Elevator Hell!

We went to SD to see a Gogol Bordello show. Which was insane by the way. If you play two encores lasting over an hour, you're kinda kick-ass in our book. The hotel we stayed in was sick, and all thanks to Florian. there was one catch though, the elevators.... Those things were from the 50's, as was the whole hotel. They used to be the fasted elevators in the world, and people from all over would come stay at the hotel to ride the elevators. Well now-a-days, the things are super sketchy and super slow. People were constantly getting stuck in them and ringing the alarm. Vannester and Florian were the first in our group to get stuck and we had a good time laughing at them through the viewing hole. They should really update those things...The view from the St. James hotel in San Diego, California.

The Pricks! at the Galaxy

The Pricks finally played a show at the Galaxy Theater! So close to home, they enjoy a large crowd of local maniacs. I believe there was only one fight! ...and other than that the show went kick ass and everyone enjoyed a grand ole time in the backyard. Special thanks to VZ's Randy for helping out the "list" that was shortened at the last minute. Those pricks just have a huge family following.

Getty'd!

Went to the Getty with the better half. I remember riding the tram before, so I guess I've been there; must have been awhile ago though. The old paintings are old and some of the new are grand.
The garden, green as usually.
The Getty and it's view of LA.
I sheet I slit; and on the slitted sheet I sit.

Will Shit's Bday

His birthday was a little while ago, but he's such a good little shit kid, we just have to show some love anyway. Everyone showed up at Will's house; many dressed in a white shirt with a denim pocket in high praise of Will's favorite shirt who always wears. Maddness ensued at his house until the kegs ran dry and the bottles were broken. Then it was time for the ultimate Sally Rally, and nessecary group photo. good thing too because Will lives on top of a hill and on the way down there was a terrific bike accident. The girl on the right of the group photo, rode on Alan's handle bars (first mistake) down the hill and a sideways running drainage ditch fucked up their whole deal. Rumor has it she went face first and spent the rest of the summer hiding in doors. Happy Birthday Will Shit.

Water Tried to Kill Me screening at WaveHouse, SD

ShoresCrew sponsored a party at the WaveHouse and showed the new movie, Water Tried to Kill Me. The SD Reagee band, One Drop played followed by The Shy's and then DJ Dax. The usual art, booze and stunts made the night a sucess. There was even live art by a couple grafitti artists. With five hours of free wave riding, everyone had a blast either falling on the thing or laughing at those who did.Captain throwing heat.

Billabong's Trilogy Sneak Premiere

While we were in Bali, Billabong rented out The Balcony at UN's hotel and had a super sneaky pre-premiere of their new surf flick: Trilogy. Trilogy stars their top boys: Andy Irons, Joel Parkinson and Taj Burrow. It was pretty good, a few notable slashes and punts. Stoked they used Placebo for the music in one of the parts. Other than that, I'll wait for Campaign3Andy Irons blurred cutty
The crowd at UN's consisted of the Billabong team who was around at the time: Occy, Dane Ward and crew
Open Tabs are good.
