That's Life

Damn, this is a good album.
It's on infinate repeat right about now.

Don't pretend. I know you're at it.

Indy To Axle

Ride the best.
Fuck the rest.

BUY BUY BUY!!!

No Comply: Skateboarding Speaks on Authority is now available

and you thought you knew...

Would someone tell me how this happened? We were the fucking vanguard of shaving in this country. The Gillette Mach3 was the razor to own. Then the other guy came out with a three-blade razor. Were we scared? Hell, no. Because we hit back with a little thing called the Mach3Turbo...

James Kitts lays it down

The Re-Count

I mean no disrespect, but these guys were my evening's backup band.
But it's a true GOOD PROBLEM, in every sense of the cliché, when you have two possum-awesome shows to pick from on a given evening, and then the universe lines up and you get to see both.
Thanks, universe.

Plus, in order to subsidize the $30+ ticket over at Rococo, when I walked in to Duffy's, dude brushed me through the door and said, "You're on the guest list."

That's what I've been trying to tell you for years, buddy.
Perma-guest.

Have my drink waiting for me when I roll through the door, and when I leave, announce my departure as if it's a sad moment for humankind.
It's the least you can do.
The Elected ripped the doors off.
See them as soon as you can.
Lincoln loves The Elected and The Elected loves Lincoln.

Tweed Amp

I know they look the same, but these are two photos from the Jeff Tweedy show that I somehow scored a ticket to.
It was cold out there and I talked to a buch of people who I wouldn't normally talk to.

They were all nice.

First one is just Jeff and his monitor guy. They make a lovely couple, don't you think?



Second one is of Jeff and drummer Glen Kotche who came out for around 6-7 songs. Nice sonic addition.

It was a 9.95-out-of-ten show — the missing five one hundredths were due to the lack of a proper drink at a place that makes the bartenders dress nice, and charges over $25 bucks to see a band.

F you, dudes.

Added bonus, scored a seat next to L. Kent and two nice dudes from 1% Productions (Marc and JIm?). All in all, a great night of central heat and acoustic music.

You missed out, bitch.

R.I.P.

Rest peacefully Mr. Harold Hunter.

Love and Anarchy

I am going to visit to Skatopia before I die.
Then after I die, I hope I go there too.

Here I Come

"Part of what The Residents are about is their camouflage, and any understanding of them must take into account both their organized sounds and their organized silence. The best this report can do is note the various statements and point out the gaps. Our knowledge is still incomplete. Anything is possible."
—Matt Groening, '79

Simulated Stereo

"Rock music is mostly about moving big black boxes from one side of town to the other in the back of your car."
—David Thomas of Pere Ubu

There is no place like Nebraska.

Okay, I think I got 'em all

I'll let you know.
Thanks for the hot tip, Nate.
700 x 40-45 tubes!
Woooo!

Action Jackson

"What happened to style and originality in skateboarding?" you ask.

It relocated to Australia and now goes by the name Richie Jackson.

Watch this and this.
You will soil yourself.

Flat Out Awesome

Yes!
That's a double flat, people.
Wilderness is prime, though. Get there RIGHT NOW and enjoy the warm conditions of whatever season this is.
You might want to avoid that limestone path that's out by the old Speedway Motors, just north of the park.
No less than fifteen goat heads in each tire, and that's a modest estimate.
Looking forward to using a needle nose and getting intimate with my Nanoraptors for a couple hours this Valentine's evening.

Cartoon

It's the end of the world.



PS
This photo has nothing to do with anything and whateverwise.

There was a darkish area with...points.

Park the Segway, slip on some cutoffs, and set the Teevo. It's time to pay our respects.

Tonight, the best show on television is leaving us.

Someday Fox will say "I've made a huge mistake".

Gem Sweaters!

This is Leslie. She is an artist, and an internet star. You will most likely be bombarded with her image, news of her hip-hop group and her sweaters throughout the next few months. She will have a large cult following, most likely be on a late night talk show or two, probably have some sort of documentary made about her, and will be in numerous "culture" magazines. People will immitate her, she will have this wierd sort of fame and then some other slightly strange thing will consume my daydreams. But for now, enjoy!
