So today I saw this kid wearing an Armor for Sleep shirt and it reminded me of a music video that I really used to like “My Town” by AFS was a video that really impressed 16yr old me. I just watched it again and I can definitely understand why.

Also i’m reading “The Power of Now” by Eckhart Tolle now and it’s interesting. I’m not completely head over heels for it yet, but there are some nice points.

Last night we played in indianapolis, then did a signing then went and did a signing at Denny’s in indianaopolis. Then drove to chicago where I DJed with Danny Masterson, then drove from that club to Milwaukee where we are today. Along the way my friend Melissa McNelis stowed away, and now she’s hear wondering how the hell she got to Milwaukee haha.

I promise i’ll upload some more warped photos soon, I have some great ones coming up. Some really great backstories too.

Kansas Cityyyyy. We’re officially half way across the country.

Merch Signings so serious

Storms came in and knocked the power out. We had just gotten to a hotel to shower, so it made things very interesting.

Jen got immersed in the Hotel reading area.

A Day to Remember kept the pits moving

Then it was off to Dallas for 4th of July weekend.

So where has my last week been? I don’t even know. It’s all kind of been a blur, but luckily I came to nashville a few days early to eat some Pancake Pantry go to rock shows and get back to reality.

Below is a seriously long post about the last weeks events including hipster polygamists, LARP, tiny airplanes, “my new haircut”, malibu, miami, charlotte, and nashville.

GO READ!

Every hipster partyographer owes his start to polaroids in one way or another.

Polaroid Corp. is dropping the technology it pioneered long before digital photography rendered instant film obsolete to all but a few nostalgia buffs.

Polaroid is closing factories in Massachusetts, Mexico and the Netherlands and cutting 450 jobs as the brand synonymous with instant images focuses on ventures such as a portable printer for images from cell phones and Polaroid-branded digital cameras, televisions and DVD players.

This year’s closures will leave Polaroid with 150 employees at its Concord headquarters and a site in the nearby Boston suburb of Waltham, down from peak global employment of nearly 21,000 in 1978.

The company stopped making instant cameras over the past two years.

“We’re trying to reinvent Polaroid so it lives on for the next 30 to 40 years,” Tom Beaudoin, Polaroid’s president, chief operating officer and chief financial officer, said in a phone interview Friday, after the company’s plans were reported in The Boston Globe.

Polaroid failed to embrace the digital technology that has transformed photography, instead sticking to its belief that many photographers who didn’t want to wait to get pictures developed would hold onto their old Polaroid cameras.

Global sales of traditional camera film have been dropping about 25 percent to 30 percent per year, “and I’ve got to believe instant film has been falling as fast if not faster,” said Ed Lee, a digital photography analyst at the research firm InfoTrends Inc.

“At some point in time, it had to reach the point where it was going to be uneconomical to keep producing instant film,” Lee said.

Privately held Polaroid doesn’t disclose financial details about its instant film business.

Polaroid instant film will be available in stores through next year, the company said _ after which, Lee said, Japan’s Fujifilm will be the only major maker of instant film.

Polaroid got its start making polarized sunglasses in the 1930s, and introduced its first instant camera in 1948. Film packs contained the chemicals for developing images inside the camera, and photos emerged from the camera in less than a minute.

Polaroid’s overall revenue from instant cameras, film and other products peaked in 1991 at nearly $3 billion. The company went into bankruptcy in 2001 and was bought four years later for $426 million by Minnetonka, Minn.-based consumer products company Petters Group Worldwide.

Polaroid’s newly announced job cuts include 150 positions to be eliminated over the next couple months at Massachusetts operations in Norwood and Waltham, which make large-format films for technical and industrial photography. Later this year, Polaroid will close plants employing 300 workers in the Mexican state of Queretaro and in Enschede, Netherlands.

Meanwhile, Polaroid is seeking a partner to acquire licensing rights for its instant film, in hopes that another firm will continue making the film to supply Polaroid enthusiasts.

As it seeks to gain a foothold in digital photography this year, Polaroid plans to sell an 8-ounce photo printer slightly bigger than a deck of cards that requires no ink and prints business card-sized pictures. It uses thermal printing technology from Zink Imaging Inc., founded by private investors who bought technologies from Polaroid as it was coming out of bankruptcy.

Polaroid also has its brand name on foreign-made TVs, DVD players, digital photo frames, cameras and MP3 music players. Those products generated nearly $1 billion in revenue last year for Polaroid’s parent firm, Beaudoin said.

So Rony has stepped his photog game up quite a bit with a new series of photos featuring his scantily clad friends.

So far he’s got Ryan and Sabrina’s pages up but there are gonna be a bunch more coming up soon.

Click the pictures to go to his site and to see the rest of the galleries.

Bad Kittys is at: http://bad-kittys.com/ go there now!

Vancouver was so much fun, it was really more vacation than work. I don’t normally get to travel with friends so going with Rony and Lauren made it really great.

We landed in Canada and almost didn’t get in. Rony and I were too lazy to set up work permits so explaining ronys 8 bags of photo gear wasn’t the easiest thing in the world haha.

Luckily we got in and were greeted by the lovely Lindsays and this sign

Then we got in the car and headed out to Lindsay’s where we ordered Panago, met up with Jacob, Luis, Sydney and other friends.

Then we went to the gig at “No Tofu Studio” people were dancing and gettin down (Agnes and Jax?)

These kids were dope.

Then out of nowhere the cops showed up and kicked out 60 people and made us turn the music down a bunch. This didnt deter the couv’ though, shit kept on cracking. I opened with MIA – Paper Planes shit got cracking.

In all the madness I lost my glasses, so I left kind of bummed on that but luckily the day before I left this girl found em and I went and got em.

The next day we went to Karaoke at night and as soon as the videos of Rony and I singing Shaggy “It wasn’t me” are posted on the internet, I will have lost all my cred.

On Monday we went Tobogganing and it was dope. It was like a 3 hour mission to get there, the first mountain was closed and the second one we went to was in the middle of a snowstorm so the durango was sliding all over on the way up. Anyways when we got there we all started taking out cameras and filming our selves going down. Rony was filming louis and dude slammed into him, mad funny.

That night we ended up going to the half alive Soul/Mod night and I danced with Shea the homegirl till everybody wanted to leave. We went back to lindsays and watched internet movies until we all blacked out. I turned out the light in my room, and it turned back on in like 3 minutes which was some bizzarre poltergeist shit. Shea and I totally freaked lindsay in the morning when we told her cuz I guess she’s always thought there were ghosts.

Shea and I pre poltergeist experience.

After the ghost cloned shea and ateme.

Anyways tonight is Kristin Cavalarri’s bday @ stonerose come hang with me.
