Day 2 - One Way or Another road trip

Art

Saturday morning we woke to gather everyone's work and set up the first of 3 shows. Pnut wasted no time in banging out 12 pairs of one-of-a-kind Vans made available at HVW8.

Andrew Pommier hanging close, but not too close to Matt Irving's pieces.

The show opened on schedule and people came from all over. (art by Eric Anthony)

Even the folks not drinking were hyped.

Isaac and The Phantom street artist.

Fos is a fantastic human, and even better story teller.

Everyone and their dog knows that.

Donny Miller's "street art".

No night is complete without someone getting a tattoo. Pnut will remember this show forever.

As will Ben Horton. The art show turned into an impromptu dance party around the time when it should have probably been shut down, causing a couple casualties. Sorry Ben!

Our bellies weren't victim though - Patrick, Justin, Fos, Caleb and I retired to Swingers for some late-night breakfast pasta and grilled cheeses.
