Erik and I headed down to to Santa Ana to meet up with Triumvir/Caked Out crew for a lunch, discussion, and general mocking of Brian for not paying attention to any of the previous. The guys took us to a noodle spot in a strip mall across from Kitsch bar, I would tell you the name but I don’t know it. The best part of having friends that speak fluent Chinese is the access we get to restaurants that we could not normally go to, and if we did we would be greeted with silverware and a Coke. Good call on this spot guys, we look forward to going back. As for our discussions, they went very well and sometime in November you will be able to see the result of those talks.

Yummy goodness that Erik did not share.
Last week we received a a delivery from our friend Benjie Escobar. Benjie sent us over his newest print, Baby D2, along with his newest project 400ml Spray Can(dle)s. Benjie’s new print is an homage to Star Wars, and Lady of Quadalupe fans, which makes it perfect for our walls. The detail on the candle is amazing, although what was billed as “Fresh Scent” reminded us more of a not so fresh scent. Regardless of the smell it is a great piece that has already found a spot on my bookcase. Both pieces are available on Benjie’s site, support local artist!
Yes, the NEW stickers are here, and they are available in the online store. These stickers look great on your car, desk, lunch box, motorcycle helmet, phone, computer, fridge, closet door, or the walls and chairs of Wahoos.

So last week I took a little family trip to SF, we grabbed a JetBlue flight out of Long Beach. As we are settling in to our seats I spot this parked next to us. If you don’t know what it is I will share what I know. When you order a private jet from a manufacturer like Gulfstream it comes with many options from the company. One of those options is known as the “green primer”. What I have been told is this is a STRIPPED version of the plane with no interior furnishings, and yes no paint on the outside. A friend that worked for Gulfstream told me that these planes are delivered (flown) to the buyers, and the pilot takes the seat with him when he departs the plane. This takes “baller” to the whole next level, cause you just dropped how even many millions on a jet, now you get to have a custom interior done, paint job, electronics, the whole bit. The world of custom interiors on jets must be crazy. Ours will be matte black exterior with concrete floors inside.
Here it is in all it’s glory. Inspired by 80’s skateboarding and The Cramps, with artwork by Joe King. Again, a huge thank you to Chris Broders and the rest of the team at OBEY Clothing for making this happen. The shirt will go on sale tonight, Friday 5/29 at midnight via the 530medialab online store and the OBEY Clothing online store. A limited amount will be available on each store. Tell a friend, better yet tell a few friends!
My bike was stolen yesterday from Corto Place/ Broadway in Long Beach, between 9:30am and 6pm. If anyone sees a red Electra beach cruiser (with a white basket, a bell, and a Vons Market bottle opener) cruising around Long Beach, be sure to punch that person in the face and then call me so I can punch them too!
