Snowboard Mag has an amazing announcement to share.

We find it hard to believe it is already August. Wow. 2/3 of that summer down, 1/3 to go. Well, about 21 days to go, to be precise. We’re pushing off on the 21st to get our asses back to Minneapolis to see some Flaming Lips action at the State Fair. So good. Got some friends working on some shit involving the finer details of that show, so, it could be a great one.

June and July whipped on by. Chalk it up to keeping really busy, with “eyes on the prize,” fighting each day like it’s our last as we gear up to hit the road in three weeks. Less than a month. We like the sound of that.

Brad is coming into town today to do the final edit on the athlete photography. We’re gonna slay that shit, and then celebrate the milestone with some sort of ethnic meal around town. Maybe something involving chutney or cous cous.

Here’s an outtake from last Friday, snapped somewhere in Ballard, up there in Seattle. Brad and I. Photo courtesy of Embry Rucker.

Matt Kasshole got back into town. The place has been too quiet. Good to have you back on Oregon soil.

Listened to the whole Califone discography last night as the night got late. Clanky hauntings.
