Hello
So for the passed 3 weeks I have been in a chaotic move. Just an apartment and a few zip codes away. But kind of if I can be emotional. Then yes I’ll use that word although I’m not an emotional type. Been in my last place 9 years. My kid was actually a kid when I moved in. And moving now he actually turned 22 on the 25TH. He’s a grown man and the only person that physically helped me out. Clearing out sorting and going through 8 year’s of shit and downsizing. I managed to make the battleground meet. But sadly I wanna say I missed Aidan’s Ride. I still supported and will continue to do so. Steve puts a great event and after party together.
I missed the damn NJ Iron swap which killed. But I was neck deep in the shit.
I will however be happy to say I am done. Aside from cleaning an old fridge. Grabbing a few contractor bags. I have managed to get out of one place and into another on my own as I have with some help from family in a little under 3 weeks while working my crazy schedule.
Went about it smart got keys opened door had internet guy here an hour later. Everything else is just follow up.
What this means. “The Asshole is back… repeat. The Asshole is back….” ( lil people vs Larry Flynt humor IYKYK )
What better way to get it rippin. Keep your eyes peeled for a night of fun at the Ear Inn brought to you by various cool folks but posted by Tim and Gerard first from Basket Case. I will keep that info flowing.
It’s not like it’s for me but it will be like an I’m coming out party because I haven’t gotten to shoot or intermingle in some time and it’s killing me. So much great stuff going on the past few weeks. Including tomorrow’s Levittown crews last Chops and Hops. Look for the flyer on Mikes or Ryan’s pages on IG. And of course Nov 7. The pumpkin Run. I will be there.
Winter is coming and I will be organizing some nerd walks around Manhattan in colder weather for folks that are interested. Street shooting before and during the holiday season. So if interested def hit me up on one of the pages.
Haha oh yeah to boot last Thursday was in a crazy fuckin wreck at work got Tboned in a company van luckily I wasn’t driving and I’m the only one that wasn’t injured. But wow right before the crazy move weekend we’re more happened than any part of it.
I won’t get into the mist of how pics started flying by people with the Ai but my co workers are fuckin nuts and I love them all.
Only thing I can add is during the move some new copies of zine surfaced. I’ll have mailing and stuff set up in a week or 2 after address transition is completed. And I already have holiday print orders flowing in so I’ll put together one big order for those and that will most likely be that.
I wanna thank those that do and always support. And also wanna thank a lot for putting true colors out there. Recently me being out of the loop it’s funny how fast when you ain’t the man every where with a camera how fast your irrelevant to some. And that’s great trust me. I am all about lately being real with folks and downsizing a circle to real interactions with folks that are genuine and not out here for a fuckin high school popularity contest.
This Thursday I’ll be out in Asbury park for the annual trunk or treat so come out and have a good time and see everyone. Not sure if it’s the season closer but I’ll def be there. My Pop may be bringing the newly engined 62 Nova so get out and check out what we call “ The Shitbox Nova” stickers and merch coming soon lol
I’ll end this by saying some different things started happening with issue 2 in my hunt for an artist to work with I got a killer response from a few actually and may look to change my layouts and include some different folks some on a smaller scale some on a larger scale. I was happy to have interest from someone I have known and had personal paint work done by before. Known him in same circles for almost 30 years going back to 90s when we stomped the FIT grounds in NYC keep your eyes peeled for issue 2 of the zine of zines in winter or 26/27.
