OOUUTT!!
If you remember, back in
July I was in Utah @ Bo Huff Customs for "Alpine Edge Films"
while they did a film shoot on Bo Huff for a series on "custom culture"...since then Bo HAS been inducted into the Hot Rod Hall of Fame... WELL I got news this morning via email from Michael Smith @ Alpine that he was in post-production on the project. We all met last month in Vegas for a "reunion" and to get a little more footage...Mike informed me that he had some new stuff on the promo site--- so I checked it out, and it's looking really KOOL! So have a look if you're a little curious~~pretty neat!
here's the link to get the
full "skinny"

The leaves are changing here, but
they had nothing on the “hot rod foliage” that was happening
inside the 75 acre compound @ the NSRA N.E. Nationals, held at the
Champlain Valley Exposition Center.
With over 1300 Hot Rods in attendance, it was by far the biggest show I had been to this year.
Friday was clear, but it rained on
Saturday, and Sunday.
New England “Rodders” know the season is short up here for Hot Rodding,
so they all held strong, and kept the rain wiped from the chrome.
A great time was had by all, myself included!

The
show was fantastik! Did many live drawings, and took so many fotoz that
my camera wanted to cry.
Ran into “Creepy Crawler” , a car that I drew for
“Kustoms Illustrated” back in April..
let me tell-U that is one bad-ass car in person! And I’m always running
into Charlie “Bandit”
usually seeing only the back of his head…’cause his attention is always
on a car pulling killer lines!
Love watching that kat stripe!
There were well over 1000 cars that attended, and so much drool on the
midway from the thousands of spectators, that I had to watch my step.
My Mapquest direktions told me it was 180 plus miles one-way to get
there…
and it WAS WORTH EVERY MILE!

Back from Utah, had a blast…it was f’n crazzzzy. The cameras rolled, the bands ZOOOOOOOMED.
When the motorcycle tank was done, I had 17 hours, and 107 shades of different kolors into the project.
While I was there, I wanted to take it all in and not miss a second of
it.
SO I set up camp in the junk-yard out back behind Bo’s museum.
Pretty neat to fall asleep under the Utah sky. It was way hot, and way
dry..
took a little bit for this Vermont blood to get established to the
climate.
The Rockabilly models were gorgeous to put it mildly….snicker---don’t
make ‘em like that back east…
at least I never saw girls that looked like that (especially Jazzy
B.----hello Jazz ).
I
left with a shirt loaded with autographs from all of my newly made
friends…
VERY KOOL…and promises to “keep in touch”
I
will attend the show next year.. and spin out another piece of
artwork…btw,
I kept my promise from the previous “kool nuze” article…I left behind
one SICK piece of “pin-up” art on that bike tank…
Scottie keeps his promises. Want to see a glimpse of what was goin’ on out there?….hit this site, and see it alllllll. www.alpineedgefilmsbohuffcustoms.tv
Still lots of editing to do from this past weekend…but that should be up
in the next few months.
And then you can see me all overtired trying to do an
interview…laugh---I got NO sleep…arg.
Peace-OUT
s.
Headed to Utah, East Carbon to be
exact. I was invited out by Bo Huff, of “Bo Huff Customs”
to attend his annual show…but also, to get some work done..
I will be at his hot rod shop doing a
piece of “pin-up” artwork on one of his motorcycle tanks….While
I am there, ALPINE EDGE FILMS
will also
be in attendance doing a shoot on “custom culture”. Bo has
invited anyone who is a
“somebody”
..ie: editors, rockabilly models, photographers, etc. to attend
the show..
Every year he puts on a 4 day party..he opens up his shop, and
museum
(yea’ he has a car museum, doesn’t everyone?…snicker).
--It will be 5 Days, and 4 nights of bands, hot rods,
break-stands, hood rats, booze, Rockabilly
…and crazy acts of human nature….we call that being a “freak” on
the east coast…
don’t know what they call it in East Carbon?….
He does everything BIG TIME---I am
stoked to say the least, just to be a part of it!..
and I promise to try and get some sleep while I am there…I also
plan to leave behind one killer
mural on that motorcycle tank! Zooooooooooooooom………
“Rod-On!”

It was awesome at the LACONIA NATIONALS!
I planned on going ONLY as a spectator, but I did bring my clip-board, pencils, and portfolio…(snicker…)
So I wasn’t sad when I was asked to
do a few live sketches (always need gas $$, right?) with Coppertone
slathered all over me,
pencils sharp, and an eraser that’s EVER ready…. I was ready to
ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!---
Met a REAL KOOL KAT that went
to the same sign school that I went to, and we hit it off like we had
always known each other.
He was at the show pinstriping… …”Charlie”…aka…“Bandit!”
……he threw down some killer lines…it even made my left hand quiver
just watching…Instinct told me 2 scoop a brush out of his paint box,
drop it in the 1-shot, and let it FLY! But I digressed,
and just enjoyed watching him lay down his own style. There were lots
of old friends to see… and lots of firm handshakes…
With 400 plus rides of every breed,
and era, with NO “trailer queens”….(gotta’ love that)…it was just
like being in hot-rod heaven!
Rodders’ R -COOL!
Peace-
