First MC that's been worth buying in a good while. Go buy it monkey nuts.

The Fog

That was on my way to work this morning...it was crazy, it looked like there was a cloud just hanging out in the streets when we first walked outside. Looked amazing though, I wish I had a better camera to take some more photos with.


And below is a sneak peek at what the headings for issue 6 are going to look like...

Why? Cause her new album is the shit! That's right, I said it!

New Wheels on the Block

I have a feeling this is legit...

Three Songs... No Flash.

Last weekend was Saosin at The Arena, they rocked out!

It was also my first ever time taking photos in the front barricaded-off area in between the stage and the crowd. It was wierd being in there. I almost didn't know what to do with myself. Three songs, no flash is something that I am going to have to get used too.


Saosin.

Some heroes capped our older join-up on this wall. We must be gay cunts for using pink, it's on the internet it must be true.


Ians is in town at the moment. It's always good to see an old friend. Here's one he did with The Clanker.

We went to an artshow on the Gold Coast called "Pardon Me." It featured our homies Mikey Perry and Troy & Sarah Archer +++ Bobby Crayon and Sam Smith.


That's the artists.


I loved Troy's bike cut out of grip tape.

Putting magazines on the moon...

Okay, so, once again it's been a little while since I've chucked some photos up. It's been a busy month, we finally finished Death Before Dishonour issue 5 - If it's your thing go and buy it, we need food. A bunch of other stuff is in the works but for now here are some photos of my recent adventures.

I start my journey in the city of Melbourne; After working for 36 hours straight with no sleep; I hopped in a car with Mr. Ironlak and headed South. I hadn't been there in a while so I was excited to get down.


Love.


I was in Melbs to document the new Ironlak Team wall. These are the new Ironlak Signature colours that we worked on with the Ironlak Team. Pretty happy with how they came out.


Reals Sublime.


Sirum Black-Red.

Spectators.

If you want to see the new Ironlak wall and some other flicks head to ironlak dot com or keep your eyes out in the next Acclaim and Illegal Fame magazines.


Prahran.


Pizza girl. Sketch by Sofles.


I hooked up with my mate Trist to go check out some retail. Here he is at Schwipe's shop/ gallery with a couple of shirts that he designed.


Babushkas!


Spotted some fresh tags.


Popped by the Everfresh studio to visit Rone and the gang. So much to look at in there.


Checked out the gallery upstairs; This is by Smash for the Black + Silver exhibition.

I got a new tattoo from my homie Danny Young. He is so fuckin good.


Peace out Melbourne.
