Higher State Of Graceland

Josh Wink - Higher State Of Consciousness 



Dug up this classic acid house track. It brings back fun memories of one of Vancouver's most iconic nightclubs of the late 80's to mid 90's, Graceland, when clubbing was still about the music, and dancing, and having fun! No poppin' bottles, no table service, no attitude, and no judgement.
LB, I forgot her name, but I remember that cute Asian girl that worked there as a dancer that you kinda always had something with. NY, remember the (gay?) bartender that had you on the permanent guest list? DC and NY, do you remember the time we went to go see the KLF the night before our final exams? Haha. Good times..
R.I.P. Graceland
You will live on in our happy memories here.

Destroy To Create

Went to the Nike 'Destroy to Create' event last night, to celebrate the legacy of the Destroyer jacket and preview this coming season's campaign.


In typical Nike fashion, they did a nice set up. Flew in Gildas from Kitsune to do the music. Stuff got 'destroyed'. "Hey drunk people! Here's a sledgehammer! Smash sh*t up!" There's always a few laughs to be had with that.


It was a fun event. More on it here.

Stripped

Say it ain't so! A downtown Vancouver institution, The Cecil was home to one of the city's most legendary strip clubs (and the food wasn't bad either). The landmark 101 year old hotel, prior to being a "peeler bar" (yes, this is what Canadians call strip clubs), was the gathering place for many writers, artists, poets, musicians, and environmentalists back in the day. It is scheduled to be demolished as part of a larger neighbourhood redevelopment. Many entertaining Friday nights were had here with the boys during our college days. If I close my eyes, I can still smell the stale beer and cigarette smoke lingering in the air, and hear the chants of "Shower! Shower!" echoing off the walls, while the DJ asks, "Who wants to see one more dance?" I do...

Drive

"Each night when I return the cab to the garage, I have to clean the cum off the back seat. Some nights, I clean off the blood."
- Travis Bickle in Taxi Driver (1979)
