i wish god were alive to see this

I Fall To Pieces.

A mysterious spanish speaking man and Juan Vigoda.

David learns about the one thing better than a sandwich.

And then, BOOSH! The juggernaut known as Small Breed took the floor.

There was a fair amount of macho energy going around the room.

But this wonderful dancing man covered in white powder equalized the room. Look at him go!

Also, Small Breed recorded. Go to their Myspace. Learn it and love it before it ends in a fiery crash!

Another One Bites The Dust.

What? Did you think we wanted to be DJ's? To have a DJ night for years on end? It is simply not so. It has been a very fun few months, and the Cha Cha has been super gracious to host us. Come this Wednesday for the final installment of White Doggie, and help kiss it goodbye in high style. The Doggie is dead, long live the Doggie.

In An Expanding Universe.

Jessica is in town taking care of her Father, and Aaron was home for about 22 hours. We went over to the gallery.

Have you come by and seen the show yet? Wednesday through Sunday, Noon-ish to five-ish, you really ought to see it.

Aaron cursing the day I was born, Jessica noticing I am there for the first time.

The arrival of Sir DSS.

And later on, at dinner, Stefani reads our astrology charts.

Let's Get Started.

My friends Azazel Jacobs and Sara Diaz made this film, and my brother Nick made the music. It's filmed in Echo Park, and I think it's a pretty accurate picture of what it's like to live here.

Songs From A Room.

Jenna and I have been moving into our new house.

The sun room, soon to have easels in it.

It's been vacant for 10 years.

Mantle envy?

Understandable.

How And Why Are Idle Questions.

The Hamburger Eyes show was incredible.

Setting up merch.

West Coast Collision.

This is The Man, Ray Potes. One of the most important pieces of the Hamburger Eyes puzzle, and a top notch fellow to boot. And what's that sitting in front of him? Oh, hot off the presses, the new issue of H.E.!

Merch list included 'Black Lavender Cakes'.

Trips To Saturn.

Did you get your free Dustward poster?

Robert and Ray sitting outside and awaiting the masses. Also, let me take a moment here to announce that it is with great pleasure that I tell you that Robert is now the official manager of the Hope Gallery. How lucky are we?

This is a picture of beer.

Kate Hall came and set up her vegan hotdog stand!

Piscitelli took the trip to Saturn.

Hamburgler Stefan Simikich and Liz Rice from RVCA.

The bad guys.

Baby Brother got a new jacket.

Roy, Bryan and Robert the gallery manager.

Writhing silkworms.

Wild times at the dogge shoppe.

This is a picture of a family.

It was a wild night, and an overwhelming honor to host Hamburger Eyes. Thank you to them and to everyone who came. If you missed the opening, please come by the gallery and check it out. The show is up for a month, and we are open Wednesday thru Sunday, 12-5.

My night ended at a talent show in a living room.

And I'll Steal Every Moment.

These pictures are from a roll of film I processed this week.

Now That I Have A Voice What Will I Say?

The early bird catches the 2nd ever Small Breed show.

"This is our last show in a non-stadium venue."

And Robert is back from his Pacific Northwest journey, stronger than ever.

Small Breed: Let the aggresive label courting begin! As soon as they finished we had to boogie over to Cha Cha for White Doggie.

And were greeted by Camille in her special suprise homemade White Dog shirt!

And then Aaron walked in wearing his custom White Dog birthday shirt! Oh I was feeling almost too good looking at them. Listen, people of Earth, if you want a White Dog shirt all you need is a Sharpie and a favorite white tee. Make it and take a picture of yourself in it and send me the pic. Go on, make my day!

Kevin is guarding David Kramer's beer.

Mods vs. Rockers.

Randy left the next morning for more endless tour.

Grace infinity, Grace forever.

Trusty.

And a son returns home from war to his mother.
