Random writings I found in my note pad after Tour De Fridge from someone:

2010-12-27T21:23:00.000-08:00

its funny how all these guys are normal and you can relate to them untill you drink this much, and like carriages into pumpkins they all turn into meatheads. Apart from Jez, he's still cool. Unbeknownst to all Jez is probably the biggest meathead of all, amoungst all of ust he most misunderstood genious of sensuality removed from reality is actually fantastically radically so removed from how you groove that to prove would make your wrinkles smooth

Hello children!
I have been in exile in Europe for a while now, due to the no camera, no scanner/computer sitch I have nothing to show you. However, you can peep:

http://jamesahern.blogspot.com/
for some photos and text of Hern, Robbie and I having fun in Paris and Amsterdam. I was going to poach some flicks, but there seems little point rehashing James' marvelous commentary with my jibber-jabber.

Also I have some drawings I made for the Walrus Hostel on their blog:
http://walrussocial.blogspot.com/
Its a good hostel if you're ever in London....

I do have drawings of my adventures, when I am home I will do a big scan up and post 'em
for you because I'm sure you care

This actually happened: I came home from work and one of my fish was missing. The flow of water from the current jet was strangely weak, turns out one of my Bristle-nosed Catfish jumped over the filter wall and got his head stuck in the pump. Intense irony of my sucker fish being sucked to death aside, this was a rather sad event.....

Old, raw and kinda mean, this also actually happened before my calloused eyes at Woolys to the great amusement of all present.

This didn't happen obviously, but it is somewhat amusing

My camera's working again. Went on a drive to York for no particular reason with Frodo and Cactus. Stopped for a beer in Mundaring, next door was a shop selling SEXY STUFF, while I was taking this photo a leather faced mum entered the store with her pre-teen daughter in tow- yeesh.
Drive drive drive, draw draw draw. The land is wide and dry with vast blue skies and scorched fields, para-sailors wafted from hillsides and drifted through the air in soft circles.

York is an old town with pretty old buildings and shit. Frodo saw a person riding a horse and got real excited, he'd never seen anyone actually ride a horse before. We also spotted what looked like a hot midget walking down the street.
We can't stop here, this is bat country.
Barking up the right tree.
Farmers were burning back the fields and the valley was filled with smoke, when we drove home a haze filled the sunset sky and made strange colours.

Under The Dead Weather

2010-04-02T23:09:00.000-07:00

Sometimes the fates can be generous, the day after The Pixies one of P's friends had a ticket to The Dead Weather for me, which is an amazing twist of luck, so I got my shit together and stumbled through another day at work before getting back on the party train.

The bass player was by far the easiest to draw, felt rather tired from the night before's hi-jinks, but still got my groove on. I enjoyed the live act much more than the cd's and whatnot I've heard- the sound was pretty crazy- killer bass and keyboard- the crowd was by far one of the tamest I've drawn in, which makes it easier to sketch I suppose... I didn't see one person I know in the whole damn joint, which is odd- where do these indie kids come from?

Hmmm, I think this might have been a song about a pony, I also think Alison is pretty damn sexy. Most of the other women I've spoken to disagree, but what do they know?

I'm quite the Jack White fan, he mostly played drums, with vocals and some guitar breaks thrown in. The above picture is a quote, or maybe a paraphrase, I think he said purple... Anyways, it was fun times- they played Leadbelly's Goodnight Irene when it was over and it was time to go home.
I'd like to say a huge thanks to Jen for hooking me up and driving and also that I was completely thrashed the next day from too much rocking and was under the dead weather.

PIXIES

2010-03-29T02:22:00.000-07:00

Got home from a fun city skate and was just crackin' a longie when Licky called me up with a proposal: did I want to go see the Pixies right now? Yes I did.We skated to his Uncle's house, along the way a huge black dog tried to eat us and scared the shit outta me. Actually several dogs barked at Lic the whole way there, something about his board drives them wild. Licky's Dad and Uncle drove us out to Bellvoure, we got a little lost, but made it in time to get a drink and find a good post in the amphitheater. Didn't really listen to the opening act, when the Pixies came on they opened with some b sides before getting into the Doolittle album.

I smuggled in some moonshine vodka Cactus gave me,which I mixed with $5 redbulls. Bellvoure is such a good venue for a gig, I had a great time bugging out and groovin on some kill tunes, it's much easier to draw sitting down too.

When it was over it took a while to find the car again, got a little lost again on the way home and wound up getting eats at a all night biker burger joint with a outdoor fire pit. Chilled out for a whiles after and was then very tired for work today....

Cheers Licky- you the man!

Ahhh, another year another Good Vibes, after boycotting the Harris Island we were ready to give Claremont venue a bash. As usual I had my note pad with me as my memory is proving ever more unreliable. Our day kicked off with a blast from the past: Salt and Pepper
Shit was tight, people boogied the fuck down, lots of fun.
Then to the bar
and then....

Girl fights are funny, this was no exception. heh heh heh heh heh
Naughty By Nature: so legit
I enjoyed Busta Rhymes set, there were hats flying everywhere, I threw the same one away twice.
I'm not going to lie, Z-trip is pretty much my favorite DJ, I never miss his shows when he comes to town, untill they're gone, then I miss them terribly.
It was a really dope set, I FUCKING HATE the Black Eye Peas now and deeply, deeply regret that I was ever into them back in the dizzy and yet Z-trip cut that shit up and I was feeling that shit.

Here's a sticker, the first I've made I don't completely hate. Only partially .
And here's one that really happened: twas skating freo park in the night wid tha crew and I had a little cheer squad of children from some car club who were feeling the mohawk.

WORK

2010-01-16T11:58:00.000-08:00

Since I've finished Tafe I've been thrust back into the dirty, sad, crude world of the industrial worker, which is resulting in no end of material for drawings. In fact, I think I shall chronicle my work related misadventures as they unfold. Currently I am working quarantining shit for the GORGON gas mine, which is about as far from what I want to be doing as any other paying job but "Hangin' wid tha niggas don't pay the bills.... And being broke at thirty give a nigga tha chillz"*.
To the Eh-Bro featured in this strip, who really seemed like he wanted to fight me at the time: congratulations- you are the first and only person from New Zealand I've met who I don't like thus far.

New Year's Eve '09

2010-01-01T21:15:00.000-08:00

Another year over already? Seems like only a short time ago we were jammin' to Public Enemy...
This year I managed to fill a whole note-pad with drug addled, boozey scribblings and notes in one night. I have selected some of the better ones and some flicks for your enjoyment.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The first act I caught was Roots Manuva , who I don't really live for that much, but that Witness the Fitness track is a fucking corker.
Next up was Ugly Duckling, who's lay'd back beats really got my party started. It was around now people started asking me what I was doing with my note-pad. I tell them I make-a-the drawings. There was solid amounts of crew around to help keep the good times rolling.
Frodo was in fine form harassing strangers with his unfathomable logic on the way to the bar...Dilated Peoples took us through from 11pm to the big count down. I never used to feel these guys that much back in the day, but compared to the crap being sold as hip-hop today, D-P's are fucking legit. Woo! Two thousand and ten began somewhere around now. BrosI had several people draw me some stuff over the course of the evening, here's one of the better one's from a skate kid Mitch who gave me a beer one hot day at Woolys- What a champ.
Ran into Yazeed getting into some shenanigans and immediately lost him again.
Wu-Tang Clan strikes again!
I think this drawing came out the best in the end- Time for some action!

Meth and Red were ill-dropped some ODB shit. To finish Meth did a bit of an Iggy crowd walk thing and then it was over.On the walk back to the train station some girls managed to get their car into gear with no-one inside and their car proceeded to fuck the other car and push it out onto the road infront of about a thousand cops and other onlookers. GHOSTRIDER! It was pretty much the best car crash ever and no-one was in either vehicle.

Then we went home to chill out and begin a brave new decade in this scary old world.

And here's a representation of the tumultuous journey tward manhood and stuff.
