In the tradition of pretty much every JFA show known to man, I had to get a grind at the local spot before tonight's performance. The gig is at the Tempe History Museum celebrating the Dry Surf history of Arizona skateboarding exhibit with special guests Fat Gray Cat! The spot is Tempe Skate Park. Show starts at 6, entrance is free and all ages are welcome. See you there! 📸 Michael Pistrui.

I had a surprise day off from work today, so I decided to start working on a new, fun little project! I've always loved making skate 'zines, so I thought I'd whittle away on a new one while I had some surprise free time on my hands. All about ditch skating. Sounded like a really cool little project to me!

I actually got a bunch of it done today; I tend to work really fast once I get into something. Probably wrote half of it already, and found a shit-ton of photos in my archives. Originally I was gonna make it strictly black and white, old-school Xerox style... but I might make it color after all. I'm laying it out on the computer, so I can really go either way. Kinda undecided on that. Sorry! In any rate, it'll be an e-mailable PDF. Paper is still pretty expensive to print and ship around; making an e-mailable PDF is totally free, and can be sent anywhere in the world in literally seconds.

I am gonna cut-and-paste a lot of it though, with a ton of hand-drawn art and hand-drawn typefaces. I really like doing things analog, as much as I can. I'm a total dinosaur like that.

It'll be totally free for both readers and advertisers! Only rule for the advertisers is that I've gotta like and respect ya; if I do, you're in! And of course, make products that are well-suited for ditch skating. I'm not doing this for the money! Strictly for the fun of it.

If you wanna make a contribution, hit me up! I'm easy to find! That's one of the neat perks of making 'zines: making new friends all over the world. Always has been, hopefully always will be!

I'm gonna shoot for a May 31st publication date on the first issue. If you want a copy, again, hit me up!

Name: Pebbles & Weeds. After the (killer!) Dinosaur Jr. song. But also, things that you find a lot of in the bottom of ditches. Has a neat ring to it I think!

Lates! -B.

Reliving a moment from Tempe's vibrant music scene with one of its legendary shows at the Sun Club. This unforgettable night featured Sub Pop artists L7, sharing the stage with local icons Beats the Hell Out of Me and 100 Iced Animals. A defining moment for Arizona's music history! #arizonamusic #tempemusichistory #greatmusicshows @l7theband #beatsthehellouttame #100icedanimals @michaelpistrui
