So this Thursday marks the final episode of ER,good lord has it really been 14 years since that show first turned George Clooney from Mrs. Garret's "handyman" into a Doctor damn time flies.Anyways I just thought since ER had become such a major part of TV for like half my life it was worth looking back and maybe even watching the finale.

Look at that sexy mug Launchy getting his one legged track stand on,look for him starring in the next bootleg sessions.

Our boy Seth will be heading back down to Cali to raise them seeds,and before he leaves he wants to party with you all one last time so come on out to the WarRoom tonight I mean look at that fucking DJ roster alone.

Tomorrow Goods will be having it's grand opening in Bellevue for the East Side Chapter Store.If your in the area or if you wanna just make the trip there will be a few surprises from Nike and the Stussy EastSide Chapter tee will be dropping as well hope to see you there.

One of the few new brands that I'm exited about lately is called Gods Prey,it's the brain child of Sean Reveron (RockersNYC) and Megan McRae and the tees look great amazing colors and even better print jobs really pushing the limit.(send a few to Goods for me brother please!!!)Sean has been in the music scene a looooooong time and knows what he's talking about so when he puts out a mix tape chances are it'll blow your fucking mind a this is no exception.Download it here and be sure to check out the web site here to see the up and coming Fall season.

Over the last 4 days I have felt like this guy ,thank god it's over I think.

Here are a few pieces from the new S/S collection from Goods,we just got the stuff shot and styled this weekend which you can check out here. My personal favs are the Ox Red Heather Zip,the Canyon Creek Military Oxford and the Salton Chambray Shorts.The collection is still small but almost every piece works it's simple and clean with attention to great materials.Over all Goods continues to help make Seattle a better looking place and that's always a good thing.

I am so glad that the government is taxing the shit outta these fucking "legal criminals" this shit is so backwards,about time that's all I gotta say.

William Blake.

Actual Pain has just dropped there new Spring line called "Wild Life" and it looks great.You can see the whole line here or go to the Winner's Circle and help support an independent business in this tough time.TJ continues to kill shit with this latest installment of tees and to help keep Seattle on the rise.Also rumor is AP might be giving the FanKULT an outlet for the world to see his work,only time will tell you've been warned.

First off let me say that it is an honor to be doing the album art for any band let alone one that you actually respect and Trash Talk definitely have my respect.So here's your first look at the front half of the new Trash Talk 7" record "East Of Eden/Son Of A Bitch".The record will feature vocals from punk legend Keith Morris (Circle Jerks,Black Flag,Midget Handjob) will be pressed on three different colors of vinyl and each color record will come with it's own insert done by FaNKULT special for TT.Marching atop the rubble left behind by their last crushing release, Trash Talk plows methodically ahead with their latest offering slated to be their 7th release, the already highly anticipated single chronicles an underground race's furious return to Earth's surface and their discovery that a New Eden has grown in its place. Too prideful to return to the depths, the army confronts and corrupts this Eden's inhabitants, returning Earth to its previous state of chaos.The album is available for Pre-Sale here (don't sleep they will go quick) and you will be able to stream today on there web site as well.

"BLACK MOUNTAIN"

DETAIL

"EYES SCULPT YOU"

DETAIL

The best part was that after his little leisurely lay down screaming session in front of the store,he then walked in while my back was turned came right up on me and mumbled some of the most mutaded jargon I've ever heard a human utter god you gotta love Pike St.I then politley asked him to leave and gave him directions to the Winner's Circle he said he had a black card.

The world lost one of the good ones this weekend,the Pubs wants to send our condolences to all his friends and family in this tough time.Fame was one hell of a nice guy from the moment you met him you could just tell he was a genuine human,who really cared about people.I wish I could read just one more of his smartass comments on Publik Hair,Jake Rotman Koenen you will be missed buddy.

Look closely at the first video,can you believe this guy actually lived after that shit he got so mushed.

"EVEN THE JESTER CRIES SOMETIMES." FaNKULT 2009.

"This guy "Doug Valdez" obviously didn't know his name was attached to his fake email address when he sent this hate mail. I never had a problem with him but everybody else hated his guts because he was a cookie cutter competitive kook that was sponsored by a bikini shop. Anyway, now he proved himself to me and now I'm going to blast his letter to Manik out to everyone."

Enjoy

"Way to make a shirt with Japan thrasher, you guys couldn't be more original could you. You guys are the reason why I hate Seattle. I don't dislike it cause of the weather I dislike it because you guys make it so bad of a scene. Marshall and some manik guys are so into themselves. Mikey Burton is a kook as well who has no respect for other people around him when they try to say hi. Manik wouldn't be anything without Josh Anderson and Jordan Sanchez. Wait till they blow up and leave the "manik family" you'll have nothing but scrubs left on the team. Be more original and support skating for skating not the fashion sense. Make shirts and decks that aren't limited edition stupid art work. Support the scene by making your prices not as high. I've been to haight and ashbury, you have the same shit ftc, stussy and other shops have there. Just support the kids around Seattle by respecting them when your around and not being dicks just cause you started out making decks and doing demo's at local parks. Not everyone will wear Nike's to skate."

Ed.Note I really don't know much about this in all honesty but if Marshall say's your a "KOOK" well then my friend you are a "KOOK" and Doug Valdez Seattle feels the same way about you too bro.

We all know the real MOTW is "Watchmen" that being said if your a cheapskate like me and don't want to cough up the 12 bucks or whatever the theaters are charging these days to sit in the dark,you should check out "Ashes Of Time Redux" by Wong Kar Wai.This is not one of those "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" type of Kung Fu flicks with people flying everywhere and unrealistic fight scenes or is it a Jackie Chan slapstick style film,this film is a more mature pure cinematic experience.There is some wonderful sword play and fight scenes but that is not where this films strong points stand.It's in the cinematography using different styles of filming and editing many of which are blurred on purpose which when combined with the colors of the desert really give some great dream like scenes throughout the movie.I can't give it a 10 because at times it's a little hard to follow but that's part of the appeal,so get lost in the "Ashes Of Time" soon it'll be worth it oh yeah and Yo-Yo Ma did the soundtrack what.

Well I know most readers of the Pubs doesn't give two shits about anything biking related so I try and keep it to a minimum,but I've been a Phil wood fan for damn near 20 years and when I saw these bad boys I just had to post it.Phil Wood will be making only 100 pairs of these 3.5" flanged hub in 7 different colors (gold already sold out and it's actually gold plated not anodized) for their 38th anniversary and only a handful of shops in the country will be getting them on April 1st.The spacing is 120mm and the will be available in 32 or 36 hole single fixed only.They will be laser etched with a serial number signifying it's number in the limited run and color and also a dog tag with the designer and builders names laser etched.I don't know what they will cost and how I will get a pair but I need a pair of the silver joints BAAAAAAAAAAD!!!

Get it in!

My parents really lied to me cuz I was thinking something completely different.

Damn this could really be alot of fun tonight I hope people get in to it and go all out with the outfits and shit,and I would love to see some OG decks that people have held onto.Plus Manik's own Steve "Needle Nose" Klotz will be DJing the event so you know it will get slimey break out your ProtoType 540's and Vision Street Wear tee shirt and jump ramp your ass to InnerSpace tonight for a blast from the past.

It's not like I really watch much Late Night talk shows these days with Letterman pretty much mailing it in every night and Conan just waiting to take over for Leno,the only one worth watching is Jimmy Kimmel.But I don't know what the fuck the suits over at NBC were thinking replacing Conan O'brien with Jimmy Fallon yeah that's right Jimmy Fallon.I hate that guy so much words don't describe it with his little smug laughter at all his jokes he was one of the worst all time "stars" on SNL period.So let me get this straight I will now get to watch Jimmy Fallon and Carson Daly back to back,god now all I have to do is set up a Twitter account and my life will be perfect.
