Both NASSes i've been to have been ammaazziingggg. In that Tower Hill KFC on a BMX ride with about 20 BMXers down there. Started having ice fights, i was just sneaking up to put tons down someones back when someone else came up behind me and bagsied me. Both trousers and boxers In a super busy London KFC on a saturday LMAO! Everyone, little kids and all turned to look. I looked down shocked, looked up and around for a bit. Cracked up and couldn't stop laughing and then casually packed everything back up and caned the boy with ice haha. Any good summer days down the trails with a barbeque and alot of people digging. Buying some shitty thin poundland rope and using it to create a hoist system between trees to suspend me about 30ft up above the jumps so i could take photos and footage. As they let me down and i was about 6ft off the ground the point where 2 ropes met causing friction burn and burning through a rope so that i fell straight to the ground on my arse Trains to Horsham skatepark, opening the toilet door on this random man doing a shit etc. Seeing this dodgy guy go in to the toilet rolling up a spliff and then the trains smoke alarm going off and the train stopping for about 30 minutes an the guy coming out stinking of green looking really embarassed My friend explaing to abour 5 MASSIVE black guys why they didnt want to mug him for his phone because it was a shitty £30 thing and the camera was broke (it wasn't) and getting away with it after about 10 minutes of just giving them cheek hahaha. Any of the encounters with power hungry security guards who always dreamed of being policeman. RUnning rings around them and winding them up. Watford skatepark jam. OK so maybe that's a bit more then three. Theres waaayyyy to many to list. Good times

Yes man, nice one. When you last posted this site i was really impressed so i used to check back a fair bit for updates but there was always nothing. Then i lost my bookmarks and forgot about it so this was a pleasant reminder and it's good to see some updates on there All the videos in the inspiration page never bore me however many times i watch them.

If i understood that right, then thanks for your concern haha

f**k all on tonight First friday/saturday in in aaages so thats pretty depressing. Got a few stencills and stuff i wanna put up later so if it stops raining i'll probably just go wander the streets and do that. S'all good.
-
I don't really worry about it at all. Mainly because i know i eat really healthy. I'm a vegitarian which although could be argued as not being healthy in itself it certainly keeps me away from McDonalds etc and i still eat good fish alot to get the protein in. Cook alot of meals from scratch. Straight up love salads etc. Don't eat alot of chocolate/sweets. Rarely have pizzas and barely ever the proper greasy fast food type ones. Eat alot of organic an fresh stuff. S'alll good Somehow i still put on a belly though, but i think that's more full of beer.

Doesn't that thought creep you out Being watched everywhere you go and stuff. Just the thought of being watched by someone you can never see i don't really like. And i aso think being watched everywhere would just be an easy excuse for police to do you for every little menial crime we're all guilty of commiting just to raise there stats and become leet police officers. Meh, this maybe just the stencill artist in me talking

I voted the middle one, purely because it's the closest to what i think. But it's not really spot on. I think CCTV is a good idea in escence but am also worriedabout the whole big brother thing. I hate the fact that the government could see you anywhere you are in public and if there ever is a corrupt government it's something that could f**k us over and give them too much power. It's gone too far imo. How far will it go? Train stations, important government buildings, private cctv fair enough but just random streets and stuff
-
Good stuff, but not really my thing to be honest. Not sure why but they (those kidnda tracks in general not just yours) sound like they're missing something. Dunno really. Well put together though

A local promotor i'm kind of involved with Goulash just got this guy, Kevin Tuffy for an acoustic night this saturday. Hadn't heard of him before but I actually love his stuff The song with Sway called 'Clouds' is awesome, really good vibe to it when Sway comes in.

Mine arrived today too Awesome. Listening to the intro mix at the minute which i think is a really nice touch and a good mix i got this message haha: Nice one Mike And if anyones unsure about buying then STFU and get on this.

Banksy is a legend in my eyes. And you can't really blame this guy for selling it but i do agree with Joe that Banksy has put this on the streets rather then on canvas so that everyone can see it, which selling it spoils. I'd also be really annoyed if someone sold a piece i had done on a wall for more money i'll ever see in my life though haha. But Banksy has done well for himself anyway i guess. The only thing that annoys me about Banksy (well, not about Banksy but what other people think of him) is how much attention he gets when there are so many artists who do amazing street art yet will go un-noticed their whole lives. People market him as some massive, original, founder of street art type guy when this is nothing new. But then again, this happens in all types of art and everything else, and Banksy deserves it for how well he's publicised himself and how much effort he puts in. I don't personally think he's sold out either. Someone who had sold out would be doing only legal walls and canvases, not creeping round Portabello Road in the middle of the night with the police on their back. Selling canvases is just a way to help get his message to other types of people rather then just the typical people who would take note of street art.

Looks awesome What kind of methods did you use for the actual portrait part? Did you see Shepard Fairey's exhibition at Stolen Space aswell? Some awesome stuff there.

Yer i guess so, just didn't quite add up i thought. They seemed pretty intelligent to lay that trap with the dummy. But yer i thought it was really good. But at the same time i can also see why people would be dissapointed with it for some reason, i'm not sure why, just seemed to end abruptly and also because not alot happened in comparison to many other films. All happened in one place just following his standard daily routine for most of the film.
-
But what i don't get is when the patch of light had dissapeared it was just as light as any area of the city in shadow during the daytime. Surely the dogs could roam the streets during the day as long as they kept to the shadows (most of the streets in a city with so many high buildings)?

Happy new year everyone! 2007 ended with probably the most mental (but not nessesarily the funnest at times) night of the year for me. Bring on 2008! Seriiously tripped me out though when i woke up drunk at 4:30pm an it was pitch black outside. 2008- the apocolypse.
-
Oh my god i'm such an idiot! why? I think someone could find my address fairly easily from my name to be honest. Once i recieve the DVD i'll take it down just for you
-
Goin to this random boys house party which is pretty much open house so should be a bit mental haha. I was up for going to this club party in london we were offered guest list for but other people don't want to

Ok, everything in my Paypal (the measly sum of £7.16 ) has been sent to prawn16@hotmail.com. My address is: Taken down for Alex So if you could send a CD whenever you get the chance/it's all confirmed that would be awesome
-
Theres a fair few remote flashes going on in that picture. And they're likely to be below him so shadow would be going upwards into the sky. Mental line though. The new Ride US cover is pretty nutty too.

Teenage Angst Communal Agony Aunt Thread
Max Quinn replied to Has anyone seen my shoe?'s topic in Chit Chat
Ok i no this is what everyone will say and it seems stupid but you WILL get over her. Believe me. It may not seem like it now but with it being your first kinda girlfriend (i think you said that?) its kinda normal to get clingy an stuff, just look at fatpants He was saying all the same stuff about that Hayley bird but now seems to be ovber her, other girls come along. If shes getting with everyone in a room and then acting at all angry at you for getting with someone i don't think you wanna be with her, it will just end in tears. It sounds harsh but she seems like shes just playing you and likes the attention, sorry man .
