It better be at my house today. I can't sleep on planes and I'm relying on this book.

 

 

PS...those prepaid debit cards are like $20 to get activated and they charge you like 3% everytime you add money.

 

Just go get a bank account nerd.

Excellent story Bojangles...it was very descriptive. I almost feel like I was there for some of that. Those graff stories brought back some memories of my own. Have to get a copy so I can finish the rest...

I just finished the book. It was really a good and interesting read. I have wanted to do the same thing and have always put it off, so it is very inspirational to me.

 

Bojangles would you be willing to post up some flicks, like I got all these pictures imagined of in my head, the Fun wall the raves the homies and I thought it would be cool to see the real things. If not thats cool....great book man. Two thumbs up, are you going to edit and rerelease?

Didn't even see this thread bumped until tonight. Sure man...why not? Though they might not be as beautiful of people and places as you're imagining. Give me a few days and I'll try and get on it.

That would be really cool, I think that your writing was very descriptive and I just thought it would be cool to get some visuals. The book was awesome, I'm going to bust out a review on that site you posted.

Okay, the first batch is the night I left for Job Corps. I'm the ugly, skinny blond kid with the bootleg Onyx shirt and stolen Jordans.

Next to me on the truck is Lil' Roy.

 

The bottom pic is Lil' Roy, Me and Presto.

 

...We're tough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Up next is Lil' Zack, followed by how my roommates at that house looked 90% of the time and a night on the town with yo' boy...

I don't have a lot of pics because I roamed a lot but there's something to get it started. I'll try and post some pics of the mentioned neighborhoods soon.

The "Fun Wall" from the backview.

This is a shot from the back wall and a distorted view of the side wall which actually runs about half the length of a football field. There's also a front wall which was saved for productions and out of towners.

Like I said before, I'll try and drudge up (or get ambitious and go get some) photos of the areas which are still as grimy for the most part as they were in the stories.

 

Meanwhile...here's why I got my ass kicked a lot:

you mentioned a book a while back that got me intrigued and I had been searching to figure out what its name might be. Glad I know now. Gonna check it out. Didnt know the dates were 2007 who resurrected this thread, happy it was done.
