at www.hoedown.net!) I'm always ready to start a new business, and Jay wanted to make some extra cash...so we put our heads together. I thought a t-shirt business would be fun with designs to make people laugh. I decided a logo with custom slogans would be our trademark.

I started out with a vision of a monkey face, but I'm no artist. So I decided that just a big tooth grinning face would be the thing...surely I could draw that. So while we were grilling some burgers, I grabbed mom's shopping list and started playing around. We fell in love with this guy, who was about the 3rd or 4th one I drew. I tried and tried to recreate him on plain paper, but something about this guy was a one in a million sketch. We loved him and there was no recreating him. So I scanned the shopping list and edited out all the blue lines and butterflies in the background. 3 hours later, the "Thrill Guy" was digitally ready!

Then we called up our local screen printing and embroidery company, T-Shirt Techniques, who helped us make our vision come to life! We started out with some off the wall slogans just to get our little guy circulating. Thanks to you, Thrill Guy can be seen in many places...with more to come! We are so excited to offer you custom designed shirts so you can express your thrill. Please come back and see us...we look forward to seeing your thrills!

Thank you for making this so much fun!
