Blank Walls

The walls were painted blank. There was colors, brushes, refreshments. HWH III spinning records. Leif made a movie. Here it is.

Youngdahl

I don't know what motivated Youngdahl to get off his barstool at the Viking (I like to imagine that he's still there) and wander over to the art school for a beer. I managaged to capture the moment on film. He called me "kid" for over a decade. How many pool games did this gentleman actually witness from his vantage point in the Viking?

wbsac sign

one of the various wbsac signs. anyone know who did this one? was it me? some of my memory from the last year or so is a bit on the fuzzy side. i may have done the stenciling, maybe not. i at least cut the wbsa stencil.

i also declared the dollar sign to be the official wbsac symbol. the logic was that the dollar was orginally the property of the people, and then somehow the evil powers that be made it into a dirty word for us. i wanted to reclaim the dollar, make it ours again. why should we be afraid and disgusted by money?

who painted the cock?

fat chick riq

Ricky grabs the mike to relate the story of "How Riq broke his dick". An enchanting tale if there ever was one.

naomi, ryan

Naomi and Ryan, after playing a County Z gig at the WBSA? I think so. Faythe Levine's photos are on the walls so it must have been her show..

wbsa stage 2

Before the space at 404 Cedar was secured, the wbsa went through a few early phases. The first was in the back yard of the hard times cafe, under the guidance of Jeff "Uncle Hoodlum" Petrich. After that it shifted to the upstairs apartment of 619, a house that is no more, thanks to the omnipotent impotence of Augsburg College.
Anyways, thats where this video was shot. Thanks to showbet and his video archives.
