Here’s the gallery of images from the Woods Party. If you werent there, cops basically followed us around town until we finally went so far away that they didnt care any more…. sorta…
anyway, here they are:
///WOODS PARTY GALLERY!///
It was Sunday. The town, Monterey.
It was barely awake. i think, besides the large mob we caravaned with and the other bands that showed up, there were three visitors.
None the less, the show went down.
Opening with a humorous hip hop trio, the night wasn’t going to be so lame after all.
The next set was hot.
Due to being such a small venue the owners wanted to shut down at 11 pm…
Too bad Nursery only had 5 minutes to play.
That probably explains the shortage of pictures and footage of them that night.
Despite the brevity of the show, the night was not totally over.
All that matters was that we got home safely.
///The Monterey Gallery///
I SEE SCUM!
Yes! The Santa Cruz Underground Music Fest.
Hella local bands played back to back. Everything from electronic and acoustic sets to some hardcore and punk rock shreadage.
Nursery.
Rare Times.
Good People got to rock out first in the Bike Church.
Acid Tapestries.
This is Cool Band Now.
There were tons more bands to see. Too bad my camera died. Besides, I could hardly stand up after a whole day of bouncing between the hot sunny outdoor shows and stuffy-damp-indoor-noise-pits.
The Hundred Days, Scissors for Lefty and Saint Motel!
Great show at Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco.
everything went black and white today. i guess my photog class is rubbing off on me and rubbing the colour off my pictures… herrherr

///BONUS—> 35 MM Scans///
that link will bring you to the gallery of some 35mm negatives i scanned super-ghetto-style with my iphone and a normal shitty scanner. whadyaknow, it works…
///Xiu Xiu @ The Crepe Place Gallery!///
Xiu Xiu came to have some crepes in santa cruz last weekend. some very noisy crepes.
aside from nearly getting my ear drums blasted out,
i nearly got nailed in the head from standing too close to the symbol rack.
The incredibly gorgeous Noveller.
Tune Yards.

///215 STOREY GALLERY PICTURES STUFF WOW///
it was hot, it was stuffy, the room was more packed than a fiend’s smokes and everyone was happy. one hell of a show hosted by the residents of storey.
too bad i missed all of the first bands. i did manage to make it on time for a banging set by Poison Diamond front man and his new lady vocalist.
special thank you to ken for taking photos that night so as i didnt have to juggle cameras.
here’s the footage reserved for the no-shows.

This isn’t a hoax this is alittle ridiculous this is f’real noise this is sloooow trucks, and I don’t mean the kind you see in traffic. They’re gonna make you scream and they sound so clean like a long night or a car crash. Trucks reared themselves into Sub Mission the day after new years and my, what a good way to put the decade into ignition. I also have to add- the chick drummer was sassy. Enjoy.
SLOW TRUCKS
DEAD WESTERNS
Check out more photos from that night!!!

…a collaberative post by El Topo, Wakko, and Totes
I lost my car, I spent about 45 min after the show trying to keep myself between my guitar and the pouring rain as i walked up and down the streets of North Beach looking for it. I gave up, and was lured in to a place called “The Church Key” with the promise of a free drink. I took a seat at the bar between some hippy chick who went on and on about how she hates l.a. but loves the 60’s and a jewish guy playing T-Rex songs on a Martin DM. I sat there until about an hour after closing, had a few beers and talked with the bar tender till i decided i was finally drunk enough to locate the benz.
As for The Beehive Spirit, lets just say it rocked hard enough to make me forget where i parked my car. And im pretty sure the only other time that has happened was after Coachella.
Thanks guys.
here’s some photos from their show at Grant and Green…

WHEREWOLVES.net decided to kick off the holiday season the best way we know how, and nothing raises those holiday spirits more then throwing on your space suit and jumping in for a ride with MOON CADILLAC.
Hope you all had a good time, and a HapPy ThanKsGiviNg!

check out how damn much this bad boy is going for. this is an authentic 1990 super soaker 50. i want, i drool, i must have.
this was the hot shit in the hot days of child hood. you just couldn’t keep up with those lame lil squirt guns pushing a piss-stream of water a measly two feet.
but this bad boy. oh no.
man, back in the day these things went for like 40 bucks or something. maybe cheaper. i remember getting my very first one back in like 1991. so stoaked. stoaked to get soaked.
i met up with the other kids on the block and drew the line. cross it, and prepare to get damp.
now, this particular one is being listed for auction right now and the seller is asking for 200 bones for this aqua-blaster-from-the-paster. haha daaaamn i wish i had that much so i could get this bad boy.
if you remember back in the day, the 1990’s to be generally exact, summers were hot and we kids needed to get some steam let off and since video games didnt have as many interesting or kid friendly shooter games we went out side on hot days and made the pavement smell like that sweet evaporating summer pavement day would smell. water all over the streets, kids screaming, running around, having a blast. now dont forget about all those other wacky and crazy types of tactical-tear-tossers. like this one, could get you moist from 100 feet away! even this one, which isnt as old or original as the SS-50, is being listed with a 230 buck buy it now request. daaaaaamn. i want it!
and here you see the updated version of the SS100 which was adapted from the SS50 you see above. watching the evolution of these awesome toys is pretty interesting; although i feel there was a de-evolution of these things, and although quality went way up, just look at them now…. not cool. too bad it didnt give you diy ooze packets you can toss in the tank to gross out and destroy your inferior human enemies.
now to whom do we owe gratitude for all the fun and joy propelled from those canons? Lonnie Johnson. a jolly man that without my child hood would have been either dry or limited to peepee shooters and garden hoses.
damn, now here is the water gun of all water guns. the pimped out ss50. as the review says, its still a primitive water gun technology, yet its extremely good at conserving water to get a hundred more splats on your opponent while they get three good irrigation on you and your soggy trousers.
get a closer look at the SS-50
now, i hope something within you compels you to purchase one of these and send it to me so i can be a kid again.
i am envious of this person’s collection…
