TEE V GOLF X SEGA
First thing i bought during this whole trip and is being shipped tomorrow to my boy Raul in Barcelona who own one of the illest video games collections i have ever seen. The box looks like shit but the item itself it's never been used and it was only 3$... Happy early Xmas buddy.



I'm also hooked on this shit. I actually love everything that is in a hard can.
If you need i'll be in the home land of the cheese steak till tuesday.

LIFE GOES ON, THE FLICKS GOES ON.
Internet and i is not really happening so sorry for the lack of posts. life is good, loads of chill times, walks, days inn, movies, paint ball, eats, etc. Check the new flicks on GGL.
Leaving to Philly in 2 days. Be back soon.

NO TOLERANCE - BOSTON STRAIGHT EDGE
I've been out of the game for too long without even noticing and lately with the question if i still really wanna be part of it. Not calling myself straight edge sounds weird but comfortable sometimes, i mean i hate the concept "i'm drug free", still sounds gay to me, but the straight edge hardcore scene has turned into this circus of internet people and modern music i just can't relate to.

Las week my friend Ola showed me a video on her camera of this band called No Tolerance, she was like "i know you gave up on HC but this guys are bringing it back and DFJ is wearing construction gloves with X's on". Just from the footage i kinda was into it but the other day i got to hear the songs and yeah, seems like they are bringing it back.

To be honest if i look back into all the records that came out through this last decade i can barelly save a bunch of demos and a few good albums. Not saying they are bad, just saying not me.

Check their beats here.

THE WHITE GLOVE GROUP
My boy Max And Daniel Santoro have started TheWhiteGloveGroup. I seriously love starting things with zero direction: "today we do a party, tomorrow a shirt, the day after put out some records, maybe someday a book, and then we will take it from there". 2 dudes with large brains and the attitude to bring something new to this game. 
Every first friday of the month they do a party in DC. Keep peeping their blog and go visit Santoro at Smith StreetTattoo Parlour

Click here to buy this shirt.
Or here to pick the Bracewar demo.

IN DOG WE TRUST
Sometime ago my friend Alejandra told me about this exciting project she got in her hands, a fanzine about dog pictures and stories she was doing with some friends. I'm glad broke days come with great projects and ideas.
Peep it here.
A FOREIGN FAMILY TALE.
Sometimes it's very positive to take a step back and realise if what you are doing makes any sense with yourself. This is one of those love/hate stories with your life/work by Foreign Family. Check it out here.
MEMBER OF THE HALLOWEEN BRIGADE.
Well the flicks are up on GGL, so peep them out. I was suposed to be the ultimate warrior but i forgot my muscles at Sarah's house so i had to hurry up, make it to broadway and find something... I was thinking of stage diving all day and then i saw this mask for 35$ so i had to do it, even thought about buying retarded spantex at American Apparel to make a full outfit but then i did remember it would be a Vice Halloween so there will be enough gay outfits in the house. The truth is that stage diving to the Bad brains was quite dificult, the crowd was a mix of hypsters, new heroin addicts, sexy-somethings, and used to be HC kids... so very few people up front and it very bad conditions to resist any step or landing. 
To be honest never liked the Jesus Lizard and i dont understand their come back at all, but no doubt they were the heroes of the night. HR is still out of his mind but still one of my favourite characters in the world. One's the Bad Brains were over the place turned into a rave in a matter of seconds so told my friend Seth "Dude eather we start doing mad drugs or we get the hell outta here", he ask me if a combo of both was possible but we end up getting pizza at Vinnie's at 3/4 a.m not shure. No energy to go back to the city so meet up with more locals and call it a great halloween night.

I GOT TO SAY... IT WAS A GOOD DAY.
Last night we end up crashing some misterious birthday party with not much testosterone going on but some good laughs came out that. So this morning i went to grab a few bagels and drag my self to Rich's spot to watch the game, Liverpool fucking won Manchester United so the day started just great except from the part that Todd tried to kiss on the celebration of the second goal. It was damn nice outside so me and my boy Joel went to B&H for some film and walk the city, grab burritos at Chipotle and kick it at Central Park. Then i discovered this Halloween Oreos and i call it a day. Droping film tomorrow so pictures soon at GGL.


Since i dont really take my digital out anymore and i have posted over a zillion times all the food i eat in NYC, this is the new spot you should check out. Mad good vegan pizza. Check it out.

LIFE IN SHELVES AND BOXES.

My life is alreday storage in boxes. I land next tuesday October 20th in NYC and i'm bringing part of my halloween costume. When you carry so much crap with you is difficult to take every single step so hopefully this adventure will make me relate less to pile of crap i own and set me free. Going through the bagpacks i found this Independent bag that my dad got me when i was 12, straight away i put up some skate patches and through the years ended up covered in hardcore crap. I would never survived as a punk... my sewing skills were bellow zero

"COVER YOU IN OIL"
Every once in a while you allow people to cross your "limits", and i am a well known man of "limits". I never do what i dont feel like doing but lately i've been bending those fences and doing what my close ones feel like doing. When i got ask "i wanna do a painting of you" i had to hold my breath for several seconds then try to come up with something stupid to see if i can run away from the matter but since it seemed like it was going to be a like it or not situation, i agreed with it. So this is me on a canvas by Sarah O'Donoghue, you can check her blog with her later stuff here. Be quick before she close this blogs and start another one that will be close too.
THE DOG IS HOT.
It does sucks to find this right when i know i'm about to leave the country. Hopefully this guys will be open for a long time. Sick hot dogs with vegan options and mad topings. Hit them up if you are in Barcelona, right next to Macba. Check their site here.

OCTOBER NEWS

Brad Stevens and Seth Wood came to visit beacuse of the Barcelona Tattoo Convention, it's always nice to have some stinky americans in the house. Talking about a house, i'm about to be home less pretty soon, i'm taking it really slow but by the end of this week my life will be folded in boxes and the very basics of my life in a (not yet chosen) bag. Been hanging out alot with job less friends, watching tv alot, thinking alot. Still no internet in my life, i'll try to come down to 113 more often to blog and put some more pictures up at GGL, btw new post about my days in Barcelona here.
MID 90'S TICKETS

DIY shows werent very big on giving a ticket at the show but some of the bigger HC/Punk rock shows here in Spain had easily some of the worst designs ever when it came down to show tickets, not that the posters were amazing but seriously... It doesnt matter if it was 96 you could could have still put some effort on those tickets. Please double click on the second image for a more detailed view of the shows you missed from '95 to '99. I'm quite nostalgic and jobless.
ORLANDO 2001

Somehow when you name some year with 2000 it doesnt feel that long ago but alot has rained since the summer of 2001. I had a septum, sideburns and a Krishna necklace. Not i only found my UFC card but i also found the Warped Tour 01 ticket, i remember i was quite pissed beacuse i missed by one day the last Earth Crisis show in NYC so Rancid, H2O, etc... in Florida was def not enough for making it up.

-113-
Our friend Javi got married last month with Brisa. You can check the flicks here but to see me in a smoking hot suit you eather should have come, invite me to another weeding or marry me. It's up to you. 
Congratulations my friend! 113 will always be a big part of my life.
COOKIN SOUL X FLAVIO RODRIGUEZ

I'm well known for not being a big fan of electronic music not even into RnB but working with Alex at Trustnobody for several years i did got hooked up with beats of the kids in Cookin Souls. This kids from Valencia are mad genious, no jokes, check their work here. Flavio is a good homie, check his blog for eternal posts about babes and cheeszy songs.
STORM KING
Change is real. I'm doing stuff i wont have even thought about a few months back. Well some how Sarah brought me to Storm King, minimalist architects from all over the world put their pieces all over this gigantic natural park. The weather was a 11 but seriously everyone that told us this place was the shit was def high on something. I would recomend to see it without many expectations during fall with all the leaves on the ground and stuff. We were even told at the park that there was a total different view when it rains... i mean i still think we were missing the drugs not the rain. Check the flicks here.

This beats were in my mind all the time out there even if i was singing "i want to break free" from Queen.



"Call me dirty, trash my name. Just tell the boys that I'm gonna be back in business again!"
Serisously best band ever.

STILL LOVING NYC CITY
NYC flicks up. Now chilling hard in the streets of Barcelona until the sun comes up and riding my bike here and there all the time. It's time of changes and decisions but the weather is just great so that's sort of helping. Really thanx alot to everyone (old co-workers, friends and fam) that is being very supportive in this change in my life. Check the flicks here.

Peace. World Peace.

HELL AINT A BAD PLACE TO BE
ACDC 1996 Barcelona
I remember that day like it was yesterday.
RULE Nº1
Sometimes i wanna delete my myspace profile but i still have a few friends that wont ever check their mail or get a facebook so i keep it for random messages every once in a while, plus it's kinda fun to get creepy stuff like this...
If you are really out there very solo do not go on the internet and send this messages. Seriously somone that begs for an add is quite lame plus if you put up a picture with a "puppy face" for it then it just flips to plain gay shit. 
Even though my friend Martí sent me this link that made me laugh for several minutes this morning. I highly recomend to double click on this pic.

BOXES LITTLE BOXES
i tend to put everything i have in my pockets, around the taple, down the bed, on the wall, etc... in little boxes and then kinda forget about them. Then one day you are looking for something and you find stuff like this...
Out Come The Wolves first 7" flyer.
Out Come The Wolves second 7" flyer.
A card of my first streeper in Vegas.
My personal Hooters Casino Hotel Card.
And from all the post cards i think this one is trully the best one. i belive this is 03/04 or 04/05 Xmas.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK

When this came out and i saw the video, i went to download the album right away, then 10 minutes later i deleated every single song but that one because everything was so wack. Someone sent me this video yesterday and the song came back to my mind. Mark Gonzales still The Man.

Sorry for the lack of posts but it's gonna be like that for a bit still.
