Bram 2005

Another one of those clips from the past that is anything but embarrassing. Bram is dope.

ps. I'm pretty sure this was filmed januaryish 2005, maybe even february. Whenever it was, it's old.

can't get enough

It's been a little Josh overkill on this site. This video was taken during my wifes' birthday. Got her a Wii and Josh got her a dance... as you can tell, he didn't know i was filming... Gives meaning to the phrase "dance like no one is watching"

Mary Kate

This picture as a whole isn't that awesome, but I do love the ring over top of the glove. I am one who loves wearing rings etc, thus, i can appreciate the wearing of a good ring.

ps. it's snowing outside, how gross.

The September Issue... out today.

My wife and I watched this movie the other day, it is so good. It's a hybrid of a bunch of stuff I really like. It's part Devil Wears Prada, part reality Tv, huge part fashion, all rolled up nicely into a documentary. The DVD has 90 minutes of deleted scenes...that's like another full movie... (how billy mays was that last part?..yikes)

ps. don't forget my new blog

non plus one final.

nice video by Gia Coppola and Tracy Antonopoulos

Strokes

The strokes have had news of a new album for about a year now. There has been no updates since... (some rumours of arguments and whatever don't count) The strokes.com just posted this nice little video to prove "something" is going on.

BONUS
good interview from one of the best looking guys in music, (gets kinda weird at 4 minutes... government stuff is always weird.)

Trax people (hands)

While on the trax a couple weeks ago, i could not help looking at this mans hands. Rough to say the least. They made even my hands look nice. My hands are really dry and gross FYI.

Madonna D&G

I decided to post the Madonna Dolce & Gabbana campaign photos. Youre welcome for saving you time having to look for them yourself....i knew you were going to.



It just got easier to love Madonna again.

madonna

Its been getting harder and harder for me to still love Madonna lately. I have seen her new D&G advertisement and that was wonderful, then this morning i read this(copied below) from nymag.com....gross


Sources tell WWD that Madonna is close to signing a deal to launch a clothing line for Macy's. The line will be done with licensees of Iconix, which owns Candie’s, Bongo, Rampage, London Fog, Rocawear, Danskin and Badgley Mischka. The great minds at Iconix are also responsible for Candie's brilliant marketing campaign, starring Britney Spears.

Whereas the Olsens launch collections with names seemingly unrelated to them ("Elizabeth and James," "Olsenboye"), Madonna's collections would be unmistakably hers. The apparel line will reportedly be called Material Girl, while she may get a bit saucier with Truth or Dare for the lingerie line, eschewing the perhaps more fitting Bedtime Story. No word on whether shoes and accessories would get clever names of their own.

terror

This the best photo i have seen in a while (click it for a larger view). The looks on all their faces are so interesting. From left to right, they all seem different, my favourite is the girl in the front with the bonnet. The possibilities for a funny caption are endless. Leave your best caption in the comments.

now for something cool

That last post made me a little bummed. Actually a lot bummed, I decided to get back into things that are rad.
Evan Hecox is pretty good at what he does. I always wanted to know his process, I'm sure if you heard of him you also wanted to know.

Too soon?

I love Donny Miller...I have not met him so i don't think i can say I love him...anyway. His art is inspiring and, not to mention, very funny... i don't get what the tern "not to mention" means. Why say it? If you don't want to mention it, then don't.... man am I sidetracked today. Anyway, his art is great... go buy his book

I think it's been long enough that we can all laugh at this.



and this

I hope no one got offended...wait, yes i do.

photos by terry

While we were in Canada, my friend Terry took some photos with his little camera. I like these a lot, and not because they are of me, but because they fit the scene perfect. You can get a feel of just how cold it was.

This one is his view on the picture at the top of this blog.... art?



Thanks terry, more please.

most stylish lead singer... for now.

I know i have posted this band before, but i still think they are dope. U.S. Royalty are soo good. They only have an EP and I'm still not sick of them. Only a couple bands have pulled that off in my books...(surf city being the other).

nearly naked josh at the lazy and the lark show.

Friday night we drove down to Provo...yuck...to see our friends Josh and Zack (lazy and the lark) play a show. Started classy and then got awesome.

i miss you so

As part of my new decade resolutions, I have not had a soda for a whole month. That may not sound like a big deal (and frankly my soda intake was never out of control anyway) but I love my diet coke. I can say, however, that I sleep better and am less tired throughout the day... The coke and my awareness may not be related but it's been worth the effort.

Sam Klassen

I have started to go through all my old tapes. There are a lot of embarrassing things and some not so embarrassing things. This clip is one of the not so embarrassing ones.

Sam from Nylon Baby on Vimeo.


In the summer of 2005, Sam and I would skateboard nearly everyday together. At least once a week we would find ourselves warming up at the Art Gallery. Tyler still hates on my favourite spot not being a "real spot". At any rate, this clip never made it in any of the buddy cam videos. I'm not sure how that happened, i thought we included every clip we got....
More old clips coming... stoked?
