Smart Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 i remember when k-mart was going bankrupt.... cans of krylon reduced to like 75 cents!...........too bad when i got there every other writer in my city had gotten there before me.....fuck fluorescent krylon! Man, that was the craziest bankruptcy EVER! They 'went broke' and then hired an outside accounting company to help them restructure. It was then that the 'outsiders' pointed out that they had billions in prime real estate that they owned outright so they were, in fact, WAY solid. So, like a week later all the sales were off and none of the stores closed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tango 24 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 mags are in no way obsolete its much better to be able to hold a mag in your hands and flick through rather than sit at the computer staring at a screen plus theres a hell of a lot of interesting stuff in them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnUpsetStomach Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Mags usually have access to pics that the general public cant get, the fact that in a lot of cases the photos are submitted by the artists themselves means when mags are doing feature articles they have a lot more in-depth material.. Plus the interviews, and photo descriptions and cool niche advertisements makes for a great read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fermentor666 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 LOL at graffiti beef in Channel Zero. Magazines are great, so much easier on the eyes than the computer screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALIgula Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 R.I.P. for reals. I bought LOTS of music from tower records in the early to mid 90's (late 90's I discovered a thing called mp3's)...and I bought lots of graffiti magazines too....also books for english classes in high school. interesting fact: The first tower records store opened in my home town (sacramento, ca)....and it was named after the historic tower theater...cause the first tower records (books/movies)...is across the street from the tower theater..... so i just watched a documentary about my city "back in the days"...they interviewed the ceo of tower records..the way it started was that next to the tower theater there was a drug store called tower drug store..they sold coca-cola and had a jukebox....so the teenagers would come in and buy soda and listen to the records...then when the records got old, the jukebox company would sell them to tower drug store for 3cents...and they would sell it to the kids for 10cents....they made some money doing this and bought half a dozen records to see if they could sell those...when they did...they just went into the record business...

the man the myth the GOON Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 i usually buy a graf mag a year... usually like 20% of whats in it. which, i think, is pretty good as i really don't like most graffiti. i've shopped at a few over the years. i've seen lots of local stores go, and those i was sad about, this, i'm not so much...
