Know Tiser. One of the best attitudes towards everything ever.
I know a few writers. A lot of writers are cocks. On the whole it's a bit self absorbed ego driven bullshit. (Massive generalisation)

It's in Debnams Road, Bermondsey which regulary gets used for film / tv location works including the film Green Street.

YouTube- Mutate Britain: Amazing Street Art NOW OPEN DURING DECEMBER

Looks like it would be better after dark.

im all for the legal stuff and these "street art" exhibitions but theres nothing better than standing at the station and seeing a fresh burner pull in(only happened 3 times to me) or seeing fresh trackside stuff.
i fucking love graff.

Imagine living in NYC in the late 70's when every train was painted, I would have been happy to sit at a station all day watching trains roll in and out

there used to be loads in liverpool with dope question marks next to them and there is still a pretty big but faded outline by fort knox

have been a longtime admirer of wk's work, especially his street art

I remember these two Swet and Zomby were the shit

Zomby's still graffing as far as I've seen ;)

Yeah mostly legal stuff these days and t-shirts. His characters were to sick.

Writers Delight have got pics of all the stuff in London, old and recent. Plus a lot of interviews with writers and black book pictures etc....

its not like nothings getting done coz a lot of stuff is but trains are getting buffed before they even leave the lay-up or depot. southwest trains have a zero tolerance policy so not much is rolling. but i think it would be better for everyone to ease up a bit on the buff. less money spent on cleaning, brightens up the morning, writers see stuff burning, its all good.

Tell me about it, that bloody 'broken window' theory in action once again. I'm still pretty baffled as to the reasoning behind the criminalisation of graffiti, when it first came about it was kids wanting to decorate their surroundings. I can understand that not everyone likes or appreciates it but I still don't see how it actively negatively impinges on anyone else. In Italy, or at least Roma, there's a lot higher tolerance towards graffiti which means artists get to spend a lot more time creating nicer pieces as opposed to the quicker bombing style throwups and tags due to fear of being caught. I spent every tram journey in Roma glued to the window watching hundreds of pieces go by, some obviously quite old too, which was nice to see. From what the locals told me, if it's any good then it's pretty unlikely it'll get removed.

theres a few known tags round liverpool and a dead faded dub

A lot of the commonly seen stuff in Liverpool was done by Stock. Nice bloke but in my honest opinion it didn't develop much whilst I was there. He seemed to have a bit of a hold over the cities best spots.

Andy Seize anyone?

yeah some people i know went to paris and said that it was fucking amazing, just like london except everything better. better dubs with longer time taken, steel running, better handstyles and of course the "euro style" .
but some good stuff has come out of having a short time period to paint in, harder to reach plots and definitely BLOCKBUSTERS. there areny many blockies on br lines.
