We just got in to Hartford, Connecticut this morning. Beautiful city… home to Yale
This school is crazy, it makes you feel like you are attending school at Hogwarts, from Harry Potter. Everything is made of stone and castle themed.
Everyone knows that the infamous Skull and Bone secret society resides here at Yale. So we had to go find the Skull and Bone tomb. It felt like we were in a scene from the da vinci code. The “Tomb,” as they call it, is the only building not owned by the university and it has no signs, address or anything… Super eerie
Other than creepy buildings, this town is real legit. Great college area and they even have the sickest mail boxes… check it out:
And then there is this…
It all makes sense…
Top school in the Nation, extremely intelligent students and star wars fans. We wouldn’t be surprised if everyone here had a World of War Craft account.
Tragically, one of our good friends passed away this week. Brian Fyfe was a stand-up guy with a heart of gold. He was great friend and will be missed. Please say a prayer for him and his family.
Rest in Peace
Brian Fyfe

Yesterday we dropped by De La Barracuda in Hollywood. Miguel De La Barracuda was displaying his latest line and invited Justice to perform at the event. He even brought by homeless Jesus to kick it at the party…
+ Justice +
Xavier on the tables
And then there was this guy…
hahah our boy Step got in a few shots with the wannabe-Jesus
Don’t really know what was going on here..
Yes, you just witnessed Jesus fist-pumping
The AP Magazine tour has been an interesting journey, but one thing on these tours that we always have to deal with is trying to position three tour buses around a venue. It’s always a battle to see who can get the best spot. So far our bus has been the earliest to arrive about half the time.
The trick is to make the least pit stops as possible. Try coordinating filling up gasoline, getting food, getting souvenirs and getting 12 people to use the bathroom all in one stop…. It’s not easy. This is why you need to find yourself a Flying J’s. They have it all in one convenient stop.
As you can imagine, we aren’t always the best at coordinating the ideal pit stop, but we manage. As far as the competition, we would have to say that the runner-up goes to the AP Mag tour bus. John, the guy who drives is a champ and the wrap job on the bus is pretty sick.
I’d like to say we’re all winners… but I think it’s obvious we take the cake on this on.
As you all know, we are currently on the AP Magazine tour with The Cab. The tour has been killing it so far, but there is one thing that happens on all tours that not many people know about…
We like to call it ,”Fan Spam.” This is when obsessive fans create artwork, makeshift gifts, jewelry and/or foods. Don’t get us wrong, bringing a band a gift is a kind gesture, but you have to admit that it can get a little creepy. Let’s take exhibit “A” for example:
This super fan hand-made “The Cab” lollipops. They look like the band members…. I mean, if there was a line that shouldn’t be crossed… this person just dove right over.
And then there is exhibit “B,” that feels they need to bake the band food. This is called “Fan Food” and it is way too risky to eat. God knows what could be inside. Lets be honest… would you eat a random piece of cake that a complete stranger hands you?
Didn’t think so.
Although the Fan Spam gets a little wild at times, what would the world be like without it? It makes for good conversation pieces and entertainment. So keep it coming and if you get real creative, it just may be featured in a blog =)
Just got in to Florida. it’s Sunday Funday and everyone knows that Florida is famous for three things: Beaches, Bikinis, and Gators. So we found all of the above…
….well…. we almost found a real gator. A freeze-dried head works just as well.
Before we hit the waves, we reviewed the rules and regs
ok, so we didn’t really hit the beach, but if we did, we would probably look like Jason. We aren’t coordinated enough to surf.
Next stop, Guido Beach!
If you’ve never seen the show, “Pretty Wild!”, don’t feel bad… it’s just another hot-chick reality series from E! The show is a disturbing portrayal of three, wannabe-Playboy/actress, sisters that run around Hollywood creating drama…. We love it.
On the most recent episode, our boys from Wicker were featured on the show sporting HK Army. These are some stand-up, talented guys. Check them out at MySpace.com/WickerBand or watch them on “Pretty Wild!”
This quick video clip is of the girls meeting up with the guys at their Hollywood show. Keep an eye out for the Wicker boys and be sure to check out next weeks blog featuring them in our upcoming photo shoot.
