Practice Practice Practice

This past weekend i went to New York. Devendra Banhart was playing an event at Carnegie Hall, a night called "Welcome to Dreamland" curated by David Byrne. It was amazing...CocoRosie, Adem, Vetiver, Vashi Bunyan, and Devendra Banhart. The show blew my mind...and the trip was a blast too...so great to get back to New York and see my old friends.

After the show we went to this super intimate bar called Frankies...My good buddy Brendan Casey showed up. Brendan has been Straight Edge Vegan since i have known him almost 8 years..until a couple of weeks ago...we drank wine together at the after party and it was really nice...it is good to see sell outs who can handle their shit, and not lose there minds and turn in to sixteen year olds or something, you know what i mean? Anyway Brendan is a good dude and i will love him the same whether he is super militant or in the gutter somewhere.

JJ shaved his beard that he was growing for around two years, i think he looks pretty good without the beard...him, not so much.

Fletcher on the other hand has grown a pretty sick beard. We met up one night at the hangar bar and proceeded to put on the Thin Lizzy greatest hits record from front to back...God Damn i love Thin Lizzy...and i love Fletcher too.

Real soon i am going to post shots of me and Lexis super sweet vacations...both up and down the west coast, and then the beachside bliss of Zihuatanejo, Mexico.
