Our Royal festivities have really halted traffic on the City streets, it's a quiet day. No internet at home means posts will be affected on here perhaps. For now here's an owl I drew...
and a reminder that this little Toby Shuall treat...
have gifted you a day off this Friday and you're in the market for new skateboard product for the Weekend you're in luck. Lots of new boards coming in plus we have new stock from these guys...
For this Weekend this will be in-store only so pay us a visit and have a look through. We also have new Converse Be sure to check out a recent Paddy Jones edit made by Wob over at PWBC
It is Real! Ignore the date though it's the 23rd. Unfortunately (in a way) it's not the launch of that heart stopper it's another night of music. Come to Double Down to see Hops, Edson and myself playing music for you-no kiss from a rose this time round but who said anything about Ini Kamoze. This guy's...
Return to Blighty is imminent. Also his shoe is out! and you can buy yours Here!
Had a fun skate through the City last night and visited old haunts. Did the run through Shell centre and down towards Victoria via Parliament square. Dodged a lot of tourists trying to re-create this...
Spent a little time looking at the river, I like trying to Men in Black myself and imagine I'm seeing things for the first time-hard to do. Case in point is nonchalantly walking through clambering tourists tripping over Big Ben without giving it a good look. The journey through Shell and down to Viccy benches reminded me of these times...
I've been experiencing a mixture of emotions. My faithful friend Martha the mule has been a cruel mistress of late. There was a sequence of unfortunate events culminating in her becoming a one gear machine, the wrong gear. Technically I have been bmx'ing around in third for a few days after a puncture fest. Good news came from this, I now have a new whip. The grasshopper...
My Elswick machine has had the Fred Bennet and Wob once over and made it's way into my hands via Gaz and the kind transportation of Jackson. Make it's acquaintance...
Some rudeboys saw Jackson pushing it home via his yard and said "pardon me old chap" then cracked up laughing, it's doing a fine job already. J Mascis was amazing last night, he started with the Wagon and killed it from then on in with an acoustic set, interspersed with that familiar electric whine we all know and love. It was a great show. Then today he came in here and hung out and left with a bear t-shirt...
He was a nice guy. Buy his new album. Have a good weekend and be sure to check out the new HUF drop.
Slam's been busy, internet has been bad at home and I've been off the radar. i have noteworthy images for you from the last few days though. Here's Luigi enjoying a Turkish pizza...
This was after 3 croissants, a Chipotle chicken burrito and a samosa but helped him through the hour or so before a Chicken Shish ender. Admirable extreme eating from Ludwig. Graham managed to capture his prey as always this Sunday...
Here's some me trivia you may or may not find interesting. Digging this stuff out was prompted by the news that the Monkees are set to tour again. This I would be more excited about if Michael Nesmmith was in on it. If you aren't familiar with Michael Nesmith I assure you he's the man...
The Monkees stoked me out as a kid, this was my first album...
and it got a rinse out. My dad took me to see them on this tour...
We saw them in Hammersmith. When their cars showed up at the back doors he pushed me under the barriers and said run to that car, handing me my cassete. Davy Jones' wife greeted me and sure enough I got it signed...
Fell out of an Emerica someone was trying on. What an eventful day. Spotted this house appendage on my travels last night...
Jackson baby dangling. More importantly whilst on the subject of babies are overdue congratulations to Toby and Claire, good work, hope you enjoy some down time.
