Changing Paces

I've been really suicidal lately, but ive been getting the bombest sleep yo!

Tuesday I headed to Dance but stopped at Zac Roanes pad before hand. Bazzle freaked out again even though I've seen him 4+ times ha ha. Zac showed me his latest painting which was pretty sick!! I swear he doesnt get enough recognition for his artwork. Its so unique and raw, I want to fill my entire house with it once I have one lol.
We got to the club and Zac started sculpting a zombie head. I wish you could of all seen this before, it was just a cube of sculpting clay. I had no idea he could sculpt. Zac can paint, air brush, do makeup, act, and sculpt....every week another talent breaks out.
Enlarge this picture, he busted this out in less than an hour. He headed home to finish it up and take care of Hina. Ill make sure to keep everyone posted on the final outcome.
The company I work for had a Christmas dinner, everyone was supper dressed up and the entrance was made of fake snow and elegant lights. It was really classy and high end, I had to wear a Suit and lyn a nice dress!! Everyone looked really nice and it was neat to see everyone in a non working environment.
The whole place was really nice and the food was pretty good. Usually when food is catered in large amounts something is off but this was actually good. The company did a raffel and gave away an X box 360, 2 Ipads, and a grip of other prizes. I took pictures with my dad and lyn and we headed off to The Bunny Hut party for Turkeey.
There is always one person with lights at every party or club you'll go to in southern California. Some people are good at light shows others not so much. Either way its always fun to shoot lights with a 2 second delay, f-stop 7.1, 1600 ISO. Try it, I used my standard flash to capture the initial image.
This is Amy we had health class together, I think I had health during summer school my sophomore year at Norco High. 4 years and this girl remembered me ha ha!! She had the nicest cheek bones ever!!
One of my favorite things about roaming is talking to a bunch of random people. I got offered jobs for photography, met new faces that know some old faces, drugs, alcohol. the usual ha ha. I still dont drink, I have a better time talking to faces then drinking the night down.
This has to be one of the Sexyest pictures that the bunny hut will ever have!! She look like she has sex hair!! I had band practice saturday morning and out drummer didnt come to practice, he didn't specifically tell anyone he wasnt going to practice but kinda assumed we'd figure it out. We ended up just waiting for him and didnt get to practice, he was sick though so i understood. One of our guitarists was joking about taking apart his whole drum set down to the last bolt. ha ha imagine though, you being a drummer and walking in on your drum set completely taken apart!
This was Day 2 of Turkeeys birthday celebration, the place was full of people from last nights party!! I got to play with some exposure and got this with a 2 second exposure setting!! This is my art through photography.
My favorite thing about playing with exposure settings is being able to capture movement. This guy was throwing down the LA Shuffle. A type of dance style that emerged from the Cali rave scene and now thriving at house parties and clubs.
DJ Four Four had a sick ass set like always, Ive been thinking about asking him to mix a song for my website. I have no idea how I'd post it up but I could figure something out.
The Chase was the last DJ I got to shoot, I had the hardest time getting a shot of his face. NO idea how I got this but I was more than happy with the lights. The web of lights on the left was from hanging Christmas lights I threw in. The funnyest thing this weekend was this Lunesta sleep aid commercial that talked about one of its side affects making users suicidal ha ha, so I thought about some guy telling his friend "I've been really suicidal lately but ive been getting the bomb-est sleep!!!"

You want me to come upstairs with you?

Our new guitarist Adam had his first show this Saturday in Pomona. The place had about 45-60 heads that showed up. I fucking love how strong the pomona music scene is, its the same faces plus a few new ones every time. Adams girlfriend said that he was freaking out on the drive to the show.
I was really nervous for Adam because I was curious to weather or not he would move around a lot on stage. I was quickly surprised at the beginning of the first song that Adams head was almost hitting the floor as he was headbanging. Thank fucking GOD!!! He kept up and got down for the whole set, our 5 song set turned into a 8 song set. I would honestly play forever if I could ha ha. I was so tired....I always think musicians should go all out during a live set until their legs give out. you should feel extremely tired and sore the next day, if not....your not doing your job!!
The performance went really well and we were getting compliments on the new material!!! I released the new shirts that I worked on all morning and we sold 23 by the end of the show. Only 97 more to sell till we can hit the studio....maybe in about 1month or so.
The same faces always pop up at the shows, I've been luck that everyone is so supportive of us. Pomona house shows are more of a family reunion than a backyard show. Everyone is so friendly and open to what ever. The life of the entire show is nothing that you could pay for at a venue. its exclusive. its beautiful. its real.

Our girls always come out and support, they had a little hangout sesh which consisted of talking shit about us. better they talk amongst themselves then bitch at us ya know....ha ha jk. Adams family came down too, they wanted to snag 10 shirts......$100 closer to recording. I was a little jealous of how supportive his family was of him, my dads only been to one show in the past 6 years that ive been taking music seriously. I do it all for them. enough said. thank you for everything :] ( new zombie head shirts made by ZAC ROANE, printed by myself)
Dance has been a little slow for the past 2 weeks, the regular faces always roll through and its still a great time. They had a "girls get in for free" night which brought in a lot of heads....
The Bunny Hut has been handling their shit in the back room, its crazy to watch them grow week by week. I swear in a few years these guys will have such a large presence in Los Angeles.
Fuckin Texas.
I went to Vegas w/Lyndsay Marie and her family and we stayed at the Flamingo Hotel.
The city was kinda dead but there was still a grip of shit to do. We walked in the rooms and I swear I was in a high end hotel. This was by far the nicest hotel I've ever been in.
Lyndsay and Lori were freaking out over the bathroom which was lit in pink and yellow lights. There was a TV in the mirror and a nice sound system. The bathroom didn't have any locks and you could totally hear when anyone was taking a terd in the bathroom.... :[
I'm still not 21 so I ended up staying in the hotel and studying for my Marketing exam, I officially finished the entire book. Lots of interesting stuff that will help out my band, clothing line, and future career. As soon as i finished studying @ 2am it started raining. I decided to head out and take pictures. I was able to capture the rain as it fell....one of my prized shots.
Within the first 5 minutes I was offered coke by some random sketch guy ha ha. I kept wandering around and was completely in love with the Eiffel tower in the middle of the strip. I had to keep jumping under small trees to make sure the rain didnt hit the camera.
Around 3am I met up with lyndsay at this club in Caesars Palace, they were pretty ....friendly. Of course Lori had mad game like always and lyndsay did her regular thing of getting free drinks from a grip of random dudes. We met up with her family at this little place called Peppermill which had some bomb food. We got into the hotel lobby and some decent looking black woman went up to Brad and asked him if he wanted her to go back upstairs with him. my first reaction was that he had game, I though how strait forward. my dumb ass would of though she was just a friendly person and I would of said "yea sure". He said no thank you, and we went up....it then hit me she was a prostitute!!!!!
We didnt end up sleeping since her uncle and cousin snored super, super loud. it was 7am and I decided I wasnt going to hold my fart in anymore. I let it loose a 5 second long bomb and was matched by Uncle Brad. He got up like nothing happened and was like "lets gamble" ha ha I couldn't stop laughing. He thought we were on drugs since I didn't sleep and I kept laughing at the face that he farted the instant I let one out. This is what we look like at 9am...no sleep
I got home to my dogs. the one on the left is Amorette, look up the name. its who she is. The one on the right is Tank, he's a complete fat ass. I swear there's a little part in all of us that is crazy, that part that makes you talk to babies in stupid voices and talk to dogs like there humans
