Behind-the-scenes photos from the Back To The Future set
Back To The Future, and its star Michael J Fox, would have to be one of the most iconic moments in 80s history. Killer movie, full of that naive optimistic escapism that characterised the 80s generation. These behind the scenes photos that ran on the Lime Is Better blog reveal some of the tricks behind the direction and set design, which seemed so futuristic at the time. Read more
Brilliant black and grey tattooing by James Spencer Briggs
Oh man. There are tattoos, and then there are Tattoos, if you know what I mean. And LA-based James Spencer Briggs practically defines the latter. His black and grey tattoo art is just stunning: a dramatic wash of neo-rennaissance themes with deft surrealist elements, all impeccibly designed and done with exemplary taste. If only he made a quick trip to Austin, I’d have him ink me up in a heartbeat. Hint, hint. Read more
New York car space being sold for 1 million dollars
Only in New York? We think so, though those in Tokyo may disagree. According to that reputable news source, the UK’s Daily Mail, a ‘developer of a luxury condo building in New York City’s Greenwich Village has listed a parking spot for $1 million’. That’s right. And the spot only holds one car, measuring in at an underwhelming 12 feet by 23 feet. So is it even semi-reasonable to ask this much? The New York Post thinks not. They’ve determined that ‘driver would have to rack up a $115 illegal parking ticket every day for 24 years before reaching the cost of this luxury garage’. Ah, the joys of deep pockets.

There’s a world-weariness about Two Gallants frontman Adam Stephens. It reveals itself in the Tom Waits-like raspiness that permeates his gin house drawl and in the talkin’ blues narratives that he weaves around his simple acoustic fingerpicking. They are the new superstars of the West Coast scene, majestic showmen in homespun rags.
Listen to the Two Gallants track, The hand that held you down.

These vintage-looking posters are awesome. Great uses integrating social media with WWII slogans and posters. Some even look faded – that’s totally awesome!
