So the other night we're just hanging out at the pad and someone rings the doorbell. We find mister world traveler Gabe Griffin standing there! Fresh back from his voyage, he just got back into town and was making the rounds. Welcome home buddy.

A few FRISCO Chopper rareties left

I have (ALL GONE!) New Old Stock Frisco Choppers Swazie T's left. Two sided with the bridge logo on the back. Both are XL but fit like a LARGE. I have dated these back to at least 1985. These are my last ones out of the 12 I had, they aren't growing on trees and we certainly aren't making them. SOLD OUT, FOREVER!





Next are my last two New Old Stock Frisco Choppers shirt with the big FRISCO script on the front. One shirt is black with white letters and the other is black with red letters. Both are two sided with the bridge logo on the back. Both are XL, but fit like a large. The one with red ink seems like it might be a little short, so be warned, not sure why. $60 each

wighat in the breeze

Zac from HEAVY just strapped his new FMA hat to the handle bars of his shovel and he an The Nutz rode about 800 miles to davenport and back. Sweet.

The Warlocks

I love a band from LA called The Warlocks. Been a fan for more than a few years now, but i still think SURGERY is their best (followed by Phoenix)and the shows they played around that time (2005?). With a name like this and having two drumers, you conjur up all kinds of heavy riffage, but they aren't heavy in those terms. Put some headphones on and sit back at night with the lights out and they are BIG on SURGERY. They can have anywhere between 5 and 10 people playing with them at any point in time or tour.
I shot lots of their shows for them and posterity as well as a few promo shoots for their Heavy Devy Skull Lover album that ran in a bunch of magazines (that i never got a physical copy of...) in the US and many in Europe (Americans still love shit for music).

times

lots of things happened over the weekend, some good, some whatever, some bad. worked on my shovel frame a bunch=good. missed T-bone's get together=bad. LB swapmeet=good. hung out with the QP and went to bed early on sunday night=good. Poon got hit by a car this morning riding his panhead on the way to teach the first day of school=bad. The lady "didn't see him" and made a right turn from the left lane going the same way as him. Luckily he's OK, pretty banged up though, lots of lumps and little cuts. Pretty luck actually, bike wasn't totally mangled either but it's still a bummer. bent rim, risers, sissy bar, foot controls, pipes, chain guard, scraped lots of stuff too.
Be careful out there.

the cool kids

have one wheel choppers! Fill'er up!

Deamons B gone

It was an honor to be the first to shoot Exorcist's Delight for the next Street Chopper since its fresh restoration(Kayelynn and Chopper Jim were still putting it together two hours before this outtake was taken).


Denver hisself on her on the date which is obvious.

The fruits of the devil

can you say sweet Triumph? Say hello to Satan!



And speaking of Triumph drag bikes...don't forget about our race-ready RED Pre Unit Triumph drag bike shirt we've been selling the crap out of for over a year now...don't be fooled by un-chopped out imatations...maybe pair this with one of our sharp lookin' hats!

Happy B-day buddy

Mr. Harpoon turned 29 today, let's party!
