MERRY KISSMAS!

The holiday card for 2023 from Lou and Darla has been unveiled! Entitled Deck the Halls Over it pays homage to the classic album cover art of Rock and Roll Over from KISS. The card art was designed by the amazing Alan MacBain based on the original cover art by Michael Doret. It was chosen to pay tribute to The End of the Road Tour wrapping up over the holiday season.

The cards are limited to just five-hundred copies! However, to get one, you must give one! Send a card to Lou & Darla – PO Box 361 – Arnold MD 21012. You do NOT need to include self-addressed stamped envelope, just send a holiday card with your return address clearly visible.

UPDATE: There has been an overwhelming response to the card this year. The initial run of cards is now gone BUT there has been a second printing ordered of one-hundred. If you’ve sent a card already, we should have you covered. However, you may not see your return card until just before or just after Christmas itself. UPDATE: All cards are now completely gone. Thanks!

RUDOLPHER: THE 2022 HOLIDAY CARD

The 2022 holiday card from Lou and Darla has been unveiled! Entitled Rudolpher it’s a mashup of the Revolver album cover from The Beatles and the Rankin/Bass classic Christmas specials. Card art was again done by the legendary Alan MacBain based on the original cover art by Klaus Voormann. Each card has been hand/paw/hoof signed by Lou, Santa, Darla, and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

There are a limited amount of cards available. To get one, you must give one! Send a card to Lou & Darla – PO Box 361 – Arnold MD 21012. You do NOT need to include self-addressed stamped envelope, just send a holiday card with your return address clearly visible.

@LOUBRUTUS ON TIKTOK

Wanna see some of the coolest and rarest music memorabilia in the history of Western Civilization? Check out @LouBrutus on TIKTOK! He’s primarily using his account to post pieces from his fabled collection of concert and music industry souvenirs. Hit the links to see a mask from Paul Gray of Slipknot, a guitar signed by all four original members of Motley Crue, an autographed makeup kit from Mudvayne, a hand-decorated tambourine from Stevie Nicks, an original 1976 “Destroyer” poster autographed by all of KISS, a backstage sign from the Molson Polar Ice Beach Party tagged by both Metallica and Veruca Salt, as well as a Jim Root stage guitar from the first Slipknot tour that’s been signed by all nine members. There are tons of other vids and Lou is adding several new ones each week. Follow his account here.

Brutus will be taking time over the holiday season to further organize this collection of ticket stubs, backstage passes, laminates, set lists, posters, guitar picks, and the other music memorabilia. He estimates there are more than ten thousand individual pieces all told. The plan is to present a proposal in January 2023 to publishers for a coffee table book of the pieces entitled One Man – Three Thousand Concerts: The Greatest Collection of Rock N Roll Shit in History. Interested publishers can reach out directly to Lou’s agent in the literary world Bob Diforio of the D4EO Literary Agency here.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS 2021

Tis the season to unveil this year’s holiday card art from LB and Darla the Wonder Dog!

This Christmas the card was inspired by the Star Wars universe with Lou appearing as Han Solo and Darla as a Chewbacca the wookie, complete with a bandolier made of bones! As in previous years, the art for the card was done by Lou’s longtime partner in artistic crime Alan MacBain.

To get a card, you must send a card! The address is Lou & Darla – PO Box 361 – Arnold MD 21012. Cards are on a first come, first served basis while supplies last. Each card is hand-signed by Lou and Darla. We’ll also include Lou’s “Sonic Warrior” guitar pick, Darla’s Metallica-themed “Master of Puppies” guitar pick, and a metallic rainbow “Fear and Loathing at the North Pole” sticker.

UPDATE: The “Fear and Loathing at the North Pole” stickers are now gone! However, we’ll include another sticker in its place for the remaining cards.

UPDATE: We are sorry to say we are now out of this year’s Star Wars-themed cards BUT we will send a card from a previous year year in its place. All cards are signed by Lou and Darla. Plus, you’ll still get the guitar picks and a sticker, too!

Thank you and Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
