Cardinology

I couldn't resist buying this book as Ryan Adams is one of my favorite artists of all time. All photos were taken by the Cardinal's lead guitarist, Neal Casal, and they don't disappoint. These pictures have an "insiders guide" vibe to them. Any Ryan Adams fan will really enjoy this book in my opinion.

Industrial Furniture

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on this guy but I have no money so probably won't. This was refurbished with wood recently as it used to be all metal, originally from a milk factory in Romania, and dated around the 20's I think.

Land of A Million Clothes

Attempted to do some shopping at a huge warehouse of old clothes but the second I walked in, got insanely overwhelmed. I managed to walk away with a couple of caps and t's. I'm gonna stay away from naming the location and place because a couple designers and stores may get angry if I disclose the info. But, if you really want to know, send an e-mail or comment my way.

Old School Charm

I recently had family in town and every time they come, my grandmother insists on staying at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. The hotel itself has been around for a while and has a really cool vibe to it and embraces its heritage which is nice with all the crap hotels (SLS, and any other Bolthouse establishment) that are around this city.


Another classic beverly hills establishment : The Polo Lounge @ the Beverly Hills Hotel

February Sun

It's been really nice here as of late in LA so I went over to a friend's place and had some drinks on her patio. Pretty amazing view I must say....
Sidenote : Walter Sobchak & Dwight Yoakam both lived at this pad.

Wayne Coyne's Digs

Mr. Coyne has always had a peculiar taste and for those wondering what his actual taste in things like art, furniture, and other interiors, can now rest easy. This is definitely a unique home to folks around the OKC area, but props to Wayne for going 100% on complete weirdness.

the only one that actually matters!
