One Year Anniversary of Greatest Trade Show Party Ever

This was the best party, hands down, at the ASR show in San Diego last year. Vice and Analog put it down proper in Tijuana. It sounds weird, but I actually have an archive.

Bang Bang me Trouble Andrew

At least, that's what we're led to believe. But we all know he ain't touching that chick because his girl, Santogold, is just way too fucking cool. But this makes our dancing video vixen none the less hot. Trouble also flashes us his tats and shows off some of that seven bling.

Word on the street is that Trouble is looking for a synth player. The details of Jake leaving are vague at best, but it seems to be an amicable departure. Anyhoo, If that's your deal, you'd be smart to hit him up on his myspace.

Erotic Photography, Anyone?

The good peoples over at Frank put up a cool interview with photographer Ellen Stagg from the Frank151 blog. You'll want to check out her Stagg Street blog as well.



And FYI here's an example of good peoples from Frank151: Craig Wetherby

Getting Twisted Poolside in the OC

Ohhhhh, what a party last weekend...in steamy Orange County.

After a WeSC pool party got the kibosh, our group went next door to the Hilton. But after we were blamed for a concoction of fruit, liquid and unidentified powder exploding in a microwave, whilst pumping romantic jams on a hotel breakroom radio...it was leaving time.

So we went to a mexican restaurant bar. We lasted at least 40 minutes before getting tossed.

Then it was off to a shiny-shoe OC club, with most of us still in swimwear. Here I got caught by security...on the roof, alongside the man responsible for much of the evening's depravities. I won't disclose his name, but I will say he was wearing an amazing tie-dye blue unicorn shirt with matching sea foam denim.

We still made it in. But man, I was twisted.

Daft Punk Live @ 02 Wireless Festival in London

Over the top light shows and genre-defining electronic music make Daft Punk one of the best live shows today (well...shows of the summer blockbuster type..). I didn't catch them on their recent North American tour, but everyone I've spoken with says they killed it. Especially the Montreal show.

Critical Mass San Diego

These guys are so into their bikes that they messed up on the date. It's a five friday month, meaning the correct date is August 31.

The Headsick Ladies of Comic-Con

Last weekend I covered Comic-Con for Complex Magazine. Above is a photo of Melodie Gore (left), a professional pin-up girl. Not only is she a super creative artist type, she's also down to bare it all, Penthouse style.

Melodie was at Comic-Con to promote Headsick, a controversial gore/horror porn outfit. Like, really fucking hardcore, but watch the trailor if you want: Headsick Girls. Just don't say I didn't warn you -- It's pretty much the gnarliest shit I've ever seen (I couldn't watch the whole thing), and even the most extreme porn companies are avoiding association with them.


God bless our constitutional freedoms and all the perverse, fantasy role-playing women in this world.

Levis Button Rings - Limited Japan Release.

A while back, Levis put out these diamond encrusted rings. The bling was overkill and they felt like a weird fit with the brand's image. I tried to find a photo of them, but bottom line, I wasn't backing 'em.

But these beauties, modeled after the classic Levis Vintage button, I am backing. Not that I would actually buy one (I might), but they are available in gold and sterling silver and for sale only in Japan. Levis Vintage Japan
