OK, just read the first 4 pages as I haven't kept up with all the posts. I can bring plenty of fresh shrimp if it's after May when the shrimping season opens. Couple thousand should feed a few of us. Also sounds like we need to find a place that we are not driving! If I missed something I will read the rest of the posts a few pages at a time.

First thing I thought of was barrel of monkeys, and that was the first image I found in Google. I still like it, not sure how well it would translate to a one color graphic. Here is another take in that idea, though, 3 S's stacked, then rotated 120 degrees. Simple bold graphic, and still secret. I even once bought a shirt with graphic in black ink on a black shirt. Was really cool.

Or tribal it up with some serifs:

Not sure why these come in sideways, should be upright, like a pyramid
I'd like to see what three of the barrel monkeys look like in that pattern. I tried to do it on my tablet.. no dice.

Nice work, wooteck! That last sketch has a real "papazian" feel about it.
Would be awesome to see cornman brought to life at the 'shed. :D

Really cool design. It does look like a 45 spindle.
Could the monkeys be copper?

Yea!! That's right. In my head I was thinking it should be pink coincidentally. I just couldn't justify a different color. Maybe yellow. But that just remind me how much I hate yellow cars.. Corn yellow would make the most sense though.

I think that's kinda the idea. If you were walking down the street, and saw any shirt with the name Rad on it..you would smile, But everyone else would say "huh"? Who the heck is Rad?

I suppose it could be any tag line like, "Rad is my hero", or "I did it with Rad in the shed", and it would have the same effect. :thumbup:

Sounds like Woodstock in the Woodshed. I hope you have 20 acres for parking and tents and no rain and lots of electricity for the Jammin guitars on stage. I know Woodshed has had a few health issues and this will be a huge undertaking on his part. If anyone that is going has extra time that could spend volunteering to help get ready for event and volunteers to help clean up afterwards would be greatly appreciated. Even if Woodshed was 100% it is to much for 1 person or 1 family. The other thing that I see is money. My guess is it will cost lots to put this on. I would suggest everyone that attends force him to take $X (cash) to thank him for doing this to show appreciation or have 1 person take up money. I don't know Woodshed but I would say he is a proud man. Put the money some where and PM him after everyone is gone where it is.

I am hoping to keep the costs down for all.
Camping space is not a problem. Surrounded by National Forest with killer level sites with in a few seconds of the house.
We have space for one Rv that needs power.
If you are self sufficient in an Rv the options are wide open.

Thought we might take over a local brewery in town for a night. Wolfe brewery is into the idea. With enough people the place will be ours.
60+ would cover it. As far as the expense goes I will say this.

I plan on those that show up to come ready for the grill. Or oven, or boiling it up. And as stated in a previous post if you show up early or stay late we are good with that. And you can help setup or breakdown.
