Elliot Smith
elliot smith
when I was 14 I literally fell in love with the music of Elliot Smith after seeing Good Will Hunting which was chock full of his utterly beautiful songs. After buying the soundtrack and every one of his albums I could get my hands on I immersed myself in his dreamy tunes of lost love, heart break and hope. When I think about falling in love I think about him and the effect his music had on me. Sadly Elliot

I think I'm on a serious menswear kick after seeing Watchmen & that was the last thing I expected to walk away with from the movie, but Rorschach's trench (and hat) are pretty fab. I doubt that's what John Varvatos had in mind while designing this collection, but that's the first thing that came to mind when I saw it.

Another killer local event...
For those of you in the 305 looking for something to do next Thursday, swing by the opening of SHOPBAR. Yes it's a bar you can shop in, that offers up vintage, designer, and all around cool duds. There's going to be a fashion show, cool people, a killer DJ and should be a pretty dope deal, so please come check it out if you can!
A night to remember...
So I ended up going to see Joaquin Phoenix rap at LIV at Fontainebleau with my old friend, (& quite possibly one of the coolest kids I know) Case Watson. Mr. Watson & I hadn't seen each other in about a decade & somehow decided that the potential spectacle of seein an Academy Award nominated actor, delve into a music career was a monumental enough occassion to finally meet up, and it was absolutely fantastic.
You've probably heard or read by now that Joaquin got into an altercation during the show, but I have to say "the fight" was the highlight of this so-called show he put on. Up and coming Atlanta DJ Klever started spining some sick beats around midnight, and when Joaquin showed up around 1:30 am, he sat at his VIP table for a few minutes while people crowded around and tried to take pictures of him, like he was an endangered animal at the zoo. He finally took the stage around 2 am, "performed" one muffled and barely audicle song awkwardly, exchanged some choice words with a heckler from the audience, then jumped off the stage to pound the guy. The whole situation was over and done with in a few minutes, though most of the footage only covers the tussel. I was there and at the time it looked real enough, to be believable only in that moment since the guy was shit-talking Joaquin the moment he got on stage, but in my opinion, this whole thing has be to be a farce because it's one of the greatest acts I've ever seen in my life. Once security escorted Joaquin and the heckler out, one of the many people on stage, grabbed the mic and asked the audience to "makde some noize for my Mothafucka Joaquin," which basically meant the show was over, because immediately after DJ Craze, hit the decks and got the already riled up audience firing fake guns to M.I.A's Paper Planes. Both DJ's were really great and kept the crowd going all night, since they were the one's doing all the work.
If Joaquin is for real more power to him, but Casey Affleck (who also happens to be his brother-in-law) has been accompanying him & documenting his escapades which makes me suspicious of Joaquin's endeavor, but I'm obviously still being supportive of his art/work. Anyhoozie here are my blurry pics from the "show. "
