Rumble in the Park
Late last night I scored a last minute ticket to what will either be a historic election celebration or a historic election riot in Grant Park. Either way Critical Intent will be ring side at tonight's main event to capture the madness or memories of what will surely be history in the making.

A World of Pure Indigestion
Congratulations to Chicago's own native daughter, Anne Gemkow for winning the Golden Ticket. Well, sort of. Gemkow managed to win a brand new Jeep by chomping her way through 700-lbs of chocolate in the shape of a 2008 Jeep Liberty. Part of the car maker's "Sweetest Day The Jeep Way" challenge in Cleveland, Gemkow was pitted against other contestants as they searched for a winning mark encrusted somewhere in the chocolate car. Start with the exhaust pipe, who ever thought this up wasted a lot of brain cells, time and money.

Lake Effect
56 E. Walton Street
The grand opening of the new Burton Snowboard shop in Chicago was held last night complete with man-made snow that adorned the outside of the shop front. WGN News Chicago referred to it as a “publicity stunt” while showing three separate clips of the store in under 40min during primetime TV. I call that effective.

No Sleep till Bushwick pt.2
flyer designed by Skewville.
ADHOC gallery 49 Bogart Street, Brooklyn.
Yuri Checking out prints for sale.
The Opening night of 'No Sleep till Bushwick' went swimmingly. We arrived at the ADHOC gallery in Brooklyn sometime around seven to find the space already filled with kids clutching cans of pbr and listening to the dj set. The small gallery was filled with work from Bast, Aiko & Skewville along with special guest, Chris Mendoza from the Barnstormers. The highlight of the night included the custom air vents placed around the gallery reworked to spell out "FRESH" and a series of mischievous spray paint wielding rabbits printed on old subway service signs. As the night grew to a close, we ducked out for some more drinks and free pizza at the famous Alligator lounge, passing beneath one of Skewville's iconic wooden shoe cut-outs dangling from a telephone wire as the sun dipped beneath the Manhattan skyline.
Show runs until July 16th.
