More 2nd Party Trifecta pics

Here’s some more Lincoln City Trifecta pictures from Colin Walsh. What’s going on in that dumpster? The skull candy dudes put a post up somewhere claiming there were goodies in the trash, one person jumped in and scored some headphones, seconds latter every child under the age of 15 was knee deep in everyones trash hunting for goodies, some kid even got a complete out of the trash, some left with prizes others were not as lucky and probably contracted HEP C. Thanks again to Colin Walsh. Check out the pics after the jump.

Second party Trifecta coverage

I wasn’t able to make it to the Trifecata this year for the first time in… holy cow, I was there for seven years in a row. So not a bad run, yet I still felt guilty. Fortunately, the Trifecta somehow managed to go on without me, and Colin Walsh (Rules) was there in Lincoln City with his camera and sent some pictures in. If you want third pary trifecta coverage, EPM is doling out now. This is part one of the installment, more to come. Thanks Colin.

Friday T&A on S&A: Inactive imagination

Screw these Feeder guys. First off, their name too close to legendary punk band the Feederz. Remember the album Ever Feel Like Killing Your Boss? It was black with sandpaper glued to the outside cover so it would deface any other albums you put it next to. OK, strike one, your band name is too close to another infamous band. Strike two, you choose to make an album cover with a picture that is already a direct copy of another album cover. The cover of Feeder’s album Renegades is Basilio SIlva photo that was obviously copied from the Dwarves. The Feeders made a video with a topless girl in a ski mask. As much as I can appreciate a topless girl (spring break!) I’m predisposed to hate this. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip.

Skate and Annoy tattoo

I gotta believe this is coincidence. I’d love to claim inspiration, but I would think if someone got the idea from our zine they would have let us know. This was found in the mugshot section of the Smoking Gun. Don’t get any ideas, an S&A tattoo will get you absolutely nothing but my eternal bewilderment. – Thanks to Ben Reese for the tip.

Visit Texas Style Skateboarding and check out the trailers for Texas Style Two which seems to feature every notable Texan from back in the day as well as everyone who travelled through it.

No ideas again, huh?

At least I got in the pun about the revert.

Yahoo advert spotted in the wild

I snapped this photo out the window of my car on the same day I saw another one on a bus bench on my way to work too. This one is a half a mile from Conahan’s house. Before now, I had only seen this image online.

Weiner on Call

Today’s guest on Callin on Colin is Howard Weiner, owner of one of the longest running skateshops on the West Coast, if not the entire world, Portland’s Cal Skates. Howard has been a fixture in Portland politics for a long time. The picture (above left) is Howard marching on City Hall in 1970. You might recall he briefly ran for Portland City Council. Howard might be the first actual adult that Colin has interviewed. Tune in live via the interwebs at 2pm Pacific, or download the show a couple hours later.

Former Breeder sings about skateboards

Kelley Deal from The Breeders and Kristian Svitak sing a jingle for Landshark wheels. There was a cool band in Illinois circa 82-83 called the Breeders. They had (among other things) some really good songs like Zen Punk and Uncool Slamming. You can download mp3’s of their 7″ with the band’s blessing from this article on Maximum Rock and Roll.
