HAPPY EASTER!

I have been a bad blogger... sorry!



But I have been really busy...


SXSW (more on that later) was crazy...


All the girls had wild tattoos:


I moved to Vesterbro, where Liv and I are currently redecorating...


So for now just one thing - Happy Easter, y'all!

GO LONGHORNS!

First ever trip to a real college basketball game: Texas Longhorns vs. Baylor Bears.

The Baylor team has had recent trouble with their team play, so they decided to cover up the individual player names to increase the team spirit.


The game was long, so the girls entertained lots...


And a random spotlight on one of the university's faculty members...


Final score - Longhorns win! Yay!


Cheer this... (check out the size of the human pyramid)

DIAGONALS @ 501 STUDIOS

Time to hit a party for the Diagonals' LP release.
Location? A TV Studio on East 6th St.



The bar cooler system... sweet...


Adriel from L.A...


This artist, Miguel, uses blank white Vans as his canvas...


The artist's friend, Jose...


Our new friend got on stage...


After Lizzie and I hung out with him...


And Kerstin took him for a boogie...


A man with a fabulous beard...

WALK THRU

What do you do when you don't have a car in Austin and the only thing open is the drive thru?



You walk it....


Kids meals rock!


Happy employees.


Mmm fries....


And burger....

FIRST NIGHT IN AUSTIN!

Oooh it's hot here - 30 degrees today!
First night out in Austin on Monday, after meeting the SXSW team
We hit 6th street's "rock" bar, Jackalope.

A small handful of the SXSW crew...


My welcoming committee, Brad & Feff... :-)


Jill ... Jill ... Jill!


Austinite punks...


Time to go...

WILLIAMSBURGESQUE

Williamsburg is so hot right now....
Full of hipsters and Scandinavians, that's not me tooting the Skandi horn, it's just the Burg for ya.
Had a great time trying out their eateries (and bars), and looking through cool vintage shops. But the icing on the cake was provided by an excellent selection of up-and-coming galleries in East Williamsburg...


The BEST Bloody Mary and the BEST Lisa...


The secret art courtyard at the back of the gallery...




Street art...










Trash humor....


And the bar ... "The Metropolitaaaaan" for trashy indie gays and fannies.


Mark, Lisa and Magnus


And Gunnvør who is representing DK at Vice Mag in NYC

HARLEM - GRANNY STYLE

Granny Hardgrove was born in Harlem, somewhere on 126th St.
So it was time to check out the rue de la grand mama and the surrounding hood.



Still 126th Street...




A local school did a street presentation...




Living to recycle... recycling to live...
