Track Attack this friday!

"To June 27th Track Attack has moved this month! Same place, same time, same ruckus. This time we will caravan to The Satellite Bar at 308 E. Colfax for the Bootleg Sessions V.2 premiere! They have cheap beer and rad bartenders, so come!"

This post was stolen with courtesy of those rad fuckers at Cycle Jerks. Flyer courtesy of Phillip "Champ" Carlson.

- I too love it when Phil gets all artsy fartsy. :)

Colfax Fun

Those guys on Colfax know how to have a good time. The Super Fresh! Block Party consists of a Denver Roller Dolls fashion show, live painting, live music, and art shows. All of the information can be found on The Fabric Lab's blog, or The Shoppe's blog.

I hope to see you there.

Jimi Benedict


While surfing Emptees I stumbled upon a really talented Illustrator who goes by Jimiyo. Above is a process video that he created while working on a T-shirt design. To see more of his work check out his website or his blog.

Andrew Carr

So, I may be a little bias when I say that Andrew Carr has a really good eye for design because he is a friend of mine whom I have sat close to in numerous classes and worked with side by side. If you check out his portfolio for yourself you'll see that his skills are definitely on point, especially with typography. Andy is currently working at Faction Media, and if I know him well enough he is also taking on freelance clients.

Keep flossing Andy. 'Cause that shit's clean.

Update on the Admin

I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm doing well. The Venogram (pictures above) broke up the blood clot that stretched from my jugular to my biceps. In the photo you can see the blood flow in black. I will be undergoing the full surgery where they remove the R1 rib and balloon the subclavian vein on Wednesday 6/11. Then on Friday 6/13 they will be preforming another Venogram to make sure that the blood is clotting correctly.

The blog may be on hold through out the week unless some of the other contributers wish to continue making posts in my absence.

Keep it real homies. I'll do my best to make a quick and gracious recovery.
