12-yr Anniversry of the BOA shootout


In 1997, the film HEAT seemed to become an actual event envisioned by 2 gun-wielding drug-induced thieves who attempted to seize north hollywood's Bank of America and flee under what soon became a flanking of 200 local police and swat.
The 44 minuted shootout was even caught on news camera by lunatic reporters on foot and in helicopters. In all, Larry Eugene Phillips Jr. and Emil Matasareanu fired over 1,000 rounds while cloaked in enough body armor and high on enough opiates to withstand multiple gunshots fired upon them.

Reason #1 why Katt Williams is a G

Full Tilt Pinball & Ice Cream Parlor


FULL TILT
This gem does in fact combine both Pinball with Ice Cream...but wait, there's more! This Parlor happens to be located in the Heart of White Center! Yes, i know, White Center! (9629 16th ave sw-see map below)

I recently paid a visit here where they happen to make their own personal ice cream and even their own waffle cones...fuckin' waffle cones, straight from the iron into thy hand with warmth!
Not only do they serve up fresh ice cream flavors like: Horchata, Mexican Chocolate, Licorice, or Cardamom Rose, but they own 6 pinball games featuring my favorite - Twilight Zone as well as Jacks to Open, No Good Gofers, FUNHOUSE, Mr & Mrs Pac Man, Ready, Aim, Fire, Sinbad; and even some classic arcade games like Tron.

They even promote local bands, comic book artists and graffiti artists. Bands play weekly, comic books are available for sale and graff writers hang their art.
I happened to be in luck last Saturday evening with being graced by some deliverence-style-cloddhopper band in full swing, followed by a live hiphop band.
Next door happens to be Seattle's Premiere Latino Dance Club, Revolucion. What more can you ask for...booze i assume, well, you're in luck, because they provide such fluid to feast upon while tilting pinball games and lapping up ice cream.
White Center never seemed so right!
Go visit Full Tilt and check the Adult Store across the street after you do the macarena next door!
Cheers.

Hunter S. Thompson lives on!


February 20th marks the 4-yr anniversary of HST's death.
Why do i always talk about him? Because he was a journalist-genius pressing on with his pen, pad and typewriter as long as possible despite the hopeless saga of America and debauchery.
Plus he liked to ride motorcycles..
Check out his Fear & Loathing on Campaign 2004 piece via the Rolling Stone link below.

Prepare for an upcoming STAY GOLD re-vamping

Date: TBA
In the meantime however, i promised a DJ Foodstamp mixtape, so enjoy a live mix of my RENO 09' set down at WAC-XII.
It's only about 40 mins in length, but peep it.
The sound quality isn't amazing, in fact it's ghetto-janky but that's my style on the low-budget tip.
My boy Reese used his laptop microphone to record it, so you'll hear people talking in the background, don't fret . . . honestly, it feels like a party despite the quality.

Track List:
The Beatnuts - Watch out now
Ghostface - Be easy
Ol' Dirty - Shimmy shimmy ya
Wu-Tang - Shame on a nigga
Incredible Bongo Band - Apache
Larry & Fonce Mizell - Shifting gears
The Bamboos - What you do
Babe Ruth - The mexican
Kurtis Blow - Rappin' blow
Average White Band - Pick up the pieces
Young MC - I gotta know how
Sugarhill - Rapper's delight
Curtis Mayfield - Move on up
