Evan Dando- 'Baby I'm Bored'


Live blatantly irresponsible for your actions and become famous while doing it.
And besides, It's much lyrically stronger than Rhett Miller's 'The Instigator'.

DEATH SQUAD MC Article


Interesting article regarding both the credibility and authenticity of a clothing/goods designer in Oceanside California. Although I do not personally know the author of the article, nor the designer in question, I do find value in his opinions regarding the exploitation of social sub cultures (in this case motorcycle culture/and apparently Union Made Americana) and the reckless borrowing of others designs and graphics. I do not consider myself an expert on motorcycles even though I have owned a Harley for four years, but I am confident in failing to see any integrity in blatantly branding your business on something you have no perspective on. In addition, after researching the accused designer, it seems they have built an entire identity from the most prevalent trends in the fashion/design industry at the moment without any intention of acknowledging the original concepts or offering a foundation of understanding. It should only feel right to pay tribute to what inspires us and not further dilute the genuine and original article.
