HOPI

Been into these things lately:

Grave dirt, hand cannons, Lapham's Quarterly, Mjolnir, Smash Ink(Teal Legit), Celtic Lolita, Steve Martin circa 1989, Chaos Magic, the Hopi, Des Marches St. George, Faberge, Norse Projects, Carrot and Raisin Manna Bread, and especially Russian Jump Styles

Don't like these things:

Diapers, pellet style cat litter, sunburns, chongos, conscious hip hop, longboards, dreadlocks on white techno hippies, animal abusers, the amount of time it takes oil paint to dry, rattlers, hogweed

Going on tour for the first time next week. Psyched to see friends in Oakland, SF, and LA, and to play shows with cool bands like SCREAM and Belle & Sebastian. Bye!

 We ride for free. Big cankles.

Highpockets/Bootknife in a hole in a grain car on a train bound for somewhere you've never been and would be bummed to end up.

Sorry for the lack of updates here, but I've been busy acting wild, shooting guns, riding trains, doodling, working a cool job, taking paid vacations to new zones, drinking Bulliet, eating sour keys, hanging with all types of fools, getting new tattoos, playing shows, wearing striped shirts, growing fancy hair and a beard, making jam, dine & dashing, playing records, climbing mountains, and having a truly awesome Summer. 

Going on tour next week, so there probably won't be another update for a little while. Bye!!!

Easy Recognition. Fuck 'em 2011.

ERASURE

We should talk some time. 

SINEAD

She's so insanely good, and I feel like a foolish fool for sleeping on this song for so long. A friend showed it to me last Summer. Hard to believe it's already been that long. Craze.

Always glad to see the Watchman's work.

Papal Throne

Home Turf. About halfway between Crescent and Whiterock beach, there's a clothing optional spot for swimmering, minus naked hippies and crowded potential for encountering coworkers or friends. The water is much nicer, the beach is way rockier. 

Mr. H. Pockets waiting to hop an Eastbound train, sharpening a drawing implement, and wearing funny shoes. We waited for 12 hours or something, then...

....This came. 

Spotted? NBD! Dude is our friend now, and thinks painting on trains is cool. 

Relish is the dude.

Here are some pictures I took over the past couple of weekends. Wasted Youth Gang-FTW.

Here we have Mr. H. Pockets doing badness.

 06. Saw this one today, 5 years later, probably in the same yard that it was done. Could very well have been to Mexico, Miami, or Missouri since then.

GOD ROX! Not too sure about that, incredibly awesome piece regardless. A miracle of colour/composition. 

One of my favourite hangout spots. It's an old and shitty bridge over the Fraser River near Hope, BC. Today i sat on the beams and read a book about something. Best spent afternoon in a minute. 

This is nearing the top of one of the supporting beams. The ladder is sketchy as fuck, and there's at least 80 feet of it below where this picture was taken, but the view from the top is real cool. The bummer thing is climbing through a tiny hole onto the top of this pillar, kind of like the Lion's Gate. 

Rick is still raging wildly out of control. 

 

Here is a Hoary Marmot. He was really upset at me for coming too close to his hangout, and wouldnt stop chirping. Sorry for the crappy pic.

Here is a fancy Squirrel. Funny how a single woodland creature can bring back all kinds of silly memories and sad feelings. Win some, lose some. Ce la vie. 

Black Capped Chickadee on my hand. FTW!

More to come. In an hour, goo time.

Go-it-go-it-go, it-do-it-do-it-do/Look at my wild restless body

I've been into T-ara for a minute now. On Mother's day me and Peggy, and a special friend went to the Westender for dinner, and I finally asked an actual Korean what the name of the band was who sang the "go-it-go-it-go" song was. T-ara! There are tons of other awesome Kpop bands, but I think T-ara  and DalShabet are the best. They're like the Pipettes but not middle-aged English byrds. Peggy really liked the Korean food, and got  more than a bit drunk on Chum Churum, which, as is the custom with most Korean things, is the cutest name for a punishing alcoholic beverage.

Possibly the cutest any human has ever been, ever. 

Complete and Total Baldness/Nag Champa/Ripping Metalum

I will be completely and totally bald in a couple of years, tops. I'm already well on my way, despite having the longest hair I've had in years. Eventually I'll just embrace it, but for now I'm fighting it with all I've got. I want one ultra huge dreadlock coming out of the top of my head, like the dude from Steel Pulse or whatever....this fool......

Obviously my dread will be blonde, and I'm not asian.....nor would I ever be caught dead in a salmon hued shirt. Ughhhh. 

Been listening to this while I run lately.....

I think the Vancouver goth craze is kind of done, but how tight would it be to show up at a friend's house warming party in this? Oppressively cool.

On the nonsense tip, I saw the following creatures this past weekend:
