Go see Winnebago Man, a documentary about the infamously, foul-mouthed motherfucker with shit for brains, Jack Rabney. He became famous when a vhs tape of the outtakes from a Winnebago sales video he starred in hit the YouTube. One of his fans decided to find out more about the viral video phenom and made a documentary of the journey.

heres the original Winnebago Man clip from YouTube

and heres the trailer for the documentary

Featured in Color 8.3, artist Shaun Gladwell has his first Canadian solo show happening right now in Toronto at Georgia Scherman Projects, Inc.

"The exhibition keystone is a new videowork and installation based on Gladwell’s footage of Canadian freestyle professional skateboarder Kevin Harris performing 360 degrees spins, and a continuation of Gladwell’s on-going Centered Pataphysical Suite with subjects engaged in different types of sport or street culture activity. The sculptural component is comprised of a range of unaltered, new, used and distressed Harris-designed skateboards with graphics that feature a cartoonish, skeletal Mountie holding a beaver. The graphics draw an analogy to Joseph Beuys’ landmark 1965 performance “How to Explain Pictures to a Dead Hare,” a key reference in Gladwell’s prior works, and hence the title of this exhibition."

on until Oct 16

"If I were speaking to someone I care about, I would tell them to go somewhere quiet and secluded like the middle of the forest, and maybe listen to it on headphones, or in the car at night when you’re driving." - John Holland

Salem's new album is dropping on September 21. Front man John Holland told Jackie Linton exactly where someone should listen to it when she interviewed him for the upcoming issue of Color Magazine, which is also dropping in September.

If you can't wait to hear some new shit from Salem, then download their mixtape, I BURIED MY HEART INNA WOUNDED KNEE. That should sustain you until the full album is released.

Who knew Canada played such a big role in the life of an infamous French gangster? Killer Instinct: Mesrine stars the lovely Vincent Cassel in the title role of Jaques Mesrine a man who was idolized by the public for his crime filled life. The movie is based on the autobiography written by the kidnapping, killing, bank robbing, prison escaping man and had to be broken up into two parts (2hrs each) to get all the details of his life covered. Go see the movie. you'll be blown away by the acting, directing and the story.
