Jazz Hands!

I've been a bit slow this month for one reason or another... largely due, I'm sure, to a week off from derbying 'round the beginning of the month, but also due to the holidays and other concerns. That said, it's about time to Fosse myself to throw out an entry.

Make up your own holiday theme. I came up with four ideas, but could only put my heart into 2 of them. Make your theme too open ended and the crazy ideas come out. This is probably my cleanest execution of all of them, and it did relatively decently. I just don't love it myself. It's the text. The hands also make it female unfriendly. Still, this blog's for your opinions, if you're out there. Perhaps there is a small, unrepresented Jazz Hands society that would love this. Gimme some love. Or some hate. Anything constructive is helpful.

I had no clue about "jazz hands" until I saw this shirt, and at first blush I thought it was boob joke. When I saw the designer, I knew it wasn't... but I still didn't get it so I had to go to Wiki to figure out what you were talking about. Thanks for enlightening me!

I like this shirt. I wonder if it should have a date on it. After considering the premise, I thought, when is Jazz Hands Day?

Probably June 23rd, which would be Bob Fosse's birthday. It'd make the whole design more relevant, but it also goes against my deep-seated fear of too much text. A suggestion worth considering, though.

You already used one of the ugliest typefaces possible (and it works for the shirt) so you shouldn't be afraid of more text. Fosse's birthday (without explanation) would be icing on a cake of wonderful absurdity.
