the man who takes the reigns when aj and myself are being lazy assholes turns 25 today, so be sure you hit him up via all of our various social networking sites and let him know how much you love him/how sexy he is/how you’re standing outside his window right now with a bottle of booze watching him (just me?). happy birthday brother.

and now we’re finally getting to our personal lists. we’ve decided to do a separate post for the each of us, so as to kindly not overshadow one another. for me, 2009 was a hell of a year musically. i discovered a lot of great new artists and even got into some artists i never would’ve never thought i’d be listening to.
i’m glad to say that i didn’t give into any of the overbearing hype of the band that shares my weworemasks pseudonym or any collectives this year, if not only for the principle. i saw a lot of great shows, and it’s safe to say that we’re all ready for 2010. let’s kick the new decade off correctly.
thanks to all the readers and especially all the loyals out there for sticking around after all this time. we’re going to do our best to kill it again this year.

that’s right, folks. happy (belated) birthday to us. two years ago, jerome and i kick started this blog out of sheer boredom of just being drunk and not being able to rant in a celebratory fashion about kanye west on the internet as freely as we wanted to. so on october 3, 2007, we dropped the first post. reading back, i can’t help but think of how awesome we still are.
from the days of yester-blogger, it’s not hard to remember the shoutbox and the lack of people who actually gave a shit about this blog outside of coming to steal the albums we had posted. it’s not hard to remember all of our incoming hits coming from blogsearch.google.com, either. in any case, let’s take a look back at this incredible year at the bear kingdom of weworemasks.
hit the jump and let’s do the damn thing.

sxsw was a grand time for the weworemasks familia. expect a bigger recap post later this week, assumingly by wednesday. here’s just some of the photos we decided to share with you. we didn’t necessarily take pictures of all the shit we saw, but here’s just a few of them. hit all the photos after the jump.
love.

i’m bored and we don’t have enough myspace friends. and a guy who knows a guy that has connects with someone that told him told me that myspace is the new cool way to make friends. so make sure you’ve added us. make sure your band/manager/sister/brother/mom/dad/cat has added us.
we’ve also been brainstorming for new features. we always welcome feedback on that tip. is there anything you think we’re missing out on? should be tweetering (aka online text messaging) with the rest of you assholes? is there some other cool website/device/feature/sexual position that we don’t know about? let us know family. and by the way, we love that you guys have been commenting more. it makes us feel warm and fuzzy.
as always, we love you but are too shy to tell you in person.

oh and don’t forget, we’re always taking submissions for the spotlight section. we’ll add info to the contact section soon so you/your band/one man banjo show/etc can find out more info on how to get in on that action.
