Art and Flea 3

Art and Flea 3 is going down this upcoming thursday, September 23rd. Each installment is looking to be better than the last. This time they gave me the boot to outside buuuut its all good because I'll have a bigger space to hustle some goodies. I'll have some small original paintings on hand for only $20, star magnets for $5, tees and spraycans for $10 aaand two jewelry boxes to put all the other small goodies you buy inside. So come down and see what all the fuss is about its only a dollar ($1) and a smile to check out!

808 Orbits / Beat Root Bodega 2

Beat Root Bodega went down and was not too in affect. It's a telling as to how technology is taking over the music scene big time. Ipods instead of CD, Imacs instead of turntables. Respects to Kavet for tring to keep the scene alive. We need more "Dj's" to support the cause and keep it real on the ones and twos. Buy a cart with wheels or grab a homey to carry your record crates and turntable into the party. Its like artists only bringing prints and small items to shows because its easier to carry.

808 Orbits lacked the crowd that I expected it to have. With Comic Con just happening in San Diego I would've thought a little buzz around the urban art scene would be happening. I finally got to meet the brains of the operation HaynMade. In attendance for the artists was Remi, Pancho, Ohana, Rival'e, Rzone, Kres, Ownah, Daves Action, Krazy, and Klash.

My camera died halfway through my time there so I didn't get to take as many flicks as I wanted to.

Taryn Wright Memorial Ride

Today was the memorial ride for Taryn Wright, it was a very inspirational ride showing support for all the homies on two wheels. The mission of the ride was to raise eyebrows for bike safety, driver awareness and create a memorial for Taryn. Big ups to Rob, Sau, and Nimz who did the networking, and brother Eric who painted the ghost bike. The ride was super slow and not quite made for my setup, but everyone was patient and there was no body showing off or ruining the time for anyone else.

Taryn's parents, family and friends were there at the accident site when we arrived and we all had a moment of silence when the ghost bike was locked up to the pole

Art and Flea wrapup..

First off, thanks to Nicole and Aly for letting me hope on the Art and Flea wagon. It was definitely different being a vendor than a spectator this time. I didn't take any pictures of other peoples booths cause I didn't want to be rude, but there was a large range of stuff for sale from original artwork to boardgames to woman's clothing. Lady butt cheeks were in affect but I couldn't get any pictures of those either. Here's some pics that I could take..

808 Orbits / Beat Root Bodega

Lightsleepers and 808 Orbits will be tag teaming at Fresh Cafe this saturday, September 11th. Records, clothing and urban toys will be some of the few things that will be on sale or for trade that day. The best part about it is its FREEEE. I'll be hustling a few small items and signing items along side some of Hawaii's finest urban/underground artists.

Gary hit me up last minute so only had time for a hand drawn design. He wanted to show a small part of what their shop has to offer so I threw in a wheel spacer, Nexen tire, Garrett turbo charger and Tein suspension.
