House of Boxing – Rumble on Reo II
Last Saturday, I was out on the hunt with my Quad brother as we trekked through San Diego for a new creative space. Our first stop, Paradise Hills. PH sits south of National City and according to our real estate guy Hector Padilla of Padilla Realty, there were a few bargains on his block that we might want to check out. Doing just that, it’s amazing what gems you can find... Read More
Style Fashion Week LA 2012 – FURNE ONE/Vocé Haircare

Our invite came from Amber Deylon of Vocé Haircare, as she and her partner Kaz Amor assembled a team of cutting edge stylists for the evening’s models in a showcase featuring designer Furne One.

The Freak Show 10th Year Anniversary
After a chill Saturday afternoon, I came across a flyer for a jam in Sorrento Valley paying tribute to San Diego’s The Freak Show crew. My first encounter with TFS goes back to the days of The Getdown. My first time watching these cats was a tad bit confusing. They are not your traditional break crew, but are more of an alternative crew that integrates break elements into... Read More

Arthur Yoria @ Electric Lady in OB
Years back I had found a musical home in podcastlandia. A gentleman by the name of Neil Holmann was podcasting out of Poland and filling up the podcast waves with great reviews, interviews, and some of the latest Latin tracks. I would constantly tune in to hear the latest show and gain some insight on who was hot en el mundo latino, whether it be Rock en Español, Electronica,... Read More
Fat Tuesday in the Gaslamp
Last Tuesday, we took to the streets of the Gaslamp Quarter for the 2012 Mardi Gras Festival. 5th Ave, from Broadway to down to Harbor were blocked off as the Gaslamp played host to tens of thousands of Mardi Gras beadseekers. The party consisted of multiple stages, laser beams, go-go dancers, and a west coast Mardi Gras parade that definitely gained the respect of Fat Tuesday... Read More
LA ART SHOW 2012
This past Saturday, I woke up to dark clouds, a cold wind, and the desire to not go anywhere with a plan to drive up to LA and cover an art show. My “Plan B” was to stay San Diego-side and try to be as productive as possible since my original plan of attending the LA Art Show was finished. As the Art Gods read my mind and decided to change the weather on me, I decided... Read More
Sweet & Tender Hooligans LIVE @ The Casbah
This past Saturday, I had the pleasure of attending an incredible show at the Casbah in San Diego. Being such a HUGE fan of live music and small venues this was the perfect mix…the Sweet & Tender Hooligans, The Casbah, and a tidal wave of alternative live energy building 20 years in the making. After having contacted the band’s frontman Jose “Mexican Morrissey”... Read More
