Beck’s Vier and the massive fuck up.

How wrong is this?
When a beer company approaches you and offers up two free pint glasses featuring limited edition ‘artwork inspired by music’ (and some badges), start seeing red. You may remember some of Beck’s’ earlier campaigns such as getting up and coming artists to produce art for their bottles, or perhaps Damien Hirst’s tiresome thirsty work for the German brewer.
Regardless, this campaign is about beer and art inspired by music.

This is not a review. This is a memory.
I was 25 and living in Birmingham. Billy called me up and said, “Ash. We’ve got a spare ticket for the Academy tonight. Queens Of The Stone Age are playing.”
I’d no idea who they were, but Billy was a good friend of mine, and this was a free night out. When you’re an aspiring, failing musician in Birmingham – this is no bad offer.
