Killing Hipsters!

Paul Gray RIP

Fact: If I was much, MUCH, younger I would have probably been the biggest fan when this came out.

Todo El Mundo Bailar! // EL BAILE DEL GUERRILLERO

This is some real serious political shit right here. But the whole world parties to this!

Street Viewin' Googlemaps

The Google Street View application thingy is apparently quite awesome. You see what really goes on on dem streets, worldwide too. Robberies, violence, peeing, people with big guns, puking, flashing titties, Samurai sword fights, people getting arrested and whatnot.

Some people's been complaining about the loss of privacy and shit like that but I say f**k that, if you do stupid/cool stuff on public place, someone is bound to see you, or even better you're actually asking for it. Damn, that what human life is like. Hatzios Kriton would approve.

Funk Balls

Now this ish is crazy. Cariocas gone mad...

"Police believe at least 60 young Brazilians have lost their lives in funk balls; dozens more have sustained serious injuries. Some have been paralyzed, some blinded.

Funk balls look like ordinary nightclubs with one big difference: They play music that incites the crowd to bloodshed. Funk's anger is contained not only in lyrics of murder and revenge but wrapped up in the very sound of the music, in a rhythm that chimes with the speed of a fist smashing into an enemy's flesh."

I know this is an old article, but still...

Critically massive in SF

I'll be spending two weeks at the end of this month in San Francisco (yeah, not "Frisco" as you should know). I'm quite hyped about the trip because it's the spot where mountain biking was born (Marin County big up), and the bay area has always been interesting musically from the dreadful hippie times to the trash metal (Death Angel big up) scene, berkeley punkxx (Green Day big up)and modern hyphy movement (E-40 big up) and of course it's the the home town of our cool buddy, Buddy Leezle. And not to forget that Journey was a local group as well, and they also dedicated the song "Lights" to the foggy city.

And I also realized that I'll be there on the last friday of April. You know whut that means? I'll try to attend or at least witness the Critical Mass in the very spot where it all started. Yeah, that means lots of cyclists and cycle-enthusiasists will once again be reclaiming the streets. Well, I'm not sure if that all so positive, because it gets really violent sometimes, like when annoyed car drivers start attacking the cyclists, who strike back with their u-locks and such.But it's for a good cause. Like Jzzi just said before, we're all treehuggers here.
