WWE Smackdown x SF
…recently it was John’s bday. and since he’s one of the only grownass dudes left (that i hang around) that still, genuinely, no joke, like for reals, loves to watch WWE wrestling, i thought it was an awesome coincidence that Smackdown was coming to San Francisco right around the same time. so i bought up 2 tickets for me and him to go this past weekend.
we took the train up to...
BNE x Water Foundation
…CHECK THIS SITE OUT when you get a chance. it’s pretty damn tight what BNE wants to do (and is currently doing) with the underground art world. essentially, this NYC graffiti artist spent a good amount of time traveling the world putting his name up everywhere, on everything. and at some point he decided to use his name (which was only getting more and more popular [and noticed])...

“Brainfarts 4” x “Brainfarts 5” x Preview
…here are some preview shots of the new ALOVETOKEN releases titled “Brainfarts 4” and “Brainfarts 5”. i brought these zines up a few days ago, and mentioned that they are both awesome works that i am very stoked on. the ALT kids did a great job putting it all together and the pieces really tell a story as you flip the pages. from the original drawings and photographs...
Atlas x Praxis Launch Party
…the other day, i wrote about how ATLAS was asked to play a party for a new skateboard shoe company here in SF. Karl Watson is backing the whole thing, and he called up Diego to see if they would be interested in doing a set. so they say yes. and so the whole crew came out deep for the event. it’s tight to see Atlas play their shit live. (and if you don’t know what the hell...
Seattle Vacation x Part 3
…day 2 (continuation) of my trip to Seattle with Rachel. after we left the EMP museum, it started to rain, so we took a cab back down to the piers to check out the aquarium. and that was pretty tight. there was a 10-day old sea otter pup that was cute as hell and i got to touch a bunch of weird shit. after that, we headed over to Capital Hill to do some shopping and exploring. we checked out...
Seattle Vacation x Part 2
…day 2 was a complete day of stuff that me and Rachel wanted to do. we had planned to hit up the EMP museum, the Space Needle, the aquarium, about 3 different cupcake spots, anything else that Capital Hill had to offer as far as coolass shit goes, and of course the Cha Cha Lounge.
our first stop was this spot called Yellow Leaf Cupcake for breakfast, which was just a block away from our...
Seattle Vacation x Part 1
…about a week ago, Rachel and i went on a kinda-last-minute vacation up to Seattle for a few days. it was her first time there so we had a lot to do in the 50 or so hours that we were there. and shit started off right as soon as we landed: it was super sunny, the train that we needed to take to downtown was easy to find, our hotel was 3 blocks away from the station, and the hotel was an...

Pollock Pines Vacation x Part 3
…part 3. this was the last day we were up in Pollock Pines at the cabin we rented. and it was a nice needed chill day. most of which was spent walking around and exploring the area. and there was definitely a lot to see while on foot. creeks, huge trees, fallen trunks used as walkways/bridges, awesome views, and the homies. always the homies. love the homies. thanks for another memorable...
Pollock Pines Vacation x Part 2
here is part 2 (back up to the previous posts if you have no idea where the hell i am). this day included: enjoying the morning cabin-in-the-middle-of-nowhere life, hanging out by the river doing coolass river things, a fuck ton of bomb homemade veggie enchiladas, the classic family dinner, the flip-cup boyz vs girlz championship(s), drinking all kinds, more dance parties, and Shannon’s bday...
Pollock Pines Vacation x Part 1
…as i mentioned yesterday, a fat crew of us homies rented a cabin for the weekend and spent 72 hours hanging out, hard. the whole trip was ridiculously fun and the vacation was well worth the months wait and planning. but anyways, i took a lot of photos all weekend, so i’m just gonna split it up into 3 parts (consisting of the 3 days that we were there).
here is part 1. which...

the idea was to do a “take over” of his bar and give everything a DA spin. from the custom coasters and...
