BOND : 02.28

Whatchu know bout last minute announcements? Sorry for the delay kids, its been a hellacious couple of weeks. I know this means alot of you wont be attending, but thats ok. Theres always next time. Here's how shits going down tonight...

Middleschool Madness

Meet at point A, which is a grassy knoll in the Palms Middleschool yard. After the map, we walk across the street to...

The Overpass : AKA The Dark Railroad

Meet again at point A, the rear parking lot to Bank of America/IHOP.

Pics from last months run coming soon!!!
See you on the streets.

BOND : 01.31

OH shit. You thought 2009 wasn't gonna be poppin off!?

Time to break that first adrenaline soaked sweat of the new year. Exciting times lay ahead of us.

This Saturday night, we're gonna do a classic run. I can't believe its been over 6 months since we've run these maps. Completely insane to me. Lets hope you kids are down as much as I am...

First : Palms/Centinela

Meet on the corner of Walgrove and Lucille, at the schoolyard. Then we'll be crossing the street like big kids!

Second : The Gauntlet

We'll regroup at the corner of Palms and Grandview.

Third : Kingsland

As usual, were only gonna run that Kingsland IF we have enough hyped enough to play a third round. Just know that shit's on my agenda.

Bring a friend! Wear Black! See you on the streets!

Unurban 5.0

This time out with my buddy Dylan for some hippie acoustic music drawing excitement. Place was poppin off more than usual. 'Twas a full house. You may notice a crappy from memory sketch of a Locust from Gears of War. Kids all obsessed with trolls at the moment, so I tried to get in there. Buh.

STL Writing Workshop

Sometimes to get warmed up for a writing workshop, I do some drawing. Two very productive and stimulating days to start the new year (Jan 1st and 2nd) working with my friends Bryan and Jeff.

Got a good head start on a BOND related publishing project, details coming soon (maybe). Good times for all.

Unurban Cafe 3.0 and 4.0

Unurban Cafe is filled with characters and class. Their iced tea with a shot of vanilla or caramel isn't too bad either. Join me there on a Friday night sometime for open mic. We'll draw the night away!

BOND 11.28 : The Aftermath

Click the image to peep the phots! There aren't many!

I originally had some epic ideas for this aftermath post, but they are all gone. I'm convinced that 30ish is the magic number for BOND runs. Its a great amount of people, but not so many that its ultimate chaos. Thats not to say that I'll ever look down on 75+ turnouts. I'm just saying...

Everything was going smoothly and perfectly until 30 seconds before we started the first run, and the LAPD rolled up on us. Tim and I handled business as usual. The officer was reluctant to let us continue playing, but obliged, citing his concerns that we would generate a "prowler" call, or have some fresh young green police recruit drawing guns on us. He just didn't want to see anyone hurt.

As far as I know, neither of his concerns were justified that night. Both runs went smooth as ice.

In other game related news, I had one of my best nights as a driver. After we picked up a couple of guys early on, our car went on to dominate the "north manchester" run, scoring over 10 catches. David Ra (aka: chump) didnt find or catch a single person. MVP status removed. But thats enough for my personal stories of glory, you all have your own. Someone mentioned a web message board. Would you guys use it if I created one?

And a final note... don't be stupid assholes. I thought the "NO ALCOHOL" rule was for obvious reasons on the main page, but I guess it wasn't.

BOND is a sober game.

If you gotta get drunk or high, then don't come to the game. Save it for the after party or don't come at all. Our dealings with the police, and the continued success of the game hinges on the fact that we do it sober. All the police need to completely end this game is a good excuse. Linking some idiot DUI back to the game is all it will take.

Thanks. The night was great. I had a fucking blast.

11.28 BOND : Update!!!

Hope everyone out there had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I'm thankful for all of you wonderful people who run around with me at night like a bunch of hoodlums. Here's where we're playing this wonderful Friday evening...

Art Meets Religion

Usually its ok to park in the Otis Lot, but since the school is closed for the holiday the lot might not be open. If that is the case, swing over to the BACK lot of Ralphs. Theres a marker on the Google map page. Its like a block away, you'll see people at one place or the other. From there we'll move to...

North Manchester

We'll regroup at the end Church, and make a quick jog across the street for the next run.

Forecast looks clear, but perhaps a bit chilly. Be prepared for some old school shit.

See you on the streets.
