For those who may not of visited the blog yet, explain the vibe, the inspiration and where you'd like to see it go. Its a lot about a kid from New England who moved to the West coast. Where there once was black there is now a lot of color. Santa Cruz through Salem eyes. That and its about the good things left in America, even if those things are sometimes from Japan. You recently gave yourself a tattoo and you also tattooed your gal Hanna, which is really cool. Give me a run down of your tattoos and the meaning. Yeah she’s a tattoo artist so we hang out in the living room and tattoo each other sometimes. I think the term for it is scratching - living room tattoos that is. I gave myself a skull wearing a bandit mask with the word “speed” on its forehead. I gave her “LTD” for livin’ the dream. Tattoos are just good markers in time, but more than anything I want to look good in black and white photographs.
What's your current gig with Levi's? There are a lot of exciting changes happening at Levis that I am happy to be a part of. Just worked on the Opening Ceremony project, the Fort at SXSW, the press event in NYC... I’m working now to rebuild their custom shops and also in a few ways to improve the store experience through special product. Pretty soon there will be another road trip or two. I have a varied, interesting role that I’m super grateful to have. I’m into the history of the brand and how were using that to make it new and great again. Like myself, you love the open road and the adventure that lies ahead. What's the next trip for One Trip Pass? Installation? Also another road trip in the works – more soon!
