GET REAL AND NICE TRY

Tonight at the Egyptian Theater
TWS “Get Real” and People Creative’s “Nice Try”

Sadly I will not be able to attend due to i have wee one watching duty tonight while my cousin goes and delivers his package...i mean A package...

Anyways, here's the teasers for the two flicks I'm bummingly going to miss....






To my surprise, right when i was about ot post this sad sad blog my cousins comes in and tells me i can go to the premier.

Funny the way things work out. haha
So now just stay tuned for the write ups to come later one

probably by far one of my favortie commercials

i fucking love this shit

HOW THE NORTHWEST WAS ONE PREMIER

OK so seriously one of the funnest premiers I've been to in a while.
The video was EPIC and on tip of it the environment had high fives and good vibes flowing throughout.
The show was held at Evo and packed full with at least 100 people supporting each and every rider in the video. Cheering and woo-hooing for every rider throughout the whole film was awesome. The feeling was just amptness on top of stokedness. Just being in the jam packed shop - you couldn't help but wanna strap in right there.

The video had an obvious western theme. Kinda like how Familia had the mafia deal - these NW boys were cowboys. The boys couldn't have been more pumped. All little boys grow up pretending to be cowboys and now they're all in a video together being cowboys AND snowboarding. BAM. 2 birds 1 video. You could tell they had fun making it and we all had a blast watching it. Big up to my friend Joe Bosler who had the big ender. Stoked for him.

here's the teaser to check out - i highly recommend spendin' the cash and gettin' this one for that dusty shelf of yours.

my friend Ryan was the bunny that night... so good

After the show was my friend Kumara's "IM ON A BOAT" birthday party here are some shots from that...

this is Cowboy.

who wants a mustache ride...any takers?

The night over all was awesome i was stoked to see some people and even more stoked to hangout with them for the remainder of the night. I'm going to miss Seattle more than i thought i would. it's a shame i love Mammoth so much...mid season trip? I think so.

NEW PAINTINGS

So Chris, whom the paintings are for, finally came and picked them up last night. I was holding off on posting them so that he wouldn't get a sneak peak. Now that they're off my living room floor and on his living room wall, I can share with you one of my favorite pieces I've done in a while.

It's a series of three pieces on 24"x36" canvas spray paint and acrylic





It was like i was 15 and giving my child up for adoption...almost brought tears to my eyes while placing them in the back seat of Chris's car...but i had my real baby inside waiting for me aka new G-Twin setup.
Trades are SO GOOD.

Make Art - Not War

STANCE MOVIE

So i just finished watching STANCE, the all girls snowboarding vid. Man oh man are these girls steppin it up for woman snowboarding. they make me proud to have a vagina and ride a snowboard.
these girls are killing it with the back country shots and the huge drops. Not to mention uppin the annie in the park section.

you need to watch it for yourself.

STANCE FILM from Jmills ENT. Jeremy Miller on Vimeo.

It makes me even more stoked to go shred here pretty soon...hopin for some inner city snow here in Seattle before i make the trek back to Mammoth...::sigh::

ROBBERY

So my mom and my little brother house got broken into tonight
im super shook up abou tit
i really just want to be there for them

my moms new laptop that she treated herself to was taken
my little brothers laptop which is his life was taken
my moms savings of 3k for emergency and x-mas is gone
among other things

im glad they're fine but it still erks me to know that someone came into my moms house and took stuff that she works so hard for
for a single mother - nothing comes easy-but it can go just like that.
i dont doubt that it was some dirty fucking mexican

i begged her not to live in Indio-scum bucket of a town.

kills me to imagine what my mom is going through right now

so im going to ask for donations just to help them replace the things that were taken
anything and everything helps
the button is on the page and the $$$ will go into a PayPal account that i manage

thank you in advance for your prayers, cares, and hopeful donations
