Mission Mission

There is an artiful truck that I often see parked on Capp. I am not sure if this is the same one with a new set of designs or we have a second vehicle now amongst us. Feel free to click any image to see how bad the iPhone photos look at full res:

Okay, MJ did not say this himself, but whatever.  The art was found in the men’s room at Mission Bar.  A much better photo by Rick Audet indicates that this has been around since the fall of 2007, but it’s new to me.

16th near Shotwell. The wall that’s always tagged and buffed. Hopefully we’ll be able to see this one for a little while.

Go Yanks. That’s right. I’m a Yankees fan, so what. So is this guy.

Shitty Kitty was at Shotwell’s in full force trying to lop off people’s heads for Bastille Day.  Sure, paper cuts hurt, but you’ll never sever the spine this way.

Today we recommend a local blog we just discovered: Delicate Adventures, by reader ape breath, is largely drawings of historical figures as eggmen. Other egg-related fun rounds out the content.

My favorite so far is Ty Cobb.

All I have to say is that I wouldn’t want to smoke any DMT prior to looking at that thing.

(Eater SF has the scoop)

Tangobaby found some anti-authoritarian graffiti on Clarion Alley.  Look, the Government does not listen to every phone call, they just record them so they can listen to them.

Yesterday’s Orange Alley party was a success. Lots of new murals are up, including this high-concept choose-your-own-adventure-style one starring Shitty Kitty and Godzilla. Burrito Justice has closeups and further evidence of the alley’s transformation:

ゴジラ Vs. Shitty Kitty

Nolehace spotted this awesome stencil mural of skeletons on wheels.  Yet again, another photographer does not want you to see a larger version of the photo.  Covered.  In.  Lamesauce.

This afternoon from 1-5pm, there’s a party in Orange Alley. The fine folks at Receiver are hosting:

We’ll have the grills going as well (meato, non-meato), so bring something to char and/or to drink! [...]

Some reasons to come:

* Sunday will be the last weekend day to view Sarah Applebaum’s show “Soft Core”. Check it out before we take it down!
* Porous Walker (AKA Jimmy DiMarcellis) will be there painting up a mural.
* Kyle Ranson’s band, Pale Hoarse, will play a set.
* Charlie Callahan (that’s him up there working on his mural) might also be around playing some fine tunes.
