video’s are the new women

so i’ve been reading the usual blogs that i run thru, thehundreds.com, todarrinhudson.com, and various friend’s blogs, and i’ve noticed that no one posts pictures any more. everyone is using their video settings to post small video clips of what they’re doing. so i thought to myself, “self, why don’t you join the self-loathing society and do the same!” and here are my results…

i’ve been diggin’ thru old cd’s and mixtapes and i came across a mixtape that i got sometime in 200?. its the greyone mixtape when the recently remodeled their colorado location (now soul assassins.) one of the best mixtapes i have ever been given! thx endo for the great mix and even better memories. below is foreign legion – everyone’s sleeping.




i’ve been at a coffee shop now for about 2 hours. amped off of caffeine and nicotine; i am surfing the internet and chatting it up with friends online. i can’t do this at home because my roommates continuously download porno, play online video games and have balls of fun, while i curse at my computer because my download speeds are as slow as female asian drivers. but the environment of a coffee house is enough to put my resentments at ease.

Chicks to Dicks

Have you heard?  Chick’s Sporting Goods has been bought out by Dick’s Sporting Goods. (Besides a switch in letters on the name I have no idea what the difference is. So don’t ask me.) Word on the street is that Chick’s is in the hole about $30 mil and Dick’s bought them for like $40 mil. So you do the math. Check it.

One of those stores is nearby so I’ll keep an eye out on these supposed 10-50% deals. By the way, anybody been by a Circuit City lately? Has their “clearance” gotten any better than the previous 20-30% off?

OMG of the Day #1

given to a friend of mine from her boyfriend…


Goorin Brothers 44% off Sale!

So I was in Melrose with the hunnie for Valentine’s Day. We went into our favorite hat store Goorin Brothers . The both of us got some really cool hats thanks to a dope sale they are doing. It’s called the President’s Day hat sale where fans of Goorin choose a hat to send to Obama himself. Along side that, there is a petition where you choose your favorite hat from the store and take a picture in the store in front of a picture of the Capitol building. That in turn is your 44% off coupon for your favorite hat. AMAZING! Check out the website for the SALE.

Here are some pics from our outing:

Live shows will never die


Coloring Book?!

So from the artist, Aye Jay Morano that created the Gangsta Rap Coloring Book,

there’s a Heavy Metal Coloring Book, and a Punk Rock Fun Time Activity Book on the way!
with the Heavy Metal Coloring Book, now you can color in Metallica, Pantera, and help complete Eddie from Iron Maiden

And also help Spinal Tap get through a backstage maze.
The Punk Rock version is being released in April and readers will get to draw in Henry Rollins’ tattoos, color in Patti Smith and Iggy Pop, and put on Siouxie Sioux’s make up! How fun is that? I wish these coloring books existed when I was a kid! well i still am… nothing is stopping me. And it’ll be a good music history lesson for the kids heh?

As I was sitting here watching this:

I saw this commercial (click photo for video):

2 of my fav shows and one is on the Philippines and the other in Los Angeles… man IT IS my birthday!


Secret Wars

Imagine a place where art heads sit around and watch 2 artists go at it in a full on mental and physical battle of design. A instant messenger version of graffiti battles on the streets. This time, you only have 90 minutes. Click on the image to learn more. Can’t wait till it hits LA or we go to London. Whichever comes first :)


New Balance Shoe Contest

New Balance is doing a great competition for those who are into shoe design. You can design either the 576 or the 1700! Download the templates and let your ideas go wild. Everything ends June 10th. Oh yeah, brush up on your French! I expect The Noise Academy team to send in a few entries. Everyhing after the jump.
