It’s no secret that Dimitry has a problem with sweat. He can be sitting in an air conditioned office and his nose will still be beaded with perspiration. It’s just part of who he is, and I’d actually be more worried for his personal well being if his internal cooling system wasn’t running at full steam all hours of the day. What’s lesser known about Dimitry, though, is that he’s always dreamed of appearing in a large orchestrated dance number. (more…)

Eddie Barbanell finds a different way to amaze every time I am in his presence. This time it came on the set of Rob Dyrdek’s new show called the Fantasy Factory. (more…)

On his cross-country move out west in 2001, Steve-O made a series of filming stops along the way in Louisiana and New Mexico. Sticking to what we stereotypically know best, we threw Steve-O into a random voodoo situation in New Orleans without really knowing what the hell was going to happen. (more…)

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, my thoughts always turn to darkness and evil at this time of year. Because this is when we hold our annual Black Metal Thanksgiving in Portland, Oregon. We descend upon some poor soul’s dark castle, put on the corpse paint, and make Thanksgiving dinner while Hailing Satan and listening to the worst black metal possible. It’s a good time. Although I probably shouldn’t say “annual” because we actually have it every other year. Although, if I say it’s annually, then I’m lying. And lying is very evil. So, yeah, we have Black Metal Thanksgiving every year. (more…)

Through some trippy coincidence, today is not only November 17 but there’s a terrorist organization that popularly goes by the name 17 November. It’s a Greek deal, apparently, and as such it’s probably not all too dissimilar from the domestic terror groups we have here in the United States known as fraternities. (more…)

Last week, Rick Kosick and I stopped by Podium Distribution to interview its VP, Tim Gavin, for our forthcoming Big Brother magazine retrospective. A former professional skateboarder on the Blind team while the magazine was still under Steve Rocco’s ownership, Tim was frequently hanging out around the office and he was almost always down for obliging our goofy requests. He was no dummy: publicity back then directly correlated to board sales (which wasn’t exactly a bad thing considering the industry was no bigger than the famously diminutive penis of G.G. Allin at the time), and he couldn’t have asked for a better promotional opportunity than when the idea for Issue #6 came along. (more…)

Part 7 of the jackassworld road trip, in which our fear-facing fellowship—Wee Man, Chris Pontius, Danger Ehren, Preston Lacy, Dave England, Mike Kassak, Loomis Fall, JxPx Blackmon, Scott Manning, Dimitry Elyashkevich, Mike G., Rick Kosick, and Sean Cliver—make a diversionary stop at the “Lost Boys” bridge in Santa Cruz, California. Here, hands shake, iPods drop, and a gutterpunk serenades, as tension mounts among the cast. (more…)
