Funny Cartoon about George Washington

Random Song Find…

So, I was schlepping around my computer the other day and found this old Prince remake that I recorded vocals for  with Justin Golden of Ellery on guitar, mandolin and washing machine… I figured, “Heck, stick it on the blog!”

Enjoy! p.s. I think the your volume needs to be kinda high

“I Would Die for You”

BLDGrefuge.com – Week 1

Week 1 of our gallery website has passed and it went rather swimmingly. I can say I feel good that my expectations of our “hottest” print was correct, as it was the first one sold (to London no less) and the most sold print from our current catalog…

Destroy & Rebuild’s “Orange”

I am fairly hopeful as to what RMBLS will do on our site as well… being that he uses some of my photos, I am rooting for him!

Make sure to check out the site when you get a chance!

VACATION!!!

So I’m on vacation all week… I suppose to be vacationing from the internet, but how impossible is that. Not sure if resort I’m in has internet, but if it does, I’ll stay on top of it here, if not… I’ll be back next week.

Cheers.

Rad Street Art/Modern Art Blog

Okay, so I don’t do this much (read: never) but you should check out this rad art blog called Walls. It’s not that avant garde over your head, insider crap art either. It’s street art, modern art, visual art that is relatable. Anyway, check it out, it’s worth your time.

iSnort… yeah, I’m gonna need this.

Bad Veins Shoot

Last Friday I shot Bad Veins for Dangerbird Records. It went well. Ben and Sebastien are two great guys and easy to work with. We shot some of their first promo shots “sans military outfits” we’ll see how those look, perhaps a new look? Anyway be on the look out for those, the film comes back from the lab today!

Here’s one of their songs to tide you over. It’s called “Gold & Warm” Listen to it!

eBay DRAMA!!!!

So I bought a Dalek print on eBay from some douchebag in NJ (which should have been my first clue right there) He sends me a piece that has bent corners, scratches, creases and pressure indents on it. I shoot him an email and as khim about it and he says it was in “perfect” condition when he sent it. Then tries to tell me he mailed it on April 4th (and it’s now April 29th) or else he’d refund it. I say he’s lying because the auction went up on April 19th and he gets pissed because I “called him a liar” (stupid is as stupid does)

Anyway long story short, he says I’m lame for returning the piece and I know “nothing about art” because art is about the artist’s vision not bent corners… tell that to Steve Wynn who put his hand through an original Picasso… he should have sold it anyway, it’s about the vision!!!

My advice: BE CAREFUL BUYING ART ON EBAY!!!!!

The Red House Furniture Commercial

This is really a commercial, which makes it phenomenal!!!

Darwin Exhibit Tour Bafoonery!!!

AIKO

Phenomenal artist, formerly part of FAILE, now out on her own… rad to stuff. My favorite is the her screen printing on the mural just by standing on the screen… crazy!

Last Call with Carson Daly – Mr. Brainwash

Okay, literally, Carson Daily, is a douche bag. No clue what he is talking about. Mr. Brainwash is NOT the most recognizable street artist in the world… at all. He IS however the most recognizable rip off street artist, look at his work… then subtract Shepard Fairey, Banksy, D*Face and Faile from it…. AND YOU’VE GOT NOTHING LEFT!!!!!!!!!

The guy’s a spooge, a knock off, a wanker, a fake, phoney, poser, you name it, he’s it…. and Carson Daily is still a douche bag for acting like he knows what he’s talking about.

Jones’ Big Ass Truck Rental and Storage #2

…and the second one…

Jones’ Big Ass Truck Rental and Storage #1

From the man who brought you Jones Good Ass Barbecue and Foot Massage comes:

Roman “The Carnie” Titus

Here’s a story:
After I moved back from Hungary to the states, I was working in flooring (carpet, hardwood, tile, vinyl) My boss at the time who was amazing (he was featured in High Times 3 times for the shit he grew, but that’s another story) He decided he wanted to get into the carnie business. So he made himself two hog smokers out of old propane tanks… like the big ones that 4 people could fit into. Then he called it, “The Smoking Hog” cus he liked to smoke big fat hogs. He would yell things like, “Let us get our meat in you!” or “Once you eat my meat, you’ll want more!” One carnival he could make it, so he asked me and a friend to run it for him. I told him, “No.” Then he made me do it.

Worst Day of my Life. We pulled up with a van load of stuff and a trailer with two huge hog roasters on it. I put the van in park to ask where we go, but it was on an incline and when I got back in the van, I could get it out of park. It was right in the road so no one could by either. Everyone was honking at us and we ended up getting out and sitting on the side of the road and making songs about Pork Sandwiches to the tune of Ben Harper’s “Burn One Down” Then AAA came, towed the van and we pushed the roasters into place. We hooked up our serving table and somehow the electric was shorted in it and when I touched it, it electrocuted me and shorted completely out. By then the meat had gotten under 165 degrees, the Health Inspector came and said we couldn’t sell it and she made us throw away like 50lbs of pork. She talked us into staying and we ended up selling corn on the cob for a dollar an ear… we sold like 15 ears. We had to sleep there that night, cus we had no vehicle. Finally, the next morning, we got picked up and I quit the carnie business.

So that’s my story about my shittiest day ever.

Feel free to share yours!

Graffiti Research Lab + Samsung

Pretty rad “light graffiti” or whatever…

Not sure what this is… but what the hay!

I stumbled across this on an Australian Surfing Motorcylce website blog… Lover’s Land Super cool site, BTW. I’m not sure what this is all about, or how it ties into the what they are doing other than to say the hippie surfer lifestyle is crazy. I thought I’d slap it up here though, cus who doesn’t like a topless loon covered in sand swingin’ around weights on chains?
