Grams
Listen, I'm kinda beefy over an art show that opens this weekend, but I still think everyone should see it - and I don't want to take any credit away from the amazing artists and Justin from Shooting Gallery and Kris Lewis (who seems to have been the curators) for putting together what seems like an incredible exhibit. Just sour over will.i.am doing an art show and not involving G1988 (my other job), considering I've been friends with the guy since youth and actually did him a crazy favor a few years back. Whatever, now I can make fun of his solo album and not feel bad.








Onto less bitter information, these artists were each commissioned to create portraits of Grammy-nominated artists for an exhibit this weekend at the Pacific Electric Lofts in LA. here are some really awe-inspiring examples...
Nas by Henry Lewis
Jay-Z by Greg Gossel
Madonna by Lori Early
M.I.A. by Colin Christian
Rich Rubin by Paul Chatem
will.i.am (boooo!) by David Stoupakis
Angus Young by Shawn Barber
Trent Reznor by Travis Louie

Listen, you COULD focus on this full shot of the Limited Blue Camo Hoodie that Pete was wearing during press week at the Super Bowl, but I think I'll stare at the fact that a microphone has a rubber ducky on it.

Kitchen Ware
''Hit it" is a series of furniture, consisting of a table and chairs. They resemble Saloon furniture from western movies, but the difference lies in the material. Hit It allows everyone to feel like a strong cowboy. Saloon fighting will now not only be fun, but safe.
Pains that I don't own this. Not sure I can outwit the physical Hit It Table and Chairs with any sort of pun or twee-based commentary, but I will say that if this was a public company I would buy so much stock in it that I would wear a monocle, smoke a pipe and brag about how the economy doesn't affect investors smart enough to put their money in collapsible fighting furniture - because that sir, is a global necessity.

So, even though the man publicly outed me as desperate for those drool-worthy Coraline Nikes, and banned the shoe game to Clandestinish, I still owe Pete a Holiday present. He got me the Todd James (a.k.a. "REAS") print he featured over on his blog a few months ago, which was awesome. And I figured I'd return the gesture...



I had two prints to choose from, you tell me if I picked correctly.
Thought about these Tim Doyle "Bill Murray Times Six" prints I first saw at OMG Posters. They have a normal colorway, and a more limited glow-in-the-dark version, and both chronicle Bill in many of his most memorable roles (Caddyshack, Stripes, Ghostbusters, Ed Wood, Lost in Translation, Life Aquatic), but luckily leaves of his stint as the voice of Garfield. Anyway, didn't pick this one, although I might need to pick it up for myself.
I went with Alex Pardee, who you might recognize from his extensive album and merch art for The Used and Cage. I framed it up with matting and everything...
Choice Fail?
