Sky Ferreira: Hurricane Lolita
By Rob Brink
Missbehave Autumn 2008

Prior to meeting 16-year-old Sky Ferreira in her hometown of LA, I mentally envision a sketchy Roman Polanski-esque aftermath to our first encounter. The V-card-holding model and soon-to-be-pop star chills in LA clubs that I can’t even get into. She can hold engaging conversations with people twice her age. She’s gospel-trained with the same vocal range as Mariah Carey and prefers Sarah Brightman to Cat Power. What’s not to desire? It’s practically a setup for “Catch a Predator.”

Boosh vs. Social Distortion!

September 7, 2008

Last Thursday at the Converse ASR party, Boosh took out Jonny Wickersham, the guitarist from Social Distortion, with a full can of Newcastle. An action that, moments later, resulted in a full-throttle attack from Jonny himself, six bouncers and two soundboard guys. Amazingly, no Booshes were actually harmed in the making of this video, they were only removed from the House of Blues and suffered confiscation of two beanies. Epicness...

Then I learned that Malto is heavy into iPhone Sudoku now... even while standing on line in Starbucks. What a day full of surprises and revelations! I don't know if I can take it.

Love is in the air...

August 19, 2008

I'm in NJ/NY at the moment, tryin' to skate, but everyone's all luvvy duvvy 'n shit. Cupcakin' it. Jesus.

Just moments after ripping Manny Mania all day, Dennis is papoosing one of the world's cutest babies... his.

Then, I'm trying to skate some flatground with Tim and his wife shows up and cockblocks me. Then we run into Stefan and he's out buying sheets and comforters with his lady... all domesticated and shit.

I'm the perpetual fifth wheel these days. Tim's even onto girly drinks with colorful umbrellas in 'em!
