This kid in this flick has JUST the right amount of flavor that was typical back in the day... that is really kinda non-existent..(without looking INCREDIBLY hard... it's out there, but it usually shows up at graf-jams n whatnot...aight' imma shut my grill and get back to work! Nobody likes a 'back-in-the-dayist'!!!!)

Enjoy Your Friday Everybody.

Happy Friday. B.Phlecksi Parmella Used To Pop. He Likes This.

Even though these cats are totally post 2K
This is surely on some back innaday'
I'm talking we used to break this kinda stuff down in 1983!!!!
(i know, we old, yo.)

And we used to do it to this...

Man, Aloe Blacc; This Is Beautiful.

I Hella (Heart) Oakland.

Local Artist and Freaky Cartographer, Jess Anthony set things off at Smokey's Tangle last night. Employing musician chums and all around heavy-hittin' guitar juggernauts Mike Hamm and Quinn DeVeaux to set the ambiance.

BOTH of these gentlemen are KICK-A$$ singer-songwriter-guitarists. Check out DeVeaux and his band here... and catch Mike Hamm's melodic ensemble, at the next Free Friday's De Young Museum happening September 9th.

Folks came in off the street to enjoy wine, cheese, a part organic - part textile - part robot - postcard machine, and a back room of art where Kitty Oakland t-shirts are found for purchase

(my personal favorite, soooo rad.)

Serendipitous and fortuitous happenstance put me in the place to be last night, reminding me why Oakland, well,... is pretty freaking awesome.

(just another angelic reminder...)

Gonna see the A's play the Mariners today with Part-Two.

And now,.... if we could only do something about those Raiders!!
Let's GO OAKLAND!!!
