We are throwing a free show with our good friends The Bronx and Trash Talk for a photo shoot on Sunday June 7th in downtown Los Angeles. It’s a real show, with two incredible bands… we’ll just be photographing some stuff during it. Plus Keith Morris will be DJ’ing between bands! It will make more sense if you come, but please do come. RSVP to [email protected]
We shot Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo and Yo Gabba Gabba fame for The Wire last month (a magazine we’ve wanted to shoot for forever). He was one pretty damn cool guy. He drives a ’09 M3, he even made a special drawing for Eli! One pretty damn cool guy. Outtakes and bigger versions after the jump.
Chris Hilleke just sent us this video of us on set the first day of a Converse campaign we shot in Alabama last month. He was there shooting B-Roll and snuck some shots of us. Music performed live by Walker Yancey, the 13 year old playing in the video. Thanks Chris, we never get to see our sweet photo stances.
So stoked to see Jimmy Eat World tonight. For those that don’t know it’s the 10 year anniversary of their Clarity album so they decided to tour and play it in its entirety. The album brings back so many amazing memories of going to school in Boston, living in a 400 square foot 3 bedroom apartment with at times 7 other students (Claire being the only girl). There were multiple bangs on the door to tell us to turn it down. Can’t wait. The above photo we shot a couple years back for J.E.W’s Work single.
An IM popped up yesterday from Mr. Schewchuck that went something like this…”Hey man, I’ve been seeing your photos all over town”. “Oh yeah? The Converse bus ads?”. “That and these Flosstradamus posters wheatpasted everwhere”. So off we drove to find one and the first block of posters we came across there was one, right up in the corner next to an Incredibad poster. We’ve made it!
Oh, and check out an interview with myself that reads like one big rum on sentence on TooMuchChocolate.org
