Some extra photos from Belgium
For your viewing pleasure, even though my guess is that you are quite sick of it. But then again, not many of you will get to Europe to see it, so fuck it, here is more.
Some photos by Davy Van Laere.
The booksigning...
A close up of a photo of Austin, and Arto too...
Art or something like it.
The director of the museum asked me to deface a book by an artist he didn't like, so I had some other people help me deface it. This is Peter Rogiers defacing the book.
Running with a strange crowd.
Kevin's sketchbook film.
"That is so MySpace bro..." – Teenage skater kid
Big Polaroids.
???
The hotel I stayed in while I was in Gent for a month.
Gent.
Heavy discussion. "Who should we kick off the team?"
The booksigning again...
Booksigning ephemera being created.

942 dollars for that Ebay thing? Unemployment is like only 800 dollars a month. Big spenders, I need to save my pennies to buy some grown-up doodles.
These photos aren't boring, it's not like you're bragging about yourself.
Uh,oh. Who's getting kicked off? It looks more like
"Hey,that asshole is back." Said kevin
"shit." sighed the green sweater man.
Deanna reminds me of Samus Aran.
not so much myspace,more borderline creepy.
Your hotel looked like a factory that kids worked in and died making like Sofas or something.
I heard that when people hit 40 that's the saddest time in their life. Because people look back at what they accomplished and if their goals weren't met in life or wahtever then that's depressing.
See,these photos weren't boring. I typed this huge comment.

I didnt know that those were the polaroids those came out really nice.
Jgonz if that was a factory for kids then there wouldnt be so many windows, and it would be underground all hidden and shit.

Not boring at all.
I wonder what you had to say about Portland, because I'm absolutely in love with Portland. I wish to live there someday.
I think we should try to get JGonz down here. Save your pennies for that, bro.
Is everyone in Europe super hip or what...?
Are you insinuating Ed reaching 40?
I think older people are way more awesome.
More stories to hear.
& apparently more sweaters.
Kick off whoever sells the most boards.
Carolyn loves the photo of you focusing on the signing.
I'm still really bummed I didn't/don't get to see this.
Maybe next time.

Jacob,you could push mongo in the deepend of the transition at Burnside while being fully padded. And have Carolyn bring her Razor scooter. You'll be popular. Jk
Money would be better spent traveling,experiences in life are priceless,boi-ee.
I was thinking that kid factory turned into a hotel after people decided Human rights applied to children as well. A super badass could dive from their room into that lil river.

Be cool, helmets rule.
I will be playing some shows coming up.
You said you'd come if I ever played a show locally.
If everyone could try & help me figure out a stage name.
Preferably funny, or badass.

I bought the drinking the kool-aid book from the website link above. It's been a month and the payment went through but no contact from Morel. I emailed asking the status of my order a few days ago, but no answer. I'm really bummed. Anyone else try to order that book online?

I'm only 37.

Derek, I emailed the guy today and forwarded your comment.

@ Derek..
my shipment was also delayed probably because the flight traffic was closed, in parts of Europe, for a week and half due to vulcanic ashes and stuff..

Been there at the opening on april 2nd and stayed till 2 o clock.We came from germany and drove 5 hours to see the show.Even after seen it all live, it won´t get boring seeing pics of it on this site.The show was great, or let´s say impressing, mostly enjoyed the b/w cluster with all those icons and cathedrals.Oh and Ed signed a VHS cassette of the 1990 World Championships I still had from back then, 20 years....Thanx again;)

"Hey old women?!"
"Man!"
"Old Man, sorry. What knight live in that castle over there?"
"I'm 37.."
"What?"
"I'm 37. I'm not old..!"
Name that movie.
Dead Templeton?
Too high school punk...

You want Fedora indie, or hippie acoustic?
So we can only buy that Kool Aid book from that one website?
