LUNCHTIME LOVE...

I went on a walk at lunch and found all this love.
I heart Denver.

PHOTO OF THE DAY...

Damn, this little guy is cool.

CREEPY COOL...

Fecal Face just reviewed the latest work of artist JennyBird Alcantra with her show "Treacherous Gardens" at Varnish Fine Art. I love her work and the intimate stories she is telling with her characters, settings, historical references and layering.

If I had to pick artist parents for her, I would say she is the child of Mark Ryden and Camille Rose Garcia. Enjoy.

ONE WORD... WOW...

I was perusing the ol' Juxtapoz blog the other day and found the work of Jesse Reno. After clicking on his site, I just kept going from painting to painting to painting. His work is infectious and it really spoke to me. It looks like the bastard child of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Jordin Isip.

My favorite quote from the Juxtapoz interview... "I don’t hustle people. I just hustle." Words to live by, my friends.

WHILE WE'RE ON THE SUBJECT...

Here is another great photographer that I stumbled upon while surfing the internet superhighway. His name is Keegan Gibbs. Also, be sure to stop by his blog. Enjoy.

AARONPHOTO UPDATES!...

My buddy Aaron Thackeray has updated his incredible photo portfolio site... and it's about damn time! If you want to see some of the best live music photography this side of Katmandoo, check out Aaron's work. And if you like the intelligently creepy late night ramblings of a mad man, check out his MySpace page.

OPENING NIGHT...

After some unexpected weather in Wyoming, Only Thunder and The Revenge decided to play a 2nd tour kickoff show in Denver at 3 Kings. That night they were also joined by local rockers Mustangs and Madras. Since they had played the night before at the same venue, this show was all about having a good time and putting on a great show for friends and fans.

Nick from Mustangs and Madras also joined each band on stage to cover 2 amazing songs - New Noise by Refused with The Revenge and Unsung by Helmet with Only Thunder. Check out my YouTube page to see videos of both of these, as well as other songs from the night. Enjoy.



Andy "Totally" Thomas and his long haired amigo were there and ready to rock. On a side note, this guy tried to steal a page out of a porno mag at the merch booth. No joke.


THE REVENGE


Mikey and his new custom Hackl guitar, made by our very own Justin Hackl.


Yes, that is a fetus inside. And yes, it lights up. So rad.




These guys always put on a fun show.

MUSTANGS AND MADRAS






Good night, kids.

I HEART MY HOLGA...

Here are a few random shots taken at a bus graveyard, run-down warehouses, the SF piers on 3rd Street and a friend's wedding. All done with my favorite $20 plastic camera, the Holga. No Photoshop here. Who needs technology?! Enjoy.

COOLEST BEER CAN EVER?

I think so.

HAPPY THURSDAY...

A man of few words... that says so much.
