i had a chance to see Step Brothers tonight...it wasn't that bad.
it was really funny and random at some parts..
i wont give the movie away but tell me why you see Will Ferrell's balls?
but it was pretty good...slow at some parts...but funny! go see it!

well..i was gone for a little bit.
i was actually painting my girlfriend's parents new house..
painting is tougher than i thought!

but anyways...i hear that lisa (crossxamine)
is about to get some fresh shit printed up soon!
and also if you didn't already see
www.crossxamine.com is made!
(maybe a DA x CXA production?)
nothing like you've ever seen. stay tuned.

just for the hell of it...check out the updated desktop.
it's rather large..give it time to load!


i'll be the first one to say...the new AOL Instant Messenger is WORTHLESS.
it's got all kidns of crappy other features that are pointless.
so yes, you see the OLD AIM that i'm using.
not only can i warn people again, but it runs really fast.
go here if you're interested in getting the older AIM's and other programs!
OldVersion.com

what can i say about coldplay that hasn't already been said?
i wouldn't consider myself a fan of Coldplay...but i went for my girlfriend who is completely obsessed with them..but i must say...
they put on one killer ass show.
the way he sings is funny...he looks like he's having a seizure just running around stage...but it was intense..
the highlight of the night was in the middle of "Yellow" he sang..."...bottles in the clubbbbb..."
from lil wayne - lollipop!
here's some pics for you all..taken by a Treo.





this one was when the whole band ran to the audiance and sang a different version of "Yellow"




the end of the show..with a ton of butterfly's falling from the rafters.
big huge thanks to lisa for the tickets! or was it waldo? whoever...thank you!

ALL to hang out with friends!
i drove from Long Beach to Reseda then to Corona THEN to Orange County THEN back to Reseda....THEN BACK TO LONG BEACH.
but it was well worth it, i had a great 4th of july and got to kick it with Mister Jon Chase for a quick minute..but it's always good to make somebody i look up to laugh....even if it was for a minute.
had a fun ass time with little charmer and big charmer...always fun.
expect big big big things from Charmer and cXa..believe me.

big thank you goes to Jon for helping us find him in the crowd of madness.
be sure to check me and lisa out in his blog with the post titled "The 4th"
we received the long hauler award!
THANKS JON!

Mad Child of Swollen Members.
these guys are the best thing i have ever heard. i remember the first time i heard them and this was when i was listening to rock and punk. (yeah i had a punk phase.)
i heard them and was instantly turned onto hip hop...not rap. i went out and bought all their cd's and digital merch i could find on them...but ..sadlyt it was all stolen..
but these dudes are real lyrical which is what hip hop is really all about. though i will say, i followed them since they were just getting big in Canada..and then Moka Only joined the group...i stopped following them because i felt they became whack after Moka Only. but from what i hear Mad Child (my favorite member of Swollen) is releasing a Solo Album in 2008! yesss!
just a couple of my favorite tracks are
"kiling spree" which is the sickest by far
"ventilate" in this one they're going off on each other!
"lady venom" such a sick and different beat
"breathe" with nelly furtado!
"bring it home" with whack ass Moka Only
and a bunch of other ones...but those are a few for you to get started on some research!
i wont type out all of their info here..so read their wikipedia page.
Swollen Members Wikipedia Page

and check out their myspace as well.
Swollen Members MySpace
Mad Child's MySpace

and i found Mad Child's new Solo Album cover on SwollenMembers.com

let me set the record straight.
there has been a few "comments" about this shirt that it looks like a Temple Effectives shirt.
not the fact that Lil Wayne is on it..but the fact that a RAPPER is on a shirt..that must mean i'm stealing an idea? comparing me to another major company is actually a compliment...but..

THEY DID NOT INVENT THE IDEA OF RAPPERS ON A SHIRT..
though i will give up respect where respect is due..Temple Effectives are very sick...and i've been preaching about them before many of you knew who they were. (before the "blood money" sweatshirt.)

and that's the problem with some people these days...most of them can't appreciate work. they always have to compare...and i'm not saying that it's hard work...but it's still artwork...but i'm saying people always have to compare...like
"oh his work looks like The Hundreds."
and
"oh his work looks like FMS and Rogue Status."

i would never take an idea from another company and flip it to make it my own..let's get that shit straight. i can't speak for other companies...but i know what i'm doing with my business..and one of those things includes NOT STEALING IDEAS FROM OTHER COMPANIES. but don't get me wrong, this is in no way..shape...or form..me being cocky. i'm not trying to be and i apologize if i am...but this is really frustrating. even if it was a comment that wasn't meant to be blown out of proportion like i am doing right now...it's still something that needs to be adressed before people slowly start thinking, "well fuck that guy is just getting ideas off of other companies! he sucks!"

i personally do think that i am not the best at what i do and i personally don't think i'm any good at what i do. sure i'm humble and i know i have a lot of work to do to even BE considered a good artist.
so, with this being said..all of you who think i am a big joke...and that what i do is a joke..then don't visit my page. simply put.
you don't like a TV show...do you sit there and watch it and talk shit about it?
or do you flip the channel and watch something else?
i'm only doing what i love to do regardless of what anybody says. i'm me and nobody else...and we shouldn't be comparing artists to other artists...we're doing what we love to do.


(by the way, if you're going to post a comment on here..
be real and put your name on your comments.)

well, a new design faster than i thought i would. i actually messed up the old design by trying to tweek it ever so slightly..but it ended up throwing off the whole page.
so i figured the best way to bounce back from that is to design a whole NEW page!

Faster...More Organized..Clean!
all of your pleasure!
and what you may find interesting is that my good friend Jon Quiles from Boston took that picture...OF BOSTON. so yes, i hate to say it Laker fans...but that's a picture of Boston. it pains me to even say the name Boston...ahhhhh

and with this design, i'm a step further from finishing DestruktiveArt.Com
more and more art will be coming soon, so keep me bookmarked!

no they aren't dirty either. just the camera..trust me
if i got these bad boys dirty...i'd be crying a river.

the inside of Space Mountain!
these were some old pictures from about a month ago...but i was stuck inside..and they turned the lights on. I JUST TOLD MY FRIEND before the ride started that i've heard the ride has broke and people have been inside with the lights on.

Boom, the coaster turns off...lights go on afterwards.
and there's the pictures!

let's hope so

lisa already knows what's up.
do you?

shhhh...too exclusive. WILL BE PRINTED.
so i WILL be keeping my eyes out there for any fakes.
fuck all of you unoriginal companies who take ideas from other people.
i'll keep everyone posted on this one...so SPREAD THE WORD!
destruktive art is on the come up!

maybe most of you know i'm a gamer.
i used to play all the old school systems along with the most current ones.
AND yes...i used to play Starcraft and CounterStrike..
well yesterday...i had the chance to pick up this game..and i must say this is just simply...a bad ass game. there's so much interaction in this game...it's unbelievable.
and the graphics are INSANE...especially because i have the HDMI cable for PS3.
i recommend this game...but of course...
nothing better than GTA 4.
