photo of the day

So I ran into old friend Scott Potasnik the other day in the cheese section of the supermarket. Potasnik was a Production Coordinator on the jackass television show and Tremaine and I always admired him for his amazing ability to repulse almost everyone he came in contact with. He was almost as big a dick as Jeff, which is why I think Tremaine respected him. (more…)

a (mail) call to arms, by mike g.

For the handful of you who might actually be wondering why there haven’t been very many new installments of the jackassworld mail lately, the dip is directly proportionate to the decline in viewer mail that has graced our postal box recently. Fortunately for you, I have had time to sit around and hypothesize about the decline since there hasn’t been anything to open and have concocted a few theories. (more…)

art review – marc canter, by lauren graham

I am a massive Guns N’ Roses fan. Seriously, its almost becoming a problem. I listen to Appetite For Destruction almost every day. It never gets old. I even went as Slash for Halloween, but I got super wasted and lost my top hat. Slash would have been so bummed on me. (Sorry, Slash.) So, when I read Slash’s book, I came across Marc Canter’s book Reckless Road. It’s the best documentation of a band’s early days I have ever seen. Marc grew up with Slash and documented all of his bands until Guns N’ Roses and shot of all their Club Shows in Hollywood and the Sunset Strip in the ’80s. It’s basically the closest you’ll ever get to seeing one of those shows if you weren’t there. There’s even an online part of the book, which you can access once you purchase it, where you can hear audio from the shows and some interviews, too. Not to mention prints of some of the best pictures. (more…)
