damage and grief
all over the news today is the tragic story of the killing of Dimebag Darrell and 3 others at a Damageplan show last night in Columbus, Oh. all reports are that Dimebag Darrell was a great guy in addition to being a legendary Metal musician. it’s an incredibly sad story. but it really hit us as we walked to work through Times Square today and caught this touching and moving scene as this young man stood holding his sign up to traffic hoping for a connection with other grieving fans…

we stopped to exchange a few words and “he lives on” moment. the kid was very cool. we wished him the best, as we walked away he went back to his post. fucking love this city man.
