I don’t really know anything about this website but there is an interview up with Dale. There are some cool photos that I think TDP shot so you should check it out.
Mesta came through the other day and dropped off some clips for me to edit. I;ve been pretty busy freelancing and working on lame projects like this one for Kings of Leon.
I am working on some logo resolves right now for DK which have been taking longer than I thought. My friend Jesse is a sales rep at DK and he is the one that always makes sure that we got plenty of DK goods to giveaway at First Rule jams. Jesse used to live in the Bay Area a long time ago. Back in the good old days when there were weekly street rides in Berkeley and trails were every where.
Hawaii Taylor’s bike has been recovered by none other than Dale Ollison, who swooped on it when criminal mastermind Evan Lomax walked into Dale’s place of work, Bay Area Bikes, to get a flat fixed on the stolen bike. Apparently Evan doesn’t use the internet, because the only change to the bike was a poorly performed sticker removal, and he was wearing the same hat that he had on in his TCU mugshot. Case closed.
Joe Readel’s band, The Creak, just recorded a bunch of new shit and put it up on their MySpace. It’s pretty rad; bluegrass songs about getting shitty off 40s and whatnot.
I saw your post about the bike stolen from the Clocktower, read the name in suspect, and felt I should share some possibly relevant info with you.
When I was still in the first stage of building BayAir, Evan Lomax came through to help out for a bit. I asked him to stay and watch the park for about 20 minutes (so we didn’t have to pick up all the tools) while Shane and I left to go buy some more lumber. When we returned, Evan was outside the gate and left in a hurry. As soon as I got inside the park, I realized it had been thrashed. Various items were stolen and broken, the food in my cooler was strewn everywhere and replaced with screws and trash, but worst of all, a Skill Saw was run through one of the finished ramps. After repeatedly calling him and his step father, he finally came down only to hide behind his step father, Mitchell, stare at the ground, and deny having anything to do with the vandalism. I told him he was never welcome at the park again and that if I caught him there he would have a problem.
I believe Evan’s cell phone number is (510) 421-1324.
