my company has put together a benefit event for the Teenage Cancer Trust, entitled 'Teenage Kicks 2008', which is set to go off later tonight (12 june 2008) at 93 feet east. the gist is pretty simple; 1) 20 pairs of white canvas vans have been sent to a whole array of artists to customize (including amongst others, D*FACE, EINE, Pete Doherty, Goldie and FGL's own Jacob Knill), then 2) they go on display during tonights event to 3) be bid on, via ebay, with all the proceeds going to TCT.
weve got 9 bands to play, a live graffiti wall and a half pipe / street course to ride - featuring FIXED GEAR LONDON! YEAH! - and the whole thing will be televised and broadcast live via the main website, and via London Ink (discovery channel tattoo show).
if anyones free / bored of free range / in the hood COME THROUGH! it should be wicked...
