I bet his name is "Oakland" and I bet the tool roll is artisan-made with Horween Leather. $100 says those are Randolph Engineering glasses as Ray Ban is so "yesterday". I'm guessing he's got more waxed-cotton then a Filson Flagship store. The guy kinda reminds me of Daniel...

On a technical note, how do you embed a video like that in a post? I don't see an icon with that function. What am I missing?

You gotta stay up on pop culture - in fact it's damn hard to avoid it!

And by the way...Bad Brains was waaaaaaaaaaaaay over-rated! They opened for Minor Threat in DC a couple times - the key word being "opened".

They were okay.

Speaking of minor threat (and yes Ian and all the mackayes for that matter, were affluent bussed in swells) Ian and his wife popped in the local bike shop here and played.

he really is arrogant...but you have to separate the artist from the art a lot of the time.

He always seemed to fashion himself as a punk poet. His head undoubted grew bigger when he formed FUGAZI. I saw Ian and Henry Rollins hanging out around the old fire station in Georgetown before it became Dean & Deluca. The "Dischord house" wasn't overly far from there....Ahhhh, the heady days of the DC punk scene! I got my first fake ID from Electromax!

pop culture is a disease. It's a form of politireligion to brain wash an already uninformed consumer to become even less informed and more irrational.
it's definitely unavoidable but you don't have to keep up to date on it!

My take: anything that promotes or popularizes a solid axle Land Rover is an absolute good.




(Even if it's ghey)

The owner of that company sets up a mobile shop on the weekends in SOHO with a trailer on the back of the 90. I see it whenever I go to the Fjällräven store, because I'm that hip.
