Meeting Delia

This Halloween was spent in Brooklyn with Melissa and her best friend,Delia. Delia had a raging birthday/Halloween party complete with candy, Dead Mau5, fake-ass Englishmen, and bomb-ass pancakes. She even allowed us to sleep on her bed as the sun came up. Thanks so much to Delia and all of her roommates, I had a great time.

Why NOT get up early?

Early morning last week I met some of the crew as well as Jamie Heim for what is quickly becoming known as "The Breakfast Club" session at the Bethlehem Skate Plaza. Don't let the term club put you off, everyone is welcome, just trying to beat the heat and the crowds.

This is the first coverage my skating has gotten in awhile. I would like to thank Homebase610.com for posting it and Jamie for hooking it up. Here are the stills and sequences, Check them and the rest of Jamie's work at JHeimphotography

Homebase and LVAN are proud to present Andy Vasquez in "The Furnitural Figures" Opening Friday July2nd

Homebase and the Lehigh Valley Artist network are proud to present Andy Vasquez in his first LVAN solo show at Homebase Skateshop entitled "The Furnitural Figures" Opening First Friday July 2nd , from 7-10pm

Andy V is one of the second gen Hometeam crew. By that, I mean, That there was a day when Andy didn't have a mustache and a good smith grind, but always had Valley Pride and a open attitude about skating and its history. As much as I try to be social with everyone, there is always one or two people that stand out as being genuine and sincere in the way they interact, I always saw that in Andy V. Over the years Andy has become a player in the game, filming video parts , getting photos, as well as school and his love of woodwork off the board. This July 2nd Andy is letting us deeper into the art of his woodworking.
Don't miss this special First Friday with the LVAN , Homebase Skateshop, and Andy Vasquez himself.

Hit me on the hip, means page me.

Black Metal Paul Art Show

This invite only art show, music display, was by far the darkest thing going on a Sunday night in Allentown. Held in a secret warehouse, Paul put his brain on display for select friends and family. Aside from the arrest for inciting (don't say "Fuck Off, Pigs" to Atown Police) it was a great event. I hope Paul keeps putting himself and his art out there, I'm backin it till then.
