Droolo Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I've been compiling a list of writers who were not included in the first freight book (FREIGHT TRAIN GRAFFITI) and who I believe should be included in the next one to be compiled. I think the authors did a very nice job with the first book, everyone they focused on in there certainly deserved it, I've been enjoying it since it's arrival and consider it worth the money for sure. There were/are many other writers out there who were putting in a lot of work back in the 90's and definitely deserve to be mentioned and spotlighted. Some were only doing tags, some pieces, some everything, but they were all out there at a time when one could not just blend in with the numerous other pieces on the line. When they hit a layup their work stood out like a sore thumb to the workers, bulls, etc, and they felt the heat. Their consistent dedication has made our culture the vibrant and exciting movement that it is today. The world's most massive rolling art show, by the people, for the people, uncontrolled, incredible. I know there are more I'm leaving out, these are in no particular order, and will add more as time goes by. Please contribute to this list and maybe it can be somewhat of a reference guide for whoever is going to step up next to make an attempt at documenting the history of our culture. SHORE,DEMO, DRAB, NAR, WAS, REX (CTW, DLB CREWS), METH, LEB, SAHL-COI, 125, STREN, SIRE, ECTO (AMF, GYC CREWS), SOE-BCJ, FLORIDA CLEAR, KEMO (MSG CREW), (I'm mentioning crews because i know there were others in those crews who were getting busy but I cannot think of their names at the moment, hopefully others can help out), DRIE, JET(Canada), REN, OTHER, CHROME, (KWOTA CREW) ALIUS, TUME-ARS, PETRO, CREDIT, TRACE, IRM, SCAN53, NBK CREW, TRIEL, DEST.

Anthony from Brooklyn Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Do we really need a book? What's the point of wasting your money on a dumb physical object that takes up space next to all your other useless crap? If you want to look at flicks, look at the forum. If you want to know who held down the Midwest in 94 nigga, ask your friends. Unless it has stories about how Snafu bought a 12 year old sex slave from Bulgaria or something, with pictures of course.

john_gacy Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 This seems like a dumb thread- let's make a (subjective) list of names of who got left out so that someone who may be doing part 2 might happen to look here and pick up the list. And look at some of the names getting listed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kult Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 lol at people buying anything related to graffiti... and i think only about 4 of the people you mentioned crushed in 90's more like one or two, unless you count 99 as "the 90's" everyone just wants them and their homies in a book so that they can somehow feel important and justified Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrat. Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I think if you paint trains and they get caught why should they not go in a book? Really isnt it just all about the documentation at that point? And if you were to make a book on it, shouldnt you have an unbiased view on it? And if you are looking at it with a biased view, it should be titled something like "(apply your name) favorite trains book"....my two cents.

zemdoe sc Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 the first list should be intitled,my local boys you never heard of. and we painted a couple frieght before we were washed up,never was's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droolo Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 Thanks Destroyer, I completely forgot JOCE, ERO, KER, UGLY, SUPER(BA), DAVER(PA), these guys were all killing it back then, and many of them still are. Some folks ask why bother with a book, or another book. Though I will not be one of those creating a book, I hope to inspire those with the necessary resources, for as we look back at the NYC subway era, what do we have, Subway Art (which is excellent) and maybe a few other books with select pictures from a few different lines. There were so many great writers on every line back then, there should have been documentation compiled of every line, every few years, as wave after wave of writers appeared and retired. Now it is all gone and we can only wish that would have taken place. This documentation needs to occur with the freight movement, as there are so many great writers in so many different regions of the continent, many of who's work does not appear in other regions. The list I posted may include writers some of you never even heard of, but those names were rolling through my bench on a regular basis during the previous decade. I knew this may not have been the proper forum for this thread, but also realized that this forum gets far more attention than Trainspotting. I definitely think it is relevant though.
