"when was the Demo up there?"

 

great question.

The Demo was there from around the first time that anyone had permission to legally paint at that spot (96-97)

Demo and Shore got permission to paint the American Tent wall in the first place (96-97).

 

Those little window boxes were all HFX Crew

Shore, Demo, Baks.

 

There are one or two people who look at this forum who would know better than me.. but HFX was (to my knowledge) the first crew to do pieces and productions in Indianapolis on a regular basis. Shore and Demo started HFX (i think) but Baks, Fuse, 6Cents, Mut, and some others were involved with the crew in a major way. Some of the guys in HFX went on to form NUA, some of them went on to form IWS. Some guys were in both of those crews at that same time even.

O wow, yeah im not a local, got family on the south side and I havent been back there since I took those pics. So I dont know the history. A lot of the people who painted over there I was told were chicago-nians.

 

I was also wondering if there is any pics of DRAT floating around. I remember my first trip out there I would see his throws and straights EVERYWHERE. Then my next trip back I was told he got locked up... any1 got pics, or maybe the archive of this thread has some?

I am kinda dissapointed whats on this wall now. That wildstyle burner that was behind the razprwire that I got a poor flick of is gone. It was super inspirational to me when I started truly writing. I think whats on those walls now lacks that amazing graffiti vibe that it once had. Im sure whatever was on their originally was the best, but the quality of work on there now has gone waaay down... its unfortunate to see amazing art covered by not so amazing art

90's Indy flicks are the best. I love seeing those old Shores, Demos and Creeps. Those were the styles I was seeing in the very beginning. Slope and Tokeo MUL were crazy influential too, but both were from other cities.

 

I think the art on the Tent wall ebbs and flows. Just as you don't like what is on there now, you may love it on your next trip...
