Being on the East Coast, we’ve been wondering what all of the artwork from This, Los Angeles‘ inaugural show looks like. Wonder no more as it is all on their flickr account here. A sampling is after the jump.

This Saturday in Los Angeles. see pics of the install here

We told you about Thom Yorke’s new supergroup last week, and if you were fortunate enough to be in LA this weekend (and had the cash) to see the shows, lucky you. For those of us who were not privy to the excitement, NME has a play-by-play and setlist up from the first night. After the jump, we have put together a bunch of bootleg videos of the performance.

These guys are a riot and have a show opening in Los Angeles tonight. Their work is off the charts as well.

We wish we could have been in Cali for the Seventh Letter x New Era Art Show Party but, hey, Revok put up some pics and we added Mr. Artorialust. So it was kind of like we were there. Original flicks by Linus Hentu.
(Thanks Tim!)

Have look at the website for more information. Also, take a look at the online auction as there are some really sweet one-of-a-kind decks in there.

Apparently, after some sandblasting and the application of anti-graffiti coating, Studio Number One is becoming a buff spot.
Shepard Fairey was quoted through an email saying…
“When graff seeped into the raw brick it was very difficult to clean, the building is historic and I love and want to protect the brick. The city was never any help with removal. Graffiti is par for the course.”
Well, it is a nice looking building.
