How to:Graffiti for A**HOLES 101

OK, so you want to be a graffiti A**hole??---OK, SURE!! here is a perfect crash course..

1) Be SURE to paint your "piece" in a very remote place where no one but fishermen, kayakers, and local wildlife watchers can enjoy it!! preferably by the river facing a floodwall - idiot!!

3) Make SURE you dump your paintbrushes, rollers, half full paint cans, and rolling trays INTO the stream which feeds directly into the river... esp if it is a nursery for baby ducks like you see in this picture... (the baby ducks were getting a lesson on "how to swim" the day these pictures were taken- i was not giving those lessons though)

4) Be SURE to dribble the rest of the paint from your roller on a rock and sign your name with it!!

5) go home, put on that same old WU Tang Clan CD, "huff" some of that leftover spraypaint, and tell yourself you're "representing hip hop" -- SURE!!

IF YOU NEED VISUAL EXAMPLES for "HOW TO BE A GRAFFITI A**HOLE" - click the picture below.



PS: IF YOU DUMP PAINT INTO THE RIVER-- YOU WILL SOMEDAY DRINK IT!!!

Tonight on If Music Could Talk

Tonight on "If music Could Talk" (wrir 97.3 FM), Bob Campbell (aka Dean McNew), will make his second appearance on Richmond Independent Radio featuring live recordings (1976!) of his band- Dean McNew and Country Gold-- Live at the Silver Saddle in Des Moines, Iowa.. These performances were recorded on a second hand reel to reel machine and sat in a drawer, untouched, for 30 years. The fact that they can now be heard again after all these years is a true miracle. This is REAL country music with lots of soul and a little Rock n Roll. Dean's band, Country Gold, was popular not only among young couples who wanted to dance but also truck drivers for miles around who would pack the house every night at Silver Saddle just to hear Dean and the boys play. Bob's CD, "Bob Campbell LIVE" was released this past year and ALL of the proceeds have gone to fight Breast Cancer and provide free mamograms to people who cant afford the tests-- Breast Cancer claimed the life of his dear Aunt, Malinda Lou Campbell. And right now, nothing means more to Bob than to be able to dedicate these recordings to his Aunt & donate the proceeds to help fight Breast Cancer.
You can find his CD here
