anyone notice the loafis in all those pics from that custom whips mag? Yeah, and like BMT said, some Deth. Didn't that building get tore down this past summer, though?

Yeah, that T is from the famous STEEL. Kinda funny how both the S and E flicks there were both taken within just a few miles of I-75. One in Detroit and who knows where the other one is.

More Downriver Benching...

unless she was making an esoteric reference to a plant or river, (while simultaneously misspelling 'maybe') the word is 'influence', and i know what it means, but thank you. Anytime, good sir, anytime..

Influents, as in, more than one influent. Klaudius has one influent while Rock&Rye has many influents.

I think there's an Abort/Peru on some handball courts pretty close to where you flicked those Faygo bombs on the trailer. I thought there were some Gem pieces at the Market? Musta got rolled. I know there's a Jem still running at either the Belleville or Haggerty Road exit on I-94. Shit's been there for a year or two. Dake, man, whatever happened to dude? I might be mistaken or misinformed but, no mention of Pixel?

And it's much too hard to ask 15 years worth of questions in one post or one e-mail. The history dork in me would love a nice little book of the complete history of detroit graffiti from different perspectives. The devil's advocate in me says that the writers would view that as totally selling out and making things/knowledge easier for toys and n00bs. Also, I'm sure there's the trust/integrity issue thrown in there because of the "Paint Cans and Politics" bullshit.

Khartoum, you're not the only one that wants to learn about the history of graffiti in this city. Somewhat directed at seeking, I'd imagine that putting up what your viewpoint was on certain events on a medium such as this -- or even posting an article on, say, motosoul -- can generate drama because other people can see what you have to say and have problems with your opinion. But what if the history lessons were done a la IM or e-mail correspondence? That way you have stories told by different people without the influence of other people/writers. And at the end one can just compile it, differing opinions and all, and post it up. It would certaintly take more time but I would think that you'd end up with a more polished result.

Goddamn, seeking, that's funny shit. Simon Cowell in this bitch, y'all. What's even funnier is that just because the first one is "thick", I'd like to get to know her. You'd think I could get with a heavier woman being in one of the fattest places in America but noooo..

Indian: yeah man, I already got a couple flicks of that. Look a few pages back. You're talkin about that pink/turquois roller they did, right? Yeah, it's somewhere, just look brah. If it's not there, either I posted that shit on Motosoul or the admins deleted my pictures. Oops. Gary. Or Beans. Whichever city you prefer. Cheddar Bob?? Seriously, fr8s, "SmackyTheFrog" was sooooo much doper. Freal. Sincerely, IHaveNoFriendsterQutionerOner

This is what happens when emo kids get ahold of cans of paint and Steel Reserve:

(in reference to Fen's post..) I could be mistaken, but I was under the impression that the Tead/Death stuff started before the MySpace scuffle. Anyways, congrats Lacquer, your work made it into a local rag:

You mud not know who tead eeez! Market Update (Pt. 2): Done.

Here's a Market Update (Pt. 1):

As an aside, anyone seen that Al Wissam commercial where everyone in it is walkin around with those stitched jackets? Every chick in that spot has BOOTY. Not just front to back but side to side as well. I wish more white women had ass like that. :o

You tryin to tell me to get on that? I reckon you is. And I lied, the Sekt shot I thought I had is blurry. Soz folks.Â

Ask and you shall receive. The Denz was hard to get a decent shot of without the reflective glare of the lights on the piece. It was hard to get a good shot of the Stori as it was in a 3-foot-wide hallway, but didn't really try terribly hard though. -- Yeah, the color is a bit off as I had the exposure set a little low due to me having the shakes and all. The longer the shutter is open, the more light gets in but the blurrier the shot is. Damn I need a tripod. I also got a couple of the Sekt but I'm not sure if he wants them posted or not.

I'll be sure to take flicks at the gallery. That is, if I can get out of my house tommorrow. Time to see first-hand how well the CoD deals with snow-removal.

Quit yer bitchin. There's plenty of other good writers if you don't like Riku. And I will gladly shove thumb tacks into the head of your penis if you pay my way in. Yeah, admission might be a bit steep for a cheapskate like me but fuck it, sounds like something fun to do on a Friday night.
