I'm actually quite excited to watch this as:

a) I'm a rev head and

I'll be heading down to Greater Union Cinemas on George Street (Sydney) on Wednesday to watch it. If you're in the area and want to watch, drop me a line and come past!

Thanks again to Circuit Club for the hook up! Be sure to check out their site for the Events as they throw up a monthly track day which is great if you want to race your car in safe environment where you might learn a thing or too!

Fresh Threads...

So I cleared myself of debt the other day (yay me!) ... so what's the best thing to do? Go shopping! hahaha

Over the last week I had accquired the following items (oh dear lord help me hahaha) ...



New Era Filo Flag Cap - From a friend who brought it back from the Philippines I imagine ...


A-Life T-shirt: Please Try To Keep up - Footage on Oxford Street


Bear Bond T-shirt - From Robby Ingam Store (OxfordStreet as well)



The Hundreds T-Shirt: Emblem - From Nitrogen on George Street (word up to JimBoi for the hookup!)

I was looking for fresh and colourful as I usually get clothes consisting of flat colours. The bear bond t-shirt was an instant WIN for me cos it's hella fresh (and giving you the finger! lol).

Anywhoo...thought I should post that before it go too long away. Gotta get back to studying!

Cover videos on YouTube

This is just an announcement to any of my buddies that do covers n such on youtube ... I'll let David Choi explain...




So just a brief overview ... warner brothers (WB) haven't struck a deal with youtube (YT) in regards to posting videos of covers on YT as WB want to get paid (rightfully so, they have the rights)for any covers posted as YT make money off them (with the ads). As YT don't want to get in trouble for this, they're going about removing videos with WB content the best way they can (suspending accounts). To avoid your account being suspended, hide or delete your vids with WB content on them.

This has been a nutHour public service announcement. Regular programming will resume shortly..

LOL in a can!


So much awesome in this can I just had to buy it! LOL

Haven't tried it yet but i'll let you know how it tastes! LOL

Laters! LOL

Added 18/03/2009

Ok so I tried it today, albeit a little warm and it's not too bad! Doesn't have that sharp taste most energy drinks posses, but in this instance a prominent mango flavour. Very reminiscent of those poppa/tetra packs of juice you used to drink back in the 90's ('Just Juice' anyone?).

Would I drink again? Not sure because when it comes to energy drinks, I must admit I'm a brand whore and would choose Red Bull over anything else on the market (will drink Rockstar on occassion too).

I do love the can design though ... so i'll be keeping it on display till I tire of it :P

Can't remember the price but if I recall correctly it would only be in the $3 range (I purchased it from 7-11 in the city so prices are mad jacked anyway) but I imagine it'd be in the same price range as all energy drinks available.

The n[2]s crew

So ... first port of call.

Anyone thats been around myself for the last 5 months or so would know that a few friends of mine have started off an all night jam session called n[2]s. Basically, it stands for night to sunrise and it basically comprises of us dancing from around 9pm Satuday night till 5am Sunday morning. We have been running these jam sessions since October 25 2008 and have plenty more in store!!!

The core crew that comprises of myself with friends, Chris, Ralph, and Jimboi have, with our mutual love for hip hop dance, brought together a jam session with a difference. Basically the time frame puts a barrier up straight away for those not fully into it. You have to want to be there to want to dance from night to sunrise, with no alcohol or pingers. Just straight up passion and love for dance driving you through the wee hours of the morning. We also all specialise in various styles, from hip hop, pop, lock, break and krump, and even though we train in all styles, we ensure to focus on foundation work.

Our aim is to encourage and nurture good talent and good people into progressing/leveling up in the scene. Understanding there is more to dance than the money and the fame (although they're good too), but that and understanding and respecting your chosen craft is in quite important.

So yeah, that's a little insight into one aspect that's been taking up my time (the most of time anyway!). We have a few interesting things coming up with n[2]s so stay tuned. Can't drop any details as yet...but we're all pretty excited over here! hehehe

In the mean time, feel free to check out our n[2]s blog in the left pane or visit n2sjams.wordpress.com, which just outlines how the jam session went, when the next one is coming along and any other related news. If you want to subscribe to our mailing list, email us at n2s.crew@gmail.com and we'll gladly add you where you'll get updates on the next session or event we'll be attending.

Keep on jamming people!

-Peace
